Why would communist support capitalists like Putin and Xi-Jinping which aren't better than Liberal-capitalists ?

I am all in for stopping liberal capitalism, but I am more interested in implementing a happinex index like Buthan than living in oligarch-capitalist-regime like Russia/China

I'm quite prepared to believe the US is involved here. There are lots of weapon sales and talk of investing in the rebuild.
