Is China communist? They certainly produce a lot of pollution and plastic. Videos I’ve seen out of North Korea lately also show people using plastic everything.
But let’s put that aside, and assume the whole world was communist and repaired things (ignoring that repair also happened under capitalism). Is there no pollution? Industry? Seems like even if the pollution is less, we still would just end up in the same place eventually.
China is as communist only because it calls itself so, but doesn't follow any of Karl Marx's communist rules anymore since 1978 or so. It's basically a capitalist dictatorship at this point.
North Korea also calls itself the Democratic people's republic of Korea, you think it's democratic?
And China pollutes a lot because it's the West's sweatshop so rich countries are outsourcing there pollution there by consuming all those cheaply goods made in China at the profit of the western corporations.
>Seems like even if the pollution is less, we still would just end up in the same place eventually.
How so? Capitalism demands virtually infinite growth long term along with visible growth on a yearly or quarterly basis.
