      Socialism with Chinese characteristics != Maoism

      (Although tbf Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, is a move back closer to MLM after dengism)

        Of course, the party has shifted in ideology somewhat, but it's still same party. It hasn't seen THAT radical of a shift in the last several decades

          I sort of disagree, Deng's market reforms where a major shift in not just policy but the ideology of the party leadership for a time, although I agree that the party as a whole has remained committed to socialism
