        There’s really nothing to continue. Of course on your take we could consider that the mainland Chinese people are China and some day they’ll have a new revolution from the oligarchy. But I’m not holding my breath on that happening anywhere

          China does not have oligarch problems like USA/West or South Korea do. And they crackdown on their billionaires and hang the corrupt ones quite often. They have not even spared their own private tutor, real estate, video game and tech industries.

            I don’t know if oligarchy has different definitions somewhere. I meant this:

            oligarchy /ˈɒlɪɡɑːki/, noun

            a small group of people having control of a country or organization.

              CPC has about 90M members, and including their youth and worker wings, over 300M members. Not sure how 1/6th of a country “controlling” the country is a small group, but go on.

                    It’s not a rebuttal. You wanted more. It’s gold indeed. Enjoy!
