Something too childish about completely tearing down capitalism and replacing it with an entirely new mode of production, despite my agreement with the Marxian view of history. Marxism seemed to me to be more about destroying the old than building the new. Through Socialism with Chinese characteristics, China has eradicated poverty, homelessness and illiteracy.
The capitalists are represented through the party to keep them from being compradors, and are kept in line, with Xi Jinping thought now nationalizing and controlling the private rapidly. The genius of Deng's theory is keeping the dictatorship of the workers while also using the benefits of global capitalism to build the revolution. America's fate was sealed when Deng inherited a broken China and built it into a superpower.
