public health insurance generally only covers about half of medical costs, with the proportion lower for serious or chronic illnesses.
China’s commercial health insurance is also proliferating. In 2020, the country’s commercial health insurance premium income amounted to 817.3 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 20%.
As of 2022, enrollment in China’s nationwide healthcare system is almost universal. However, these plans generally provide low levels of benefits.
It sounds somewhere between Germany and the US with Germany already being for-profit friendly for European standards. I.e. a forgot “to each according to their needs”.

Most jobs are normal and like the western world. While there are tons of valid criticisms like the protest one you mentioned, “strict homogeneity” is not one of them and just gives tankies more ammunition. There are way better arguments you can make from these images.
If you believe there are better arguments to be made, go ahead.
The streamers are up until, sometimes, past 3 am to make money off the rich. So much for your communist China. People need to lug all of their valuables with them to make fools of themselves to entertain the rich and powerful, comfortable and happy in their warm mansions, while the streamers have to shiver in cold temperatures just to make a few hundred bucks at most. A man is dressed as a literal clown, and the girls have to wear short clothes in winter.
And the bottom, yes, is commercialised, mass-produced art where you’re stuck in lines, competing with who can be the better artist (if there even is such a thing)—no food, no drinks, cramped with no escape. If your art is not arty enough for the elites, then you are the ‘worse kid,’ which is an ideology in China where there is always a better child—Failure is not an option.
I have yet to see both of these images be recreated in the Western World.
or China! Where you can’t protest the government or the banks and have to follow a strict routine of uniformity.
And have you seen their healthcare system? If Marx came back from the dead he would die from an heart attack when he found out about the CCP.

You can practically smell the classless, stateless, moneyless nature of their communist utopia.
What’s happening here? Some sort of massive outdoor school program?
It’s explained below
“They’re also racist, but that’s fine. At least I’m not conservative!”
What am I looking at?
The posters for Marvel films in China.
Chinese people really don’t like black people. So Disney, not wanting to disturb racist Chinese Audiences, removed black people from their posters.
Welp, that’s disappointing
Chinese movie posters where they remove black people
