    The difference between Dengism and social democracy is that social democracy was only ever implemented in the context of imperialist nation, and that at least nominally it still strives for socialism and communism.

      Social Democracy just means capitalism with substantial state owned sector and a welfare state. Imperialism is not necessary for this. You are right about nominally, Dengism is capitalism with red paint. China is as socialist as Bernie Sanders.
