You've got nothing here dude, take the L. You're clearly ignorant of what AES actually looks like historically, how it's formed, how it responds to pressures and challenges. You're just going by this vague, largely aesthetic conception of what socialism looks like, that you probably got from some youtuber that call themself a libertarian socialist or some other such incoherent shit, and you're castigating a real socialist governmemt attempting to reckon with the real world because they haven't waved a magic wand and enacted your asinine Disneyland version of socialism.

AES

Cringe.

The CCP absolutely has the power to redistribute wealth from billionaires... except the CCP is full of rich oligarchs themselves that are only occasionally purged, so that's not gonna happen.
