China is ruled by the Communist Party. It does not seem unreasonable to call them a communist country.

Yes, I know, they have moved away from historical communism, and it's more of a "brand name" than an ideological description. Still, it is their chosen name for what they're doing.

Sure but this is like calling North Korea a democracy because the official name of the country is the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea"
