If you stripped away the aesthetics of communism and replaced it with a generic political party instead, you'd realize China isn't a marxist country. The true power of the country is held by a small bureaucratic class, not the working class.
I'm still convinced tankies support Xi just because they like the aesthetics of communism, rather than actual power to the working class.

Communist Partys arent meant to represent the working class. Their meant to represent the most theoretically advanced part of the working class to advance the working classes interest
Given the wage rise in China and standard of living increase since 1980s sub suharan African conditions id say they do that quite well
The Communist Party has 90 million members with voting rights and as Chapos fave SuccDem, Varoufakis, has pointed out there is now a "thriving grassroots democracy taking place at the local level in China"
Good God im not even a dengist and I know that
The greatest poverty reduction in human history happened in China under the CPC

China uses almost no "aesthetics of communism" so it would be a pretty weird project for someone to like because of the aesthetics.

And how exactly would you organize society/government such that power is in fact held by the working class?
Some type of democracy? or what?
