Democratic vice presidential candidate and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz reportedly spoke favorably about China’s communist system when he was teaching high school students in the 1990s.

Citing a 1991 article in Nebraska’s Alliance Times-Herald about Walz’s work on student-exchange programs, he sai in his social studies class, “everyone is the same and everyone shares” in China, the according to The Washington Free Beacon.

Doctors and construction workers, the future Minnesota governor told the students, make the same amount of money, and the Chinese government and employers provide housing and food.

A 1994 profile about Walz in Nebraska’s Star-Herald, according to the Beacon, quoted the candidate as having always been “fascinated by Communist China.”

The glowing description of life in China, which didn’t include any mention of the Chinese government’s documented disregard for human rights, parallels favorable remarks about socialism that Walz made recently in which advised voters not to shy away from their progressive values. 

“One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness,” Walz said.
