You were told that there are discussions on .ml and elsewhere about whether China is socialist. But you assume that the people saying it isn’t are the same people saying it is. The reality is that .ml and other leftist spaces don’t represent a monolith, we don’t have some official party line everyone has to accept. There are some users who argue that China is socialist and some who say it isn’t, there is no contradiction unless you assume those two groups are the same people, rather than just being on the same instance.
