What does "Yes I am you are arguing that China is not?" mean?

[edit] - wait. I think I have this. You are asking if I think China is a failed state because it sort of practices communism and all communist states are, by definition, failed states.

They have the second biggest economy in the world, and are probably the second most influential "state" in the world. So, no.

      - So you think Trump saying “Leave Your Hong Kong Alone” would deescalate the Commies? [NT] - CC72 - 1:45pm 8/13/19
