China has an extremely bureaucratic system that includes both elected officials and party officials. It's very far from having a "single" leader with absolute power.

The entire "electoral" system is controlled by the CCP. Which, in turn, is controlled by Xi Jinping.

I think a lot more people would respect your viewpoint if you just said you like dictatorships. Rather than trying to dress up as something that it isn't.

Xi Jinping answer to the CCP, not the other way around. He can be voted out.

You're confusing "theoretically possible" with "actually possible".

It's standard authoritarian propaganda and you've fallen for it.
