tbf mussolini was actually a socialist for like 5 minutes
Hitler fought for socialists too but lets keep that a secret
Exactly.
Marxism is a very young ideology and the CCP has known this.
Their best bet has always been to follow Western models to an extent
(China’s economic model is based on notions of liberal industrialization and finance)
This has led to an identity crisis ( Xi’s revival of the old Chinese aesthetic, socialism with Chinese characteristics)
The political model for non-western nations still seems to be pick-and-choose from the Western canon.
this a symptom of global cultural decline (ideological poverty) IMO
China's economic model is based on export-oriented state capitalism like Singapore or ROK or Japan all used to be/were

I think a lot of this has to do that the material developments that have taken place in the west were later spread to non-western nations either through trade or colonialism. In some cases there's inaccurate projection from western society to non-western societies, but I don't think there's anything wrong with non-western nations using the a***yses of capitalism by westerners, since the reason for this is just simply that capitalism developed there earlier.

At this particular time (2022: the height of neoliberalism)
I believe the West is lost (temporarily)
I believe, globally, that a lot of nations would benefit from steering away from the West, its ideas and models

I agree the west is f***ed, but western theorists can be critical of the order established in the west too like our boy Marx for example
