China campits exist. There are fantastic sources of information about China who are not even remotely Marxist and just support China for whatever reason. I am wondering what percentage of China supporters do you think that applies to?

    This, 100%. Hell, I don’t care if someone gets some of the facts wrong about China (though I’d try to correct them) if they can get the simple understanding- that China is presenting a better system, that China and BRICS is presenting a viable peace and prosperity for the world, that it genuinely is “the west” (the deranged, corrupt, and warmongering hegemonic regimes of the west) vs. “the rest” (of humanity, of all those with even the slightest speck of decency in them).

    People don’t need to be a Marxist-Leninist to understand this. Just like people don’t need to be a Marxist-Leninist to realize that genocide is an unacceptable evil (or to understand after looking at the facts just how ridiculous and hypocritical the west’s slander against China is in this regard), that the present world system is incredibly unequal and corrupt, that people have their basic material needs (and China is meeting those needs to such an extent that it should serve as a lesson to anyone with basic sense), and that the western elites’ march towards WW3 trying to maintain world hegemony is a terrible (and utterly inhumane) idea.
