Dengism
Dengism is a political tedency which expresses critical or uncritical support for the People's Republic of China, as well as a label for the ideological strain which supports this position. Dengism is named for Deng Xiaoping and derives some of its ideological positions from his writings. Use of the term from either supporters or critics is not common outside of internet spaces, and the concept may have originated on the internet [citation needed]. Dengism is controversial due to its direct connection to the heated debate over China. Dengism bears relation to Deng Xiaoping Theory and Xi Jinping Thought [citation needed] but may be considered distinct.
Critics accuse Dengists of supporting social-imperialism, class collaborationism, or even corporatism.
