Deng Xiaoping[a][b] (22 August 1904 – 19 February 1997) was a revisionist Chinese politician and theorist who served as the dictator of the People's Republic of China from 1978 to 1989 following his rise to power after a military putsch which overthrew the revolutionary Gang of Four and ended the Chinese Revolution. He, along with other capitalist-roaders, dismantled socialism in China in favor of capitalism through initiatives such as the reform and opening-up, he also showed sympathies for fellow revisionist Josip Broz Tito.[1]
Deng Xiaoping sought to undermine class struggle in China in favor of class collaboration in addition to upholding the erroneous theory of the productive forces. Deng lacked even a fundamental understanding of Marxist principles, instead formulating a right-opportunist deviation known as "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics."
“This person does not grasp class struggle; he has never referred to this key link. Still his theme of ‘white cat, black cat,’ making no distinction between imperialism and Marxism.” —Mao Zedong[2]
In addition to this, Deng Xiaoping was influenced by fellow revisionist Nikolai Bukharin, during Deng's time in Moscow he had read Bukharin's work "ABC of Communism" and later said in 1992:
“The Communist Manifesto and the ABC of Communism are my guides.”[3]
