Have you heard about the spate of thefts of chinese cultural artifacts years back? A whole bunch of musuems had sophisticated high end "thefts" where the only objects taken were things that had been looted from china by imperial powers. The common assumption was that the chinese state decided to take their stuff back.

That's pretty fucking cool and the most antiimperialist communist thing they've done in my lifetime.

I genuinely don't believe the current government is that cool.
