I would slightly disagree on the first part, I would say that the vast majority of Chinese people are more strongly devoted to their government/economic model than an average person or the average country, but I agree in that most people of China aren’t hardcore communist fanatics like neoliberals sometimes portray them as. Sometimes I think there should be more general support for communism in China, but I also think it could be a blessing in disguise. “Apolitical” people can point out the flaws in all sides, and supporting the status quo in China is a great thing, and the people are very supportive and independent without being a “hive mind”. But that does lend credence to your argument, I suppose.

I also agree that we should save mocking neoliberal’s arguments for after they are thoroughly broken down and disproven.
