@vitaliibraslavets About Communism vs Capitalism, it's no secret today that capitalism is killing the planet. Capitalism is the overproduction of goods for the sake of profits, unnecessarily polluting the Earth in the process, with the eventual goal being the complete depletion of the Earth's resources. Because our modern industries are just too efficient, we can literally produce enough food, goods, houses, schools, hospitals, etc for everyone on the Earth. Yet despite this, we still have starving people in the world, homeless people, illiteracy, people lacking access to healthcare, etc. Because under the capitalist system, the goods go to those who can afford it.
Communism is the belief that every resource should be allocated to the people according to needs. As the Marxist saying goes: "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." The Earth's resources are finite, and capitalism only seeks to exhaust the Earth's resources in pursuit of profit, whereas communism is committed to the idea of distributing resources according to needs. Sure, it's not a perfect system but it seems preferable to capitalism, which is overproduction for the sake of profits. What's the point of hoarding profit? When we all eventually die, can capitalists take their profits into the afterlife? No.

@gulamog5041 If you go and read Taiwan's own constitution, it says that Taiwan is part of China. Under their constitution, Taiwan claims all of mainland China (including Xinjiang, Tibet, Inner Mongolia, Manchuria, etc) as their territory, including territory currently under the control of Mongolia, Burma (Myanmar), Bhutan, India, Japan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia and Tajikistan. Here's a map of all the territory Taiwan claims:(source:wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ROC_Administrative_and_Claims.svg )
Since there hasn't been any amendments to Taiwan's constitution, then by default, Taiwan is part of China under their own constitution.

@gulamog5041 Evil? China is currently at peace and not at war with any country, since our last major conflict in 1979. Instead of making war, China is building infrastructure like roads, railways, highways, bridges, tunnels, powerstations, dams, ports, airports, etc and investing in developing countries like Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and also African countries like Nigeria, Kenya, Chad, Sudan, Ghana, Mozambique, Tanzania, etc.
Whereas the United States is warmonger being involved in Gulf War, Iraq War, Afghan War, Libyan War, Syrian War, Yemen War, etc, even in the 21st century. USA is bombing in those Middle Eastern countries and enacting regime change by cutting off their "heads" (Saddam Hussein, Muammar Gaddafi, etc) and then installing their own US puppet governments in place.
If anything, it sounds like the United States is the real threat to global peace and stability here.
