The concept of "Party" works in very different ways in China as it does in western world.

When people in western governments started to form conflicting opinions, they'd say, let's create different parties and compete with each other.

When people in Chinese government started to form conflicting opinions, they'd say, let's keep the conflicts internal and unite under the same party.

The inner disagreement in Communist party of China could be as big as whether to adopt democracy or more central control of power; whether to stick to communism or drop it. That hadn't break the party into multiple ones so far

That must be what happened in the Chinese civil war.

Or during the Tiananmen massacre.

In both cases, for reasons unknown, thousands or more (hundreds of thousands) got slaughtered. Most had nothing to do with it.
