China is very socialist with its billionaire rulers
I already explained that public ownership is the principle aspect of the economy and the working class is in charge of the state. China has billionaires because it's both wealthy and has capitalists, but these capitalists control the small and medium secondary industries and have no political power. The highest levels of the CPC have extremely few capitalists:
Meanwhile, capitalists are regularly executed or fleeced of all of their property if they oppose the socialist system.
If you have billionaires you are capitalist end of story. save the propaganda for your comrades and go fertilize Ukraine
Your point is that there's no transition between capitalism and communism, but instead an immediate destruction of all class all at once, overnight? Or is it that a society run by the working classes and public ownership as principle is capitalist all the way until the very last capitalist is liquidated, at which point it's communist? Either way, your understanding of class struggle and modes of production is deeply confused and based on a type of "purity" in production and distribution that has never existed. A capitalist state isn't socialist just for having some degree of public property, so too is a socialist state not capitalist just for having some degree of private property.
Telling me to kill myself is also deeply unserious behavior. You have no evidence, no logic to back your claim, just a self-supported assertion and an insult.
Read a book
When billionaires in the US commit massive fraud they get bailed out, when they do it in China they're imprisoned or executed. Your analysis is extremely and very obviously wrong.
