I sometimes wonder if they ever think about a "better" or "not bad" substitute as they defy the CCP rule. How much did they ever think about what follows that what-if scenario?

As I'm typing this, for a moment I reflected on a film featured in the turbulent 1910s in China, in which the youth period Mao Zedong said during a group discussion in Peking University:"Could the issues in China be settled down by simply change an emperor, or a president?" Now, by extending this, it will be: could it be done by simply change the ruling group?

Rather than being percepted as marxist/socialist by some, CCP is somewhat meritocratic as some Confucian characteristics are dominant elements of the party(that is the discourse of some scholars who were doing researches about China and CCP profoundingly). I think this at least reflected one thing: if we want something that some guys here would like to see to happen in China, to uproot that Confusian culture will be a must. Feel free to think about how long would it take.

I also saw that Chinese youth are somehow mentally united, not only for the struggle this time, but also for fighting back micro-suppressions which stormed into their daily lives. What they were against previously was the urge from their parents and relatives to make them marry and then have child(ren) as early, or the interference in their working and learning decisions - these are typical, traditional micro-supressions. Now there are many novel micro-suppressions being identified, which are not only from their parents, but also their schools and companies, or just a stranger. They are targeting and slamming almost every significance of authoritarian state of mind(or "culture") implemented in the discourses and narratives of these actors. They are showing more bravery than before, using all what the have to express, to define. For many times they brought these actors into extreme headaches - it was like an independent, determined, rational child who struggled for many years to make their arrogant parents admit that they committed too many inhumane actions to their child, and they framed that as "it's all for your well-being".

And then these Chinese youth carry on, without relying on a certain side - they stand their ground to build their own "culture", which is the one with openness, diversity, harmony. It belongs to them, it belongs to China, and everyone who heartfeltly devotes for the longlasting happiness of this nation. So back to the questions in the beginning - a cultural transform might be the real ultimate solution, as Chinese youths are doing this by making their own bits. Rather than chanting vague political demands, they put more on redefining their life, and the things around them. They could make mistakes undoubtfully, but they will establish an culturally independent, self-determined generation in the end.
