Those state are run by their ruling class (obviously), so their definitely are our ennemies. As well as every other states, specially imperialist one
To be clear, the ruling class in the PRC is the proletariat, it's a Socialist country. Further, Russia and Iran's ruling classes don't have the same Imperialist foothold holding the entire Global South down that Western Countries do. They will need Socialist revolutions, but as Imperialism is the world's greatest contradictions, it's more important to thwart US and Western European hegemony than it is to side with the Empire against bourgeois states that are nationalist in character.
The PRC is proletariat just as western country are democratic. Yep we should fight the imperialism of our own country first; but we shall not ignore what is oppressing our comrades elsewhere. Workers struggle are bloody crushed by hose states. Pretending elsewhere would not help to build social revolution anywhere
It's easy to claim something, but another thing entirely to prove it. The fact of the matter is that the PRC successfully had a Socialist revolution and has been as such since 1949, hence why the overwhelming majority of Marxist organizations recognize them as Socialist. The overwhelming majority of the large firms and key industries are publicly owned and planned, and the overwhelming majority of people support their system and believe it is headed in the right direction.
What would be a major setback is revolution in China. Such a color revolution would result in devastation, a crumbling of Socialism, and new lands to plunder for the US Empire. I suggest you familiarize yourself with Marxism and Marxist orgs before making such a claim. If you are familiar, then please offer something beyond a simple claim, so we can have a meaningful discussion.
