China is not Marxist-leninist lmao. They have a market economy.
State capitalism is not the same as Marxism.
Of course they are led by a marxist-leninist vanguard party. Just because they are leading a state owned market economy in order to build up their productive forces so they can counteract the power of US hegemony/imperialism, doesn't mean they aren't doing socialist state building.
No, they aren't Marxist-leninist.
There's no overthrowing of capitalism. China is capitalist as fuck.
Socialism is not "when the government does things".
Socialism is a transition period between capitalism (and other modes of production that came before it) towards communism. Socialism even by Lenin's and Marx's words is a period riddled with contradictions. The state's role is to work towards communism. China is applying marxism-leninism to its context and is doing amazing while at it. Strengthening the productive forces as to combat imperialism is the way to go and China knows it. China doesn't need western ultra-lefts living at the tit of the empire to tell it what it has to do to ensure the survival of its sovereign state for the betterment of the working class's material conditions.
