    However, its economic development relies on the exploitation of its people, just as it did during the development of liberal capitalism. Moreover, the Communist Party of China can no longer represent the Chinese proletariat. The targets of the CCP’s anti-terrorism drills are workers who are owed wages, and the policy is “If you can avoid arresting them, don’t arrest them.” against the capitalists.

        The market economy determines that it will inevitably produce exploitation and oppression, because the so-called “national entrepreneurs” (that is, capitalists) must exploit workers in order to make profits. In addition, the Chinese Communist Party cannot represent the Chinese people. Now many Chinese people are always inexplicably “represented” without knowing it.
