Sorry but the world wide concensus is that China is a communist country.
When based on ignorance and propaganda, no consensus can be trusted.

They cant. China is a hypercapitalist dictatorship, the opposite of communism.It must be the results of a vast right wing conspiracy. Its not like any reasonable person could actually think China is communist (sarcasm).

Interesting.
You must have spent some time in China.
How long did you spend there ?
Just as a matter of interest, as a child I learnt about China from my relatives, one of whom fought for the Chinese Revolution and another who fought in both the Russian and Chinese Revolutions.

China is a communist country, that has adopted Capitalist economic principals. They still ruthlessly control the population enforcing religious suppression, and other social controls. However, they have almost completely liberated the economy from central government control.
The former communes that kept the population in perpetual poverty, have all but largely disappeared, replaced by free-market capitalist businesses.
China is a perfect example of modern economics in action. Government control resulted in poverty, while laissez faire economics led to wealth. It's not surprising that socialist attempt to claim that the wealth of free-market economics, is somehow a win for socialism. A contradiction at it's best.
