When will Chinese people start receiving shares from their employers then? Oh that's right, never, because the tankie Dengists are a bunch of lying capitalist authoritarians.
Dengism isn't real.
This is petty bourgeois fantasy.
You are an idiot.
Lol, we basically said the same thing but you did so far more succinctly.
Since when was socialism "receiving shares from employers?" Socialism is a mode of production and distribution centering public ownership of the means of production, the dominant aspect of China's economy is the public sector with a working class state. This is socialism.
As for your word salad, tankie is just a pejorative for socialists that support existing socialist states, "Dengism" isn't a thing, and all states are "authoritarian," so the important aspect is which class controls the state, not if the state exists or not.
"True socialism" isn't a thing, socialism is not a religious vow. It's a material system where public ownership is the principal aspect and the working classes control the state. Receiving shares from employers is a weird, petty bourgeois notion of socialism utterly disconnected from the scientific socialism of Marx and Engels. Rather than making everyone a worker-owner of the individual firm they work at, socialism leads towards everyone owning all of production and distribution.
