Can we just call it what it is?

Fascism (in the Mussolini model) in everything but name.

- Hyper-Nationalism & Rejuvenation - State-Controlled Capitalism (Corporatism) - Authoritarian & Cult of Personality - Militarism & Irredentism

And they have technology to maintain control rather than needing the Black-shirts.

There are differences obviously to fit Chinese culture, but there are many parallels.
