You haven't offered anything to prove the article right. I, for my part, filled in the missing holes in the argument, which makes it collapse. You cannot predicate anything on a statement that is based on pie-in-the-sky hope (authoritarian Red China transitioning by itself to a more open society, especially while you continue to strengthen the authoritarians). WADR, are you just trolling? because it appears you are just blatantly ignoring the obvious.
You haven’t offered anything remotely akin to proof that the article is wrong
Invalid points are not salient. Salient points do not ignore reality.
You don’t even bother to grasp the salient points
You are mighty impressed with your own arguments. However they aren’t even vaguely close to as good as you seem to think they are.
But it’s also quite apparent that arguing with you is as fruitful as arguing with a wall, so I’ll pass. Have fun with your delusions.
