"...These policies require an immense amount of planning, which market logic would simply not find tolerable..."

This here is the core of the issue. The Euro-colonial countres are ideologically wedded to a system that does not care about people or stability, and intrinsically does not value any kind of system to preserve stability and ensuring people have the basics of life.

In fact their systems are most profitable for the rich when there is volatility and instability. That is why thr rich doubled their wealth during COVID19 and are currently getting massively richer from years of needless wars in Ukraine, and the middle east.

You should also mention China does a lot bartering to avoid tariffs / sanctions which helps with food security. For example, Russia barters wheat for cars, Pakistan barters rice for fertilizer and Nicaragua barters beef and seafood for equipment.

You sound less like an actual writer and more like a communist sympathizer...perhaps less about the Chinese propaganda and more about what it's like to live under a regime that has such marvelous polices from your seeming prospective.

It's hilarious that someone probably living in the country that has a mafia for a govenrment, and paramiltary running around the streets kidnapping and even killing people.....says that OTHER countries are living under a "regime".

LOL Typical juvenile retort from an indoctrinated dummy. "I have no argument about the content. So, I'm just gonna call it Chinese propaganda by a communist sympathizer."

Appreciating a country taking efforts to make sure their population doesn’t go hungry is being a “communist sympathizer”.

Reevaluate your comment and reflect on where your values lie.
