They donate not because of the goodness in their heart, but because they get tax cuts from it.
Furthermore, what does donation really accomplish when:
People are still suffering, regardless of how many charities there are and how much money they get;
Those wealthy donors are the reason people continue poor since they are only wealthy by exploiting other people's work.
Charities shouldn't need to exist in the first place.
That's the thing, you identified an issue, we constantly hear bad and scary stuff about China all the time, that's western propaganda trying to turn China into the enemy so whatever the west, mainly the US, wants to do, becomes justifiable.
You don't need to live there to know, at least partiatly, the reality of what goes on in the country nor it's international relations. I'm not from the US, but I do know all those things I just cited in my last comment. All you need are good sources. You can start by studying how China handles its international relations. You'll quickly realize that China doesn't threat, embargo or invade other countries.
If you are genuinely interested you can learn a lot by visiting Lemmygrad and Hexbear, there are communities there to ask for information, and as long as you're wanting to learn, you will be welcomed.
Also, Xi Jinping is not insane at all like the media likes to portray him. The statement is too broad for me to tackle any specific thing, tho.
I don't think China cares about human rights very much. And I would not be surprised if people gets killed and made to disappear if they are inconvenient.
Again, very broad statement, what human rights and what you mean by this? This probably comes from more propaganda led disinformation.
Also, China is a massive country with 1.4 billion people. Do you really think we wouldn't have proof of people being repressed, killed and disappearing? The people there aren't isolated from the internet, they can access beyond the restrictions easily with VPNs which are common, it would be easy to show this stuff to the rest of the world.
Protests happen all the time in China and people critique the government, just like basically any other country.
If you want the perspective of a foreigner living there, I recommend the youtube channel Felipe Durante, he speaks Portuguese but the auto translate on youtube should be good enough, at least for english.
Fucking hell. This isn't an opinion, it's a fact that the US is the enemy of the world. The US funds coups, destabilize, install military dictatorships, invades and bombs countries and it's the only country in the world to drop a nuclear bomb on people, and THEY DID IT TWICE.
Stop making "wHaT iFs" in your head and actually look at the reality of what China does. It's not even comparable.
Just why? Every single human being deserve to have access to housing, water, food, education, etc. We NEED those things.
Companies and corporations, want their workers healthy, housed, disease free, etc.
No they don't. They want to pay as little as possible for you to produce as much as possible, it's literally the logic of the system. Corporations don't care about their workers, customers or anyone but their owners and investors.
If they could slave people they would. And look at that, they actually do.
Just realized its a .world user, they can't see my comment lol.
The post is not talking in morally good/bad terms.
Also of course it is presented this way, memes are supposed to generate some sort of emotion, what did you expect?
If you were open to discussion you would have started it already, your use of ad hominem tells otherwise.
You seem to be at least a little bit interested, I suggest you watch some videos on youtube so you understand it better, the channel Second Thought would be a good place to start.
I'll try to answer your concerns below:
The current ideology of society is the ideology of its rulling class.
Human nature, if anything is much more about collaboration and collective effort than greed, that's how it has been for most of human history.
That is to say, we precisely see so much greed everywhere because we live in a system that heavily incentivizes individuality and greed. From the way we are taught to the media we consume, it's literally everywhere. We are heavily influenced to think and see things in this particular individualistic way.
A society that puts human needs and collective effort above profits have a different way of viewing and interacting with the world than the way we do in capitalist societies. Besides that, if your concern is people abusing power, there should be mechanisms in place to account for that.
My knowledge on this whole topic is not deep, but I guess something you could look up is democratic centralism to understand how hierarchy works in a marxist-leninist socialist state.
Also, my understanding is that marxist theory is only dogmatic in relation to it's method, as everything else about it adapts to the reality and the material conditions of the time and place it is to be put into practice.
In a socialist society you would be paid by how much work you do, you don't simply divide everything for everyone equally.
You work more you get more, you work less you get less.
Also, why would anyone need a 1000 apples for?
Everything is political, buddy. Maybe stop plugging your ears every time you see a drop of political discourse that you disagree with and start listening.
Oh, thanks I forgot it was called bangs. I used DDG a few years ago but missed some features from Google, so I ended up giving up on it, maybe I'll try again soon.
I use Brave Search on Firefox, but I mostly use the shortcuts it provides like !yt and !g. A few months back I mostly used it over google, but the search results more times than not have been worse in comparison for me.
How rich comming from someone that doesnt even understand how bullshit ancap is as an ideology.
Also, no one was claiming this piece of shit is a nazi or a fascist.
How about you iluminate us on how the fuck is someone that hates fascists an actual fascist?
Let's take a step back. Why does the majority of people suffer under capitalism? Because they have to live in a world where they don't get good, free healthcare, don't have a right to a house, don't earn nearly enough to live comfortably, don't have enough vacation, can't afford to take a trip, don't have time to enjoy their lives, are alienated from their work, have shitty jobs, work too much, etc, etc, etc.
That creates a necessity for charities for all the basic stuff everyone should have, but doesn't currently have. If we give free good healthcare for everyone, the need for charities to threat people disappears. If we give everyone a home, the need for charities for homeless people, disappear.
What??? You do know that most breakthrough advancements doesn't come from the private initiative right? It comes mainly from public, government expending, into research. This idea that private entities advance society is just a liberal propaganda lie that is peddled to us all the time since birth.
I'm not talking about making charities illegal, I, like every other communist in the world, am talking about solving the issue at it's roots, eliminating capitalism, and that requires eliminating exploitation through labor and eliminating the rich and insanely wealthy as a class.
