Your premise is that China had already achieved socialism and then went backwards towards capitalism but in reality they were a semi-feudal semi-colonized agrarian state, had a communist revolution, and began building towards socialism which is a process that takes generations. If socialism comes after capitalism and capitalism comes after feudalism, it means that with China being a feudal pre-industrial society during their revolution, they must enter into and move through a capitalist phase to develop and expand the means of production and socialize labor in order to create the conditions to build socialism. Socialism can not be built directly out of feudalism, just like capitalism couldn’t come directly out of slave economies.
The key is that the entire capitalist phase of China was controlled by a Communist party with the express goal of building socialism, unlike every capitalist nation without a dictatorship of the proletariat, where the express goal was to build capitalism in order to make money for the capitalists. It should be obvious at this point if you look at the metrics: Chinese people have a higher quality of life, more purchasing power, greater social welfare, and virtually none of the key social problems that the capitalist core countries have, despite the capitalist countries having vastly more developed economies earlier and vastly more resources readily available through colonial plunder and chattel slavery. China is very clearly run by true Communists because if not, they wouldn’t have any of these things, and would look more like India or any other nation in the Global South.
After the word “eugenics” became recognized as a bad thing post WWII, the very large base of eugenicists in science and academia suddenly became “geneticists.”
Just to be clear, I don’t know Hudson personally and haven’t heard him say anything antisemitic. I am looking at all the info I have as someone that doesn’t know him (PB academic, long history paid by banks and oil companies, has chosen to post on a fascist website for many many years and was made aware of it and said he’d investigate and chose to stay, doesn’t write about anything revolutionary - just economics, gets a lot of traction on the left over the last few years with the idea that the US needs to reindustrialize as if supporting industrial capitalists against financial capitalists will save the US economy, writes about jews being financiers who killed jesus to keep their jewish financial control…) and the pattern starts to become pretty clear.
The reality of bigotry, antisemitism especially, is that people can learn and harbor it their whole lives without ever realizing it. They can replicate and disseminate it and explain it in ways that might seem logical, couching it in what they believe to be totally unrelated, but really be driven by it on a fundamental level. It did not take many Jewish comrades of mine very long to get red flags from the info that is available about Hudson that I mentioned above, to many Jewish people it was pretty obvious pretty quickly when he was self publishing on a website that literally has schematics for gas chambers on it.
sure but Hudson isn’t talking about communism, he is a PB white guy who made a lot of money from banks and oil companies who writes about economics and intentionally posts his works on a fascist website.
