The Chinese leadership is clearly determined to keep dangerous western ideas such as universal human rights under strict control. The problem, of course, is that Marxism-Leninism, the ostensible ideological basis for the regime, is itself a western idea.
How can this contradiction be resolved? Perhaps the Chinese can discover that Marx and Lenin had Chinese ancestors. Why not? They claim golf was invented in China, too.
Maybe Marx and Lenin were Chinese in a previous life. That would count.
