China is fasbol gang.

No, it is not "red fash".
No, this post isn't claiming it is anti-communist.
No, this thread is not a thorough academic analysis. It is a post to be thought about, not believed.

The Leninist strategy involves using and controlling the existing private economy in a proletariat-controlled transitional state as a means of social and economic reform, creating the conditions needed for a socialist state and hopefully then a communist society.

Whether China's existing economy is "capitalist" or "socialist" or some form of hybrid is a debated topic. It has historically had strong elements of a private economy, with state control of companies growing and now dominant. Many claim that the state is controlled by the proletariat and therefore the state property is public property, thereby making it a partly-socialist economy, or at the very least, departed from a primarily capitalist economy. But however you stand on this discussion, the point is that a capitalist economy has been subsumed by state control into something distinct, socialist or not.

This post asserts that this is not merely "modified capitalism as a pathway to communism", but more specifically "modified fascism as a pathway to communism". And it appears to be viable.

This post is specifically talking about classical Fascism in its original formation, prior to pressure from the squadrismo in 1921, and far prior to pressure from Nazi allies. If you don't understand how the petite-bourgeois militias influenced fascism, or think Nazism is fascist, or think that ᴉuᴉlossnW had any respect for Nazism whatsoever, then you don't have the necessary foundational knowledge to understand this post yet, come back to it after reading a Wikipedia page, at least.

This thesis relies on these core facts:
>the PRC, by its government's own admission, has always been class collaborationist
>the PRC is corporatist
>the PRC has a variety of other fascist tendencies

The PRC is class collaborationist
>Who are the people? At the present stage in China, they are the working class, the peasantry, the urban petite bourgeoisie and the national bourgeoisie. These classes, led by the working class and the Communist Party, unite to form their own state and elect their own government; they enforce their dictatorship over the running dogs of imperialism – the landlord class and bureaucrat-bourgeoisie, as well as the representatives of those classes, the Kuomintang reactionaries and their accomplices – suppress them, allow them only to behave themselves and not to be unruly in word or deed.

The PRC flag has one large start surrounded by four more stars. The CPC official government interpretation of the flag is that the large star represents the CPC and the four smaller stars symbolizing the working class, the peasantry, the urban petite bourgeoisie, and the national bourgeoisie united around them. These four classes, the bourgeoisie being two of them, in collaboration with the proletariat.
I really don't think this point needs any more evidence, the rest is evident. The bourgeoisie are generally subservient to the state, with even the most powerful facing execution and other suppression. The workers are generally subservient to the state, with Maoists and other extreme anticapitalists being imprisoned for meeting or sharing propaganda. The state, more and more, acts as a mediator between the inherent class conflict between these classes, resulting in a relatively stable, progressive and successful market economy, much unlike the bourgeois-dominated failure of Fascist Italy's class struggle suppression, under the false guise of 'collaboration'.

The PRC is corporatist
Surely you already know about trade union suppression (the ACFTU is the country's sole legally mandated trade union) and overwhelming CPC dominance in the National People's Congress (which even has it's own huge military delegation!), but do you know about the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference? This is effectively how the NPC is advised by industrial representatives divided by corporate groups (not corporations!), who collectively form an overwhelming majority. Ultimately the NPC (and therefore CPC) supervise, direct and determine whether these policies become legislation, this functions as a corporatist subversion of syndicalism.

The PRC has a variety of other fascist tendencies
This is self-evident so they can be listed:
- Antiliberalism
- Nationalism
- Ultranationalism
- Irredentismo
- Centralized autocracy
- Forcible suppression of internal opposition, including communists
While fascism is not a checklist, these are nevertheless relevant. Some tendencies common to historical fascist movements, like militaristic imperialism, strong reactionary social values and anticommunism, are not evident in the PRC; consider it fascism with Chinese characteristics.

What does this mean?
I am not using fascism here with positive or negative implications, simply outlining that its synthesis with the M-L transitional state appears to be an effective method for China to create a stable world power and resist the US. And, through its autocratic structure along with wise choices within the party, appears to have preserved the ideological communist and Marxist core of the party leadership. Powerful bourgeois elements have not been able to dominate the state, especially since the anti-corruption purges (which devastated the CIA's pay-to-win asset promotion technique). Inexperienced and narrow-focused workers have not been able to destabilize the state. President Xi appears to be sincerely communist, in the full lofty "stateless classless society" meaning of that term. And if the PRC's tactic of a fascist transitional state on the path to socialism continues to show itself to be successful at retaining and promoting world communism, I wonder what implications this will have, theoretical and practical, on communist movements worldwide.

Your next line is to make an offended one sentence dogmapost because you took this too literally!
