Is communism Chinese culture? Or is it a political ideology imported from the West?

OK. Han Chinese have been ruled for thousands of years in an autocratic way. But so have others. And again that is not culture, is it?

The fact is that Communism is stifling culture because the flourishing of culture is based on creativity and intellectual freedom, and these are inherent threats to any autocratic rule.
