Alright, now I get that your opinion is positive on average, but we gotta address the elephant in the room, which is that China is a market economy and that there's no soviets or direct ownership of the means of production (or at least not as far as I know). How is China socialist then? I have heard many Trotskyst define China as "state capitalist" more than socialist

EDIT: Thank you all for your detailed responses, I will make sure to do my homework and study well

This is frankly entirely wrong.

The commanding heights of the economy are overwhelmingly publicly owned and planned, and the CPC is overwhelminly proletarian, with capitalist membership blocked from the highest ranks. China is a socialist country.
