So we need to start covert anti-corruption efforts n China, since China will win, we don't want a single party member destroying the world...I don't know what we can actually do, but it is crucial for the human race that China develops more benevolent values if at all possible.

    I don’t know what we can actually do

    Make it easier for Chinese Nationals to study abroad, educate them on the idea of government transparency, separation of powers, checks and balances, the idea that government legitimacy comes from the people, idea of social contract, etc.... Hope they bring back the knowledge to fix the country from within.

    (Btw, Overseas Chinese helped topple the Qing Regime and ended monarchism.)

    I get a sense that in the CCP, you wouldn't get into any position with actual influence unless your peers and superiors have some leverage on you (they know you've done done shady shit which they can expose if you become a nuisance).

    So in that way, actually interparty radicalism is curtailed.
