Sure, in a one-party system like China, the one ruling party is always responsible for everything that happens. The fatal flaw in the system though is - how do you actually hold that one party accountable? If the Chinese Communist Party fails, the only way to actually hold them accountable is to start building bombs and killing people. There's no way to vote them out of office. The only way to hold them accountable is a total revolution.
There is no fatal flaw in the system, and I don't why you assume it's harder to hold a single party accountable than multiple parties. Furthermore, the Communist Party of China is structured fundamentally different from western parties that are completely insulated from the public. The party in China is a grassroots party https://news.cgtn.com/event/2021/who-runs-the-cpc/index.html
The fact that people in the west have been brainwashed into thinking that voting is the only viable political action is absolutely surreal.
Came to ask for this, thank you!
