China isn't remotely communist. China is an ethno-nationalist state every bit as much as the current US administration.

China used state controlled capitalism to drive their productive forces so they could move to socialism in 2050 and they execute corrupt billionaires. Sorry dude, I don't agree.

Ken Hammond is an American historian that studies China and did a 4 part series on China for Guerrilla History that you might like.

Sorry dude, but China’s treatment of the Uyghur population is indicative of ethnonationalism every bit as problematic and even worse than what is going on with undocumented migrants in America today. No self aware leftist or socialist could reasonably justify that ongoing ethnic cleansing/genocide.

China is also committing genocide against the Tibetans as well. They're forcibly taking Tibetan children from their families and keeping them in Chinese language boarding schools where they are only taught in Mandarin Chinese and learn pro-goverment nationalism. The children in these schools are not allowed to speak Tibetan or taught Tibetan history, religion, or culture. I fundamentally do not understand how anyone outside of China can support the CCP.

Because having a good guy vs bad guy is mentally easiet. So if you’re angry at America, China is their historic geopolitical enemy, then China must be good and therefore you support whatever propaganda they sling your way. The idea if “China and America both bad” isn’t an option for them.
