Really cool to imagine neoliberalism is a warlock brew or some shit dude. China's had to engage with markets because they NEED CAPITAL. That's not some selfish desire, those are the conditions.
You gotta admit though, China becoming the neoliberal hedgemon would be incredibly funny in a dark kind of way, even if it more or less condems the entire planet to destruction.
But those conditions have led to the rise of a massive Chinese bourgeois class which very well may seize power from Xi in the next decade. He's not getting any younger.
I'm assuming they're partly to blame for the lockdown protests, and we can be fairly confident the CIA is attempting to fund troublemakers. But yes, this is just idle speculation based on the general nature of bourgeois classes rather than the actual actions of the Chinese bourgeois.

Yeah I am aware this is where you're all getting this idea. Not Marxism, it's pessimism. Fuck you.
Stalin: Socialism in one country.
Xi: Socialism with it's boot on the neck of all crackkka countries.

This is just idle speculation, you don't actually have anything up the latter assumption lmao
What have the bourgeois class recently done to thumb their nose at the communist party successfully? Name something, don't blow air at me!
