TLDR: China is the only significant force in renewables adoption in the world, because the country uses central planning to advance its environmental objectives. The West’s reliance on the profit motive to drive green energy is not working and will not work because renewables are not profitable enough.
This article is the most positive I have ever seen any mainstream news be towards China and central planning. I don’t think there is a single “but at what cost” statement in the entire article. Frankly, I’m impressed this managed to get past the TIME editors.
The author, Brett Christophers, wrote The Price is Wrong: Why Capitalism Won’t Save the Planet and Our Lives in Their Portfolios: Why Asset Managers Own the World, and Rentier Capitalism: Who Owns the Economy, and Who Pays for It?, among others, published via Verso Books.

Wtf is going on in the comments section???
Anyway, with China making so much progress on so many sectors, it will soon become increasing hard for westerners to deny China’s, and by extension, socialism’s achievements. At long last, socialism has begun to surpass capitalism economically.

Many instances are being hit by a smooth criminal with a bash script the last couple days. It’s annoying.
Right on track with the government’s stretch planning, if I recall correctly
In other news gravity is real and there are hats
hats? straw hats… Straw hat pirates… ONE PIECE REFERENCE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Other than the “communism no iphone” types, I think awareness of socialism really is increasing among Redditors.
“Communism no iphone” is such a stupid meme. If you can’t make iphones without exploitation, imperialism and environmental destruction, then maybe there shouldn’t be any iphones! But no, spoiled, entitled brats need to have their treats and their toys no matter how many people have to suffer for them. (Also, Chinese socialism is currently managing perfectly fine to make smartphones, but that’s beside the point…)

Spam was wild, had to block the guy so my notifications wouldn’t die. Big thanks to him though for putting my post on the front page of Active and Hot.
