Zizek never tried to understand asian leftism because it is not ''real socialism'', he wrote the foreword for an edition of Mao's on practice and on contradiction which he argues that there is no real Maoists in the world except Alain Badiou (which is hilarious because Wanghui, Mobo Gao and some other people in the New left have similar views in regards to some good thing happening with the cultural revolution). He also describes modern day china as Confucianism which is also pretty funny because the early Chinese communists did try to sinofy Marxism-Leninism so this is not really that new of a concept. Zizek's appeal to eurocommies is just that his audience is as uninform as himself, so he sounds smart when he says something ''new''.

He was always a socdem, there is a interview of him saying that climate change can only be solve with his ''communism'' which he never defined it clearly except saying that there needs to be bare minimum welfare for citizen survival with a degree of authoritarianism. I don't see how this is new, he just described every right wing european political parties that throws a bone to their countries' pensioners

Another pan-Asian leftist argument is that in Europe and the US, capital reigns directly, with the state apparatus mostly just serving it, while in China the movement of capital is subordinated to state control and regulation. But with regard to socio-economic rights, Europe is still far more socially democratic than China.

His word, not mine

Zizek had written about Wanghui this year on how dangerous Wanghui's ideas are for the stability of the western democracies. As far as i know WangHui never responded

Dugin portrays himself and his "new" ideology (really just banal conservatism, there is nothing original about it) as the antithesis to western liberalism. But in fact he and the liberals are very much alike

This is what WangHui, Zizek's Archenemy, said about Dugin too
