No, i don't consider it succeeding if there's a dictator in power. Is that a hot take? Again, I'm fairly anti-capitalist too. I am also anti-authoritarian, and thus also against dictators. Hence i do not consider Xi's CCP
Successful.

Edit: what barsoap said is also true. China utilizes a capitalist system as economy. Do you really think those factory workers own their factory themselves? If so, how are there so many Chinese billionaires? Billionaires shouldn't exist in a communist society.

    Thinking communism is a good system and sucking of dictators is a bit of a difference isn't it lol.

    I literally today saw a post celebrating and congratulating Xi for being a leader for so long, you know, while forcing that no one else could take power.

    Also associating communism with authoritarianism is very saying.
