A whole three full generations for an entire social logic to work itself out! You've really got me there.

I wouldn't give up yet.  If the Chinese Communist Party insists on not listening to the people, something like a proletarian revolution could yet occur.  Expecting the result to mesh with the Marxist ideal?  Well, maybe you should give up.

Worth remembering: the Commies' predecessor, the Kuomintang, began as a left-wing Party and went to the Right, too

This may be the right time to mention our WEIRD-ness, and how different and rigid the Chinese model is and has been for centuries.  I doubt we will be subsumed by the East, nor will we crush them. The US-Soviet duopoly was much less logical than the emerging one, but a manifest China isn't going to happen either.
