  Communist Party of China - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some of the opponents of the Party within the Chinese democracy movement have tended not to argue that a strong Chinese state is inherently bad, but rather that the Communist leadership is corrupt.
They have also argued that while the Communist Party may be flawed, it is comparatively better, with respect to improving the general standard of living, than any other government that has governed China in the past century and can be put in more favorable light against most governments of the developing nations.
With titles such as "On the Tyranny of the Chinese Communist Party", "On How the Chinese Communist Party Destroyed Traditional Culture" and "On the Chinese Communist Party’s History of Killing", the series is said to be aimed at exposing the violence and inherent anti-people nature of the Communist Parties, in particular the Chinese Communist Party.

While the Chinese Communist movement shares the basic principles of a class-based social revolution with Marxist-Leninist thought, the Chinese Communist’s emphasis on Mao’s mass line movement was a new characteristic unique to the Chinese Communist movement.
In regards to the second stage of the Chinese Communist revolution, another split with the Marxist-Leninist ideology of the Soviet Union occurred over the involvement of the Chinese peasants, not the proletariat, as the main force of the revolution.
While the different practices of the Chinese Communist Party and the Soviet Communist Party were a source for future conflict on their own, the Chinese Communist Party’s explicit denouncement of Marxist-Leninist ideology as a universal doctrine directly challenged the Soviet Union’s role as the leaders of the worldwide proletarian revolution.

 Chinese philosophy : Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy Online
The widespread assumption that Marxism has effectively westernized Chinese philosophical culture is seriously challenged by Mao’s own claim, upon adopting Marxist ideology, that he was using a Western heresy to confront the West (see Marxism, Chinese).
Chinese ethnocentrism is, perhaps, more consistent than its Western counterpart since it is grounded in the self-conscious insistence upon the centrality of its peculiar ethos, defined by racial and linguistic identity.
Thus, the Chinese have no means of cultivating that ‘healthy suspicion’ of governmental power which we take for granted without undermining the community of affect that binds ruler and people.
