I don't think you understand my assessment of China at all.  With the CCP,
China is going fully capitalist without plunging into chaos; without the
CCP's repressive management, China will probably be "Russia."  Socialist
opponents of the CCP do exist in China, but as a social force they do not
appear significant (certainly not in a position to take power).  If you or
anyone disagrees with me, I'd like to see concrete evidence.
