This is silly. Because even if Xi is a secret capitalist roader revisionist etc, which I don’t believe, he probably could explain dialectical materialism, having been raised and educated about Marxism.

Like Viktor Orban or Vladimir Putin could probably explain dialectical materialism, having both grown up under communism and being former communist party members. But obviously neither are communist.

Thanks for the reply. For the record I’m talking about exaggerating the tactical utility (or even outright lying) of highspeed rail so normal people can benefit, in a shit post at work to distract myself.

I guess the answer is to sell high speed rail as having benefit as military project like the interstate highway was.

Like we can have a million soldiers moved from east coast to west coast or vice versa or the borders in less than 6 hours type of thing,

Elon Musk the PayPal founder?

The others have given more concrete examples, so I’ll skip that and simply say that contradictions are resolved through practice. As in we can talk about the problems and solutions all day, but it only when we start to actually make the changes, do we create and engage with the problems and develop solutions in response.
