    The increasing rise of Fascism in America and many parts of Europe and you think puting Communist on “a list” for “security” has nothing to do with what that poem was talking about?

      There is a very vocal part of ml users, who are not Communist or socialist, but anti West and pro-China or pro-Russia.

      Point that Chinese workers are - according to Chinese labour law and Chinese statistics - exploited and work on average more than 6 days a week, and you’ll get banned (https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/14/11409).

      Point that soviet Russia was imperialist (or quote Mao saying that) and you will get banned.

        this study…

        found that migrant workers in China had good health. Overall, migrant workers engage in excessive overtime work to increase their income, despite the harm it causes to their health, and overtime work is more serious in the male groups. Income and labor market institutions are more important factors than health for migrant workers’ labor supply decisions. If there are fewer restrictions on workers’ work time choices and they can arrange their work more flexibly, the observed result should be that people with worse health should reduce their working time. So, the impact of health on the working hours of migrant workers depends on the labor market system. Income plays a compensatory role in the relationship between health and working hours and also serves as an incentive for workers to invest more time in their jobs. However, this effect is ineffective for workers who engage in excessive overtime work, where the health deterioration exceeds the compensatory effect of income on health. These findings enrich the literature on the interpretation of the relationship between health, welfare, and working hours among migrants.

          You can also read past first paragraph, to Figure 1, to see

          exploited and work on average more than 6 days a week

          Or you can continue to be, idk, whatever you are.

          Or I am missing your point, because you didn’t make one.

              I will assume you’re trying to make a point I am wrong, as you still did not make your point.

              Overall, migrant workers engage in excessive overtime work to increase their income, despite the harm it causes to their health

              With 48h average (same study, figure 1) while the legally allowed worktime is 40h a week 44h with overtime. I mean I don’t know if you’re deliberately obtuse, or what here, because you still dis not make your point.

              For comparison, same year:

              • USA average was 34.7h
              • Japan 33.4
              • UK 32.1
              • Germany 29.6

                you’re describing illegal working conditions. so is China a totalitarian oppressive society or is it intentionally exploiting migrant workers? you can’t have both.
