    In what way is China fascist? It’s a socialist country, public ownership is the principle aspect of the economy and the working classes control the state.

      Authoritarianism, violent oppression of minorites and dissenting movements, deeply ingrained surveillance state with state censorship.

        China does not violently oppress minorities, and wielding state authority, censorship, and surveilance against capitalists and fascists is necessary for a socialist state, and doesn’t make it fascist. Fascism is capitalism violently defending itself from decay and solidifying bourgeois control, not proletarian.
