This is like really basic geopolitics my dude, China is a thoroughly capitalist economy by any definition that isn't being massaged specifically to exclude them.

Maybe do not try to use basic geopolitics to answer a question of political economy?

... is this supposed to be some sort of gotcha? Did I commit a whoopsie by using the term geopolitics to refer to how one of the top 3 global superpowers runs its markets?

It means you did not understand the question, and your answer proved me right. You are completely ignorant regarding communist theory.

Classic more leftist than thou bs. Is your goal to alienate everyone who doesn't already share your exact thoughts?

You did not " not share my exact thoughts", you did not even grasp the topic. In the former there is some overlap and some deviation. In the latter there is no overlap.

I like how pedantic you are about this but you literally can't even parse my simple English properly.
