Got recommended some of his videos, primarily the one where he reacts and responds to The Deprogram's episode on China.

He goes off saying that China isn't socialist, that there is no such thing as "socialism in transition" or "highest stage of socialism". I stopped watching about 20 mins in.

Not through active and scientific efforts of development for society. 😙 These libs (I just call them libs at this point, especially if they won't bother to learn Dialectical materialist foundations) are really so illiterate, uninformed about socialism/communism/Marxism and I'd wish they'd just keep their mouths shut if they aren't going to do any investigating. They end up spewing nonsense and derailing folks who are looking for true sources that gives them a better understanding of Marxism, revolution, and the dictatorship of the proletarian. I know, because I was constantly bombarded by ultras, Trotskyites, left communists and idealist anarchists. Best thing one can do is read and hear it straight from the mouths of actual, historic revolutionaries and theorists.
