The Vietnam of today is still communist, period. The mainland Chinese government of today is still communist, period. The differences is they both realized the communist method of running an economy simply did not work. They are now both a blend of communism, with it’s firm control over the people, and a capitalist economy. With this the peoples of both are generally happier than they were under communist totalitarian regimes such as the USSR and Mao’s China.
China’s goal is to take over our country, that has never changed. Vietnam IMO is much softer and see’s China as an enemy more so than the US. In a coming pacific war, I see the possibility of Vietnam actually being an ally of ours in a Chinese war.
yes it is fascism
just like china

They are fascist, by definition.
Vietnam is authoritarian, like Singapore.
Will it be possible for private property to be abolished at one stroke?The communists in Red China and Red Vietnam have not deviated from their goals one iota. Their current economic tactics are very much in line with their goals, whether it be the present situation or going back to Lenin and his New Economic Policy.
No, no more than existing forces of production can at one stroke be multiplied to the extent necessary for the creation of a communal society.
In all probability, the proletarian revolution will transform existing society gradually and will be able to abolish private property only when the means of production are available in sufficient quantity.
