    the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

        The government represents the people of China, and land is owned collectively. That’s what communism is, collective ownership.

            In practical terms, they own it in exact the same way a person owns a home in any western country.

                Then you don’t own it in a western country either because as soon as you stop paying your property tax then you lose your home. You’re just regurgitating nonsense without actually thinking about it.

                You only “own” a house as long as you can rely on the police to enforce your claim. The concept is the same. It’s just in China they made a policy decision not to enforce landlords’ claims in order to reduce inequality.
