Given that the largest imperial power on Earth has spent decades encircling China, I don’t blame them for wanting to reduce antagonism with the nuclear-armed state directly south of them that holds a fifth of the world’s population.
I certainly don’t blame them for that either, and I was perhaps too harsh in my first comment. I just get annoyed by the number of communists I see who heap praise upon a society whose own government admits is capitalist.
The government understands how to separate political power from economic management, and admits to having an economy currently managed by a capitalist class using capitalist relations between workers and capital, but that under a government direction oriented towards the long term goals of the proletarian class. Understanding the relation between these two distinct forms of “being” as a state is necessary

Are you saying the CPC thinks its capitalist?
