Well, I kinda agree with you here, although I think wangrui is NOT totally stupid to have said that.
I KNOW ,not I think, that there are certain values that are mean to be universal to human kind.
Making democracy something that Chinese, especially mainlanders, can only admire from afar is something I believe to be part of the brainwashing propaganda.
Yet the balance here is whether you want a certain type of stability based on which the economy can grow really quick or a real good idea that can't be possibly enforced within a short time.
I'm totally unashamed to be a calculating ***** here, and I'd say that given all the problems we've got here now, I'd reluctantly pick the former.
Maybe this is the bashed-wife mentality...
But anyway, unless there is something that proves otherwise, I don't consider undergoing some drastic social change a good idea.
FINALLY, it's a shame that a Chinese person would ever say something like Chinese don't need democracy.
A REAL SHAME, that is.
