The quotation I gave you was, first of all, not one of the numbered demands like a graduated income tax schedule but in fact one of the "general principles" which are "as correct today as ever", and the Communist Party of China seems to be well aware of the fact that the practical application in China depends on the historical conditions existing in China, they've formulated their entire approach to implementing socialism on that very idea. That's why they call their economic system Socialism with Chinese Characteristics. Calling their system just "capitalist" kind of ignores some fundamental questions about how an economy operates. Who is making the decisions in the economy, for the benefit of whom and at the expense of whom?
Is the Norwegian state a tool of the Norwegian proletariat or of the bourgeoisie? Your problem is you're trying to remove class from the analysis of how the state functions. That's especially apparent with the dim-witted comparison to Nazism which operated the economy in favor of the bourgeoisie at the expense of the working class, it's literally the opposite thing. but when you have no class analysis all you see is "authoritarianism, theyre literally the same as Nazis".
Funny how you literally quote Marx saying that the implementation of socialism will depend on the historical conditions of the country, then in the very next comment hand wave away "talk of material conditions" as if it doesn't matter, as if the material conditions of the working class haven't improved at a nearly miraculous pace in China, in stark contrast of the conditions in capitalist countries over the same time. Like sorry Xi, it doesnt matter that you're eliminating poverty, you haven't dissolved the state after abolishing the commodity form, therefore you're a dirty capitalist.
The good thing is that it doesn't really matter how many western leftists keep spouting this nonsense, the tens of millions of Chinese communists will continue building socialism without even knowing or caring about these internet leftists seething about it.
