@Miancheng I'll give you a free English lesson. The antonym of 'disappear' is 'reappear', suggesting that the condition may be reversible -- in China, after successful re-education, that is.

@thefourthrabbit9516 You don't need to put the adjective 'Western' in front of 'democracy' to make a distinction with 'Chinese democracy'. The latter is an oxymoron. Moreover, this is a matter of transparency, rule of law and human rights. All of which apply to China in a limited capacity -- or in a manner that suits the CCP best.

@thefourthrabbit9516 China's and North Korea's -- to name a few autocratic countries -- interpretations of democracy are just perversions of universally accepted democratic ideals. Besides, democracies in the Western world vary considerably in setup. Non-Western true democracies don't really deviate from the Western norm -- if indeed there is such a norm.
