Positive. Despite facing difficult problems for it's entire existence the CPC have again and again handled the situation. The result is that China is the industrial and soon technological powerhouse of the world, with a continually increasing standard of living. Additionally they have a positive impact on the rest of the world with their trade and diplomatic relations, New Energy Vehicles and solar panels being one example. I think the CPC have a very good chance to continue leading China in a positive trajectory.

One of the most successful socialist countries in history thus far.

Its very existence is tearing apart the Western economies by making them obsolete. I think its impressive by virtue of being the first socialist state the US just stands no chance against. Any future communist states will only be possible because of China. And yes, they're not perfect. But we should take into account trajectory. They're getting much better very quickly while most everyone else is on the decline.

China is a beacon of light for most of the world, a story of success by their own merit. Regardless of your political tendencies, one cannot simply not acknowledge the tremendous development they have achieved in such a massive country in such short time.

I think it's a great country with a fascinating history, excellent modern infrastructure, delicious food, breathtaking natural landscapes and very nice people, although their language is somewhat difficult to learn.

Cautiously optimistic about the Chinese socialist project.

Only time will tell where it ultimately leads, but right now it's looking progressive.

The western empire makes them look like angels on earth by comparison. But they are more complicated than that, struggling through the implementation of theory and learning from practice, as one should expect from a transition-based communist vanguard state project. They share a position of deserved praise for their accomplishments along with other AES projects, along with deserving fair assessment from good faith comrades looking to ensure mistakes are caught and corrected along the way. They are on the path to play a very defining historical role for decades to come, which is a lot of responsibility, and it is on international comrades as a shared responsibility to ensure they have support in the struggle for liberation and are not being expected to carry the weight of the world on their shoulders.

It's very important that they not end up in a position of overextending beyond what they can manage on their own and I think being careful of that is a lesson they consciously learned from the USSR's failures. One of their aims seems to be to nurture an international world of sovereign countries who have win-win connections with themself (China) and with others. This helps materially weaker countries shake off the yoke of imperialism and become capable in their own right, which furthers the goal of liberation, while avoiding the problem of dependency on China as a burden that it can't carry.

For me, it's hard not to put them on a pedestal, considering how well they do compared to the west and its barbarism. But they are still human and it is important to remember that, so that we understand we can do like them in other countries; that it's not out of reach, but it is a protracted, organized struggle and one they have had to go through themselves in order to reach the relative prosperity they have achieved. A struggle that continues for them now and which is perhaps reaching one of its most important points in history, considering the disproportionately influential role they can play in what shapes the international landscape going forward.

It's not perfect but objectively better than the Imperial Core and most of the Imperial Periphery. They're also an example of a healthy relationship with technology that enables embracing it and not going into reactionary neoluddism, especially re: AI

China went from feudalism to socialism. They have capitalist characteristics under a socialist system in order to go from the Marxist idea of going from feudalism to capitalism to socialism. They are becoming more socialist since Deng Xiaoping who started liberalizing the economy. This has been seen as billionaires are decreasing in China and more power is going towards the government.

I was wondering what modern day communists think about current China because I have heard many different and conflicting opinions by people who should theoretically be on the same side of the political spectrum.

I'm sorry if I'm not polite. If I may give you a suggestion, I think you'd better go into detail about what you mean by "many different and conflicting opinions" so you can get more satisfactory answers.
