(W. E. Talk) Global Significance of China’s Human Rights Progress! (17.10.2022)
The three perspectives above show that the West has neglected the global significance of the remarkable development of China’s human rights, unceasingly criticized the specific detail and China’s human rights cases, and even magnify them to discredit China’s national image. These moves have gone against basic facts, reflected the West’s narrowness in theory and perspective, and reflect the West’s arrogance and even wickedness in diplomacy.
Certainly, the elaboration of the global significance of China’s human rights for human civilization progress, global human rights theory and practice, and developing countries does not mean that there’s no omission or inadequacy in China’s human rights. In fact, as the largest developing country, China is and will still be in the primary stage of Socialism over a long period of time, with great development potential for national income, environmental protection, social equity, legal development, cultural services, political rights, and other aspects.
Communist Parties from Around World Laud 20th CPC Congress – UK Not Mentioned! (17.10.2022)

There is no reason ‘why’ White (European) Communist Parties should be listed above Communist Parties a) representing non-White people, and/or b) Communist Parties representing non-White people that already have control of the ‘means of production’ and administer control of the socio-economic forces operating throughout their respective countries! Places like Laos, the DPRK and the many African countries are much more important than the UK, US and Israel, etc!
