The fact that I disagree with you doesn't mean I'm preventing you from speaking. I just disagree with you, plain and simple. Critique isn't valuable because it's different, but because it adds depth to understanding or corrects issues, neither of which I see really being done by your claims here.
The plain and simple fact is that China is steadily progressing as a socialist country, gradually focusing on building up the productive forces while maintaining socialism as the mode of production. As time goes on, maintaining socialism means the economic characteristics of market forces will continue to force the socialization of production.
The party itself is overwhelmingly proletarian:
Further, the political views suppressed are fascist and counter-revolutionary views. The fact that private capital exists does not mean the party is "nurturing capitalist relations." China has contradictions, indeed, but the party itself is not bourgeois, and this certainly isn't because they have a political party and state administration.
I do, just because I'm not convinced by what you have to say doesn't mean I'm talking past you. What you bring up often is either not true or is based on, say, Bordigist left-deviationist critique which is a whole other can of worms to get into. I do organize in real life, and that does keep me grounded as well, hopefully we can both continue our journeys to learn more and unite theory with practice.
