As much as I would like to see the CCP fall, they've proven they have staying power.
Of course, societies don't fall gradually. It may look like a manageable situation and then sudden collapse occurs, viz. Syria the last couple of weeks.

although the communist revolution in china started almost a hundred years ago, it wasn't until 1949 that they become a communist country. and there have been uprising ever since. the ccp has tried to adapt but that only settles down the people a little while.
i think they'll be like russia / ussr which didn't last a hundred years. before long they'll go democratic but it will be a false democracy led by corrupt leaders with delusions of grandeur.
sad but true.
