China campits exist. There are fantastic sources of information about China who are not even remotely Marxist and just support China for whatever reason. I am wondering what percentage of China supporters do you think that applies to?

    I don’t think slur is the appropriate word to use here.
    There are people who simply support China because it isn’t the US. For example, one of the best sources for economic news about China is Inside China Business. He lives in China and supports China but he literally thinks that the reason for China’s success is that God is rewarding them for being the largest Christian nation and punishing the US for abandoning the faith. I don’t know what other word to describe this guy and people like him as.

      The only time I see this term being used it when Trotskyists run out of road and have nothing else to say. Then they apply it incorrectly as a mindless slur. I don’t see it applying to the Inside China Business guy. I don’t know what you call him, a religious nut? A right winger?
