Yes, note how I said fairly genuine in its intention (as in, focused on preserving and spreading socialism, but in the end laid the seeds for an imperialist outlook when the USSR went revisionist).wait a second... weren't you defending stalin before?
Apparently a perquisite for socialism to be successful requires magic. Modernization, sovereignty and political influence (when the country had none of them before) seemingly do not matter. Using this logic, China's position from an impoverished warlord-ridden state in the 1930's to what it is today doesn't matter because China was certainly in a better position than Albania was in the 30's.Either way buddy, it has been, and still is, one of the poorest countries in Europe. I don't really care what Hoxha did, what King Zog did, or what the country is up too now. They are still one of the poorest countries in Europe.
So basically this:Notice where I said "I just threw around Imperialist since MrDie gets off to that."
Was a waste of time.And you are defending China, which in itself after Mao Zedong took power, was an imperialist power per say. It's influence that it exerted over Vietnam and North Korea is timeless. It's claim to Taiwan, is imperialist in nature. Just attempting to spread communism to other countries, in itself is imperialist.
