They've been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren't Reddit Approved.

Chinese workers clearly have greater control over the means of production than workers anywhere else in the world

What makes you think this? Is that why their benefits and conditions are worse than succdem Europe?
