Hasn't The Communist Party of China been the sole party in power in China for about half a century? And isn't its ideology quite heavily influenced by communist ideas? Isn't it the party's goal to create a communist social system in China?

It may not be communism in a "pure" form or "real" communism, but to me it seems that China is a somewhat communist country.
