not enforcing a law but just warning them hey you're being naughty is a W?

[–] ComradeChairmanKGB@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 8 months ago

Presumably having the courts declare it illegal would be the prelude to enforcing its illegality. If they just sit there and let it continue though that would suck. I'm still considering it a W compared to other countries that wouldn't dare speaking against corporations.

I don't fully understand why China doesn't take a harder stance against worker exploitation.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 30 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Im not the most well versed but i always assumed it was an attempt to rapidly industrialize and expand past the point of vulnerability from other nations. Its shitty but china is still around and the USSR isn't. Things should get better for China's proletariat from here

concessions to capital were severe, china has begun to take serious measures to reign it in since Xi

Might wanna ask qwename @qwename@lemmygrad.ml

I think he said something about oversupply of workers compared to job positions, could be misremembering though.

they gotta develop the Productive forces or whatever

[–] davel@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 8 months ago (1 children)

This article is from 2021, and is about the Court’s “most detailed warning yet,” which seems to imply that 996 was already declared illegal some time before then.

i was going to say this feels like deja vu.. could've sworn i heard this at least a year ago

[–] Shrike502@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's great. Now let's see how those millionaires react. I've been told here on the grad that capitalists don't hold power in PRC. So let's keep an eye out on the development

[–] Pili@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 8 months ago

They destroyed the private tutoring industry before, which certainly had a bunch of millionaires/billionaires at the top. So I'm not too worried about this one.

But yes you're right that we should keep an eye on it, we never know what could happen.

[–] GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 8 months ago (1 children)

you should probably mention in the title that this is from 2021

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 7 points 8 months ago

Oh I missed that part myself.

[–] JoeDaRedTrooperYT@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 8 months ago

FInally! FUCKING FINALLY!

[–] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 16 points 8 months ago (1 children)

China has issued its most detailed warning yet

what the fuck is this

[–] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 8 months ago

The more detail in the ruling, the harder it will be to worm out of. Clearly whatever it's done previously hasn't worked too well.

[–] RedClouds@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 8 months ago

That makes me so happy. Exciting times are ahead!
