Thought experiment: Substitute the US UK where you see China, substitute the ownership class for the CCP, and substitute liberal democracy where you see communism or socialism.

China is criticized for taking steps to isolate bourgeois liberalism and democracy controlled by ownership, just as the US and UK take similar steps to demonize communism, isolate socialism, and cement the bourgeois liberal order that gives the ownership class control in place.

It is natural for those that control a society to attempt to preserve and extend the system.

Interestingly author Steve Tsang's title is "Director of the SOAS China Institute at the University of London’s School of Oriental and African Studies," which is in effect non-Western studies and non-white studies. The white man's burden and all that.
