If "on the planet" you mean primarily the U.S and secondarily the rest of the "west" while excluding the majority of humanity on the planet, then sure.
You're so brainwashed and conditioned into believing you have more in common with some ghoul billionaire that values your life insofar as much as they can extract wealth out of you than your own fellow worker.
I mean everywhere that isn't China or Russia or one of their satellites/annexes yeah.
Not sure where you got the billionaire thing, I've never defended them, in word or action. (Living in a capitalist country and needing a job for resources doesn't make me a billionaire apologist)
Liberalism and billionaire worship are not the same thing, same as communism and xi are not the same thing.
To be clear: just because xi figuratively leads a communist country doesn't mean this policy is perfectly communist.
Same thing goes for billionaires existing in a liberal society.
Lastly, the existence of either doesn't invalidate the tenets of either ideology
Xi is no different than any other billionaire shit head most of the communist party top leaders use there position to gain control over the state controlled businesses
Xi first started geting so much hate from the west because he actually started purging communist party members for being too involved in the private sector. If he was encouraging the bourgeoisification of the CPC he would be hailed by the west.
