Back to the OP, while I am somewhat, that is to say relatively socialist by nature, I recognize that some governments use socialism—in China's case, Communism—to behave as an oligarchy. It's unfortunate, of course, but the reality in being a modern oligarchy is that corporatism is a necessity. Unfortunately, people like Marx and Shaw are ignored or used as tools to accumulate wealth, a bastardization of their philosophies.
If you, in China, are heading for a repeat of the Bolshevik Revolution (from the 1900s, not 1900s), I sincerly hope you're not headed for civil war. As much as I don't approve of the actions of the Chinese government, they are the enemy necessary to keep the idiots in charge of my country in check until a Democrat will take office, leaving alone the fact that a Chinese civil war would not be bloodless.
If you are so inclined, I suggest peaceful and well televised civil disobedience. Take advantage of live TV whenever possible (something no longer available in Russia, not sure about China). Just as I as an American am responsible for my government, you as a Chinese citizen are responsible for yours. It's going to be a difficult journey, but if there's even a chance of success, I suspect it's worth your efforts.
