Why would communist support capitalists like Putin and Xi-Jinping which aren't better than Liberal-capitalists ?

I am all in for stopping liberal capitalism, but I am more interested in implementing a happinex index like Buthan than living in oligarch-capitalist-regime like Russia/China

Comparing China to Russia is laughable. I know this doesn't answer your question but I always find interesting when certain people make this this type of comparison.

One has a competent government the other doesn't.

All the more perplexing that there’s Putin support.
