Not even the Chinese believe this shit. The bolded's even funnier because in the case of the first things he lists all Party members receive a second superior tier of those versus the rest of the population. And the same applies to business, the CCP leadership are all wealthy elites whose fortunes have only been growing over the last two decades.
https://sccei.fsi.stanford.edu/china-briefs/how-much-does-party-membership-pay-measuring-impact-communist-party-membership-wealth wrote:- Analysis of two nationally representative surveys in China from 1995 to 2017 reveals that wealth (assets minus liabilities) of households with at least one CCP member is 21–24% higher than similar households without CCP members.
- The CCP wealth premium is explained in part by preferential access for CCP households to more valuable housing at lower prices compared to similar non-CCP households during the early years of housing privatization.
- The most recent survey (2013–2017) reveals the wealth of CCP households grew faster than similar non-CCP households, especially among the wealthiest 5%, driven primarily by higher levels of capital gains.
- For all wealth levels, CCP membership was a stronger predictor of wealth growth than level of education.
Quote:Since 1988, between 11% and 16% of China’s adult population has belonged to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Obtaining CCP membership is widely viewed as an important step in becoming part of China’s elite. But how much wealth advantage does CCP membership confer? New research provides the first empirical account of the evolution of the wealth gap between CCP and non-CCP households in urban China from 1995 to 2017.
....
Among the wealthiest decile of urban-registered households, 40% are CCP households. The share of CCP households at the bottom decile of the wealth distribution is much smaller (14%).
Quote:CCP wealth premium rooted in 1990s housing privatization policies. Until 1998, housing privatization involved discounted sales of state-owned apartments to tenants, primarily people with public sector jobs or strong political ties, such as CCP members and government officials. These policies ended after 1998, but their impact on wealth persists.
In the 1990s, CCP households enjoyed the greatest wealth premiums in the middle of the wealth distribution, but by 2013, the greatest premiums shifted to CCP households in the bottom 50%. This change is attributed to differences in how CCP and non-CCP households acquired housing. CCP households were 12 percentage points more likely to obtain houses at significant discounts through preferential policies that ended in 1998. Over time, these houses were on average 21% more valuable than houses purchased via the private market.
CCP households were less likely to self-build houses and more likely to either inherit or purchase homes through preferential policies, while non-CCP households invested more in self-built housing — typically the least profitable form of housing investment, especially for those at the lower end of the wealth spectrum. As a result, CCP households were better positioned to acquire high-value homes at lower prices, amplifying wealth disparities over time.

If they're happier now as a woman, cool beans, but being a man wasn't stopping him.

His intelligence isn't really up for debate. He has a double major in political science and communication. He isn't just some random streamer talking a bunch of shit. He is a very educated person.
And you call out that his positions are often whatever is in opposition to the US but it might be good to do some self-reflection on why that immediately triggers you. Is it because he hates the US and is biased, as you seem to imply, or is it because the US is a fucking problem and is often the direct cause of the world's problems?
Fucking lol. Imagine being impressed because a rich kid in the US has a double major in political science and communication.
Zeo is one of those dickheads who thinks someone is intelligent because they have a loud voice and shout the dissenting voices down. He's easily impressed by bluster and shouting. Exactly the kind of useful idiot authoritarians need to succeed. Blue MAGA indeed.

The sexuality of my children really doesn't concern me; I'm happy if they are happy. I did ask them to give me some grace as I adjust from she/her to they/them/it. I mean, I still call my Subaru my Jetta, even though I've owned two other cars since I last owned a Jetta in 2015. I'm going to slip up.
That's not where my conflict lies. I am proud of them and support whatever they want to do, however, we live in an extremely right-wing and religious town. I fully intend to support them however I can, but I also want to caution them about broadcasting their sexuality in this town. I want to prepare them for what might come their way and I don't want it to seem like I am trying to silence them or that I am not proud of them. I'm just concerned about their well-being. They identified as gay earlier in the year, so I don't know if their identity will change again or not. I've never been a 12-yr old female that identified as trans; this is new to me. I just want to be there for them and make sure they are as happy as they can be.
Just today I had to pull my son out of high school for the day because a classmate said "I feel sorry for people of the LGBTQ community for being "like that" and that "instead of throwing the Jews in the concentration camps like they deserved we should throw the gays in there instead". We are Jewish. Was that kid was being a garden variety fuck or was he deliberately saying that to my son because of his sister? I don't know.
I want them to be safe and I am struggling a bit on how to have that conversation. Any suggestions would be welcome. My apologies if this comes off rambling; the concentration camp comment has be a bit fired up. Your child, not your daughter.
