Looking at how capitalists are treated in China is a very good indication of what class holds power in society. This is another point a lot of people don't seem to understand about ML theory, the key goal is to ensure that working class holds power and forms the government that represents the interests of the working majority. We recognize that there will necessarily be a transition period where capitalist relations persist. Thinking otherwise is naive and leads to impractical idealism.
