I’d certainly like to see the Chicoms gone from all of China, but after such a revolution China would be a political basket case for decades to come. I would expect the nation to divide along sectarian lines, with Hong Kong becoming an independent city state, probably Shanghi, too. The country would shatter like a dropped piece of glass, as the USSR did.
