The only places where it’s possible to have any kind of informed, intelligent, and nuanced discussion of Deng’s reforms are Hexbear and Lemmygrad, where they are frequently discussed and debated. I’ve posed questions about it to people on other servers, and the only responses I ever get are people attacking me as a tankie for even considering the question of whether China was better off before or after Deng’s reforms, or what should’ve been done differently, regardless of which position I take - assuming they don’t just ignore it or give a “tl;dr” for having the audacity to ask them a question that requires them to actually engage their brains instead of mindlessly reciting their preferred bumper sticker ideology.
