I mean it is the greatest humanitarian achievement in history but surely ending the Southern slave economy, even if for economic reasons as a conflict of ruling classes, was also right up there as being “progressive” as well.
The main difference between Americas 1900s progress and China’s modern progress however is that China’s aren’t concessions from a bourgeoisie ruling class and thus will not be taken away, but built upon further.
But Danny already knows that sort of stuff so I get where he’s coming from. But maybe the wordage is not quite right.

Oh absolutely, transitioning from a primitive slave economy to a modern system of slavery is a humanitarian achievement indeed.
