Look in the fucking mirror champ
You're trying to tell me a rapidly developing, well-resourced country will hit some arbitrary technology threshold because communism. You know, the political system that put the first man in space a generation after most of the USSR wasn't even literate.
Don't you think that you are over-reading a little? I never brought up communism nor any socio-economical ideology for that matter. Quick tip for you: try to read some about economics and China if you nurture any expectation that it is a communist state other than in name.
If you don't think China is communist, why do you think it will hit whatever arbitrary threshold you're imagining?
I think we know why
What does that mean? What does this have to do with the above?
Seems like you missed something if that's your interpretation
If that's the point you want to make, do back it up if you want others (i.e. anyone who cares, i.e. not me) to comment on that?
You're the one who made an assertion without backing it up in the first place. Its clear you don't know what you're talking about
