+1 China cast off its communist practices years ago. What remains is authoritarianism.
Perhaps you aren’t away of the new complaints of middle class Chinese parents that lessons on the communist party are taking away from STEM subjects. I read about this new phenomenom in coverage of the recent quinquennial party convention.

It doesn't help that populist sentiment is spreading or that anti-intellectualism is de tiger.
Don't like Comcast? Stop watching NBC, MSNBC, and Telemundo.

No. Communism was discredited in Europe and will lessen its influence in China as the country becomes wealthier.
We are becoming populist along with most of the countries in Europe.
