A colonial occupying settler force are not civilians.
Sub? This is not Reddit, buddy.
Also, why are you so opposed to the truth?
The quality of life has drastically gone down in the global south due to the global north. But sure, slavery and the pillage of the wealth of the global south was for the greater good, right? And of course, you wouldn’t watch anything that doesn’t fit your biases.
What makes you say that? Why 25 years particularly?
“It is because people nowadays cannot handle responsibility” - Neoliberals
Response to both 1 and 2:
because socialism isn't defined by how many people in a country have a certain level of wealth. socialism is the transitional period between capitalism and communism, where the proletariat hold state power and build the conditions necessary for communism. before you can have communism you need to have the productive forces in place to make that economically possible. China chose the route of allowing capitalist investment to help develop its productive forces, while maintaining state power and overall control of the economy in the hands of the Communist Party. they decided that it was better for the country to become wealthy unevenly at first, rather than to keep socialising poverty
What is socialism and what is Marxism? We were not quite clear about this in the past. Marxism attaches utmost importance to developing the productive forces. We have said that socialism is the primary stage of communism and that at the advanced stage the principle of from each according to his ability and to each according to his needs will be applied. This calls for highly developed productive forces and an overwhelming abundance of material wealth. Therefore, the fundamental task for the socialist stage is to develop the productive forces. The superiority of the socialist system is demonstrated, in the final analysis, by faster and greater development of those forces than under the capitalist system. As they develop, the people’s material and cultural life will constantly improve. One of our shortcomings after the founding of the People’s Republic was that we didn’t pay enough attention to developing the productive forces. Socialism means eliminating poverty. Pauperism is not socialism, still less communism
as it happens there did arise a great degree of wealth disparity, which the state has begun to tackle since Xi's leadership took over
and that's something they'll need to iron out over time
but the existence of billionaires isn't a reflection of the class character of the state

Can you please define what socialism is for me?
The way that you refute every piece of evidence and data, with excuses based on your own opinion, shows that you are not a logical person. You are just a racist right-wing apologetic who hates black people. I dont think that I can reach someone like that. I hope that some day you can see the light.
1- Nobody should have to embrace European culture. European culture is not superior to any other culture. Don’t be a Eurocentric moron.
2- America cannot be racist because of Obama? Are you 5? Things got pretty racist back then with people accusing Obama of being a Muslim terrorist and wanting to see his birth certificate because they didn't even believe that he was American. Also, as soon as his term was over Americans elected a racist fascists that enacted pretty racist policies that made lives of black people harder.
3- What kind of logic is that? Just because some black people do well doesn’t mean that systematic racism doesn’t exist. That is like saying that because some Jewish people didn’t get killed the Holocaust never happened. Or like saying that because some native Americans survived, the American Holocaust didn’t happen.
You keep spewing the same bullshit right wing rhetoric.
Here is some starter reading material for you about what systematic racism.

You are an ignorant and racist dickhole. You know shit of black culture and all you are doing is victim blaming. Are you White? Why am I even asking? Of course you are white. Only a white neoliberal would believe the “I was able to do it, even though I had white privilege, therefore you can too”. You know shit and your opinion means garbage. Go educate yourself and learn fucking history, maybe even make black friends before spewing shit on a topic that you know nothing about.
Weird to bring atrocities up? Get the fuck out . I will bring up all their atrocities. You can’t silence us!
