As to names .. the claim that you know what is communism and a government communist party does not is laughable

Can't people own property in China but not the actual land the buildings are built on and aren't there privately owned business in China listed on the stock exchange? Doesn't really sound like communism to me.

One of the central principles of communism is that there's no private ownership, which of course in China there is. Their system is just capitalism administered by an overreaching, authoritarian government.

Did you even read what you linked? That is exactly what I said.

But seriously. Who the fuck even cares. All these political ideologies are nothing but temporary human stupidity now on the precipice of dissolving into the acids of history.

Fucking hell it is not communism. So just stop already. Even though people don't own the land people do own the buildings. There are property developers in China who make a fortune renting/leasing to the Chinese people. This is not communism.
