It’s kind of fun to see you recognize that there are assumptions at play, and then do the same yourself.
Technology as a threat. What if the threat is not the technology, but the west’s inability to keep their resources from being stolen by shareholders and billionaires?
Because that is what is holding us back from developing and making the future ourselves.
we just watch all of our resources go to infighting, incompetent management egos, and mega-yachts and fighting progress.
China produced more billionaires than the US this last year. Clearly things are not what they appear anymore.
Also, the West has been completely fascist for a very long time thus the system is supposed give all the resources to the wealthy. Democracy and China’s communism are just window dressings for capitalists.

Now that they’re successful you want to claim its capitalism? Nope. Its socialism, always has been.
The protest in Tiananmen Square were anti-western capitalist reforms. Sad to know you can’t be bothered with actual history.
There was never socialism or communism. It was a dictatorship that turned fascist.
You want proof? Billionaires buddy.
