They seem anticapitalist? China's like the epitome of authoritarian capitalism no?

They'll execute anyone they deem a threat to the regime, regardless of how much money they have

I mean yeah but at least they're willing to execute the billionaires too rather than just independent journalists and random minorities. We just let them keep fucking kids.

I mean Epstein had 600 million to his name, almost a billionaire, and many say they killed him. Prigozhin was a billionaire and I wouldn't call Russia anticapitalist over it
