Over 90% of Chinese citizens support their government, less than half of USians do. The majority of Chinese citizens believe they have a democratic impact on government policy, the same cannot be said of the US. China is rapidly developing and directly combatting poverty, the US is not. China is focused on trade, and maintains minimal overseas millitary presence, the US has 800 millitary bases all over the globe.
China is not a perfect wonderland, but it's steadily improving, and more importantly the people support it. The same cannot be said of the US, and to equate them is a mistake.
