Young people in China are becoming more rebellious, questioning their nation’s traditional expectations of career and family

A “tankie” isn’t a communist anymore than an American Republican wants individual freedom.
Anyone that supports China is going to say it’s communist, and anyone from the right shitting on China is going to say they’re communist.
But both groups are pretty much the same and no one should listen to either
My pet conspiracy theory is that a bunch of tankies are actually CIA trolls, in an effort to tie criticism of the US together with completely bonkers causes. The end goal being that if you think the US is not the best thing ever, you must be a tankie, and you support authoritarian regimes like Iran and China.
Some of the tankie(bots) I have argued with on here are so contrarian that it seems that way to me, as well. They don’t try to argue in good faith, and they never concede no matter how much they are proven wrong. I wouldn’t be surprised if at least some of them are bots or bad actors either from the CIA, China, or Russia.
The CCP doesn’t even claim that China is communist though. Idk where you’re getting that from.
Can I get a source for the communist party of China saying they’re not communists?
The CCP are communists though. There is no denying that. That doesn’t mean they think China is a communist country. Communism to them doesn’t just mean the communists are in power. Communism to them is more of an ideal they aim to work towards.
That’s not a source…
And it’s like saying American Republican voters want personal freedom.
It doesn’t matter what someone says if their actions are the opposite
A source for what? You asked the question,
I’m trying to clarify what I said because it sounds like you misinterpreted me. If you want a source of the CCP saying that they think China is not yet communist that’s an entirely different question altogether.
