    There’s four stages, they’ve been in the first for seventy-six years.

    Doing the math it seems they’ll need another two hundred and twenty-six years to reach the final stage if they got to the second stage tomorrow.

    I’m not sure if I have impossibly high standards or thinking it’s reasonable to wait another nearly quarter of a millennium might be incredibly low standards.

      Why on Earth would you imagine each stage lasts a specific number of years? Why on Earth do you think thr timer should only start at the founding of the PRC? Why on Earth are you framing it as every stage up until communism is a sacrifice as compared to capitalism, and not as a system gradually and rapidly improving further and further?

      This is incredibly incoherent on your part, and thoroughly liberal.

        Should I base it on the founding of the CCP in 1921 instead?

        That’s a hundred and four years ago so the math would be closer to three hundred and twelve for the final stage.

          Why not thousands of years ago, when China was first rising? Why not 5 minutes ago? All of it is arbitrary and vibes-based for you, again, there’s no reason all stages take the same time, or why you’re framing it as many years of sacrifice to finally become a “good society” in several hundred years. It’s ridiculous.
