The Communist Party would lose its control over the people since the people would have psychologically changed and the end of Communism would be heralded!
It is all a Mind Game - control of the Mind!!
I had read something on these lines written by a British chap years ago when I was in school of how to control the mind, corrupt the youth and change the system!

The end of Communist rule in China has long been accomplished. Every body dreams about the "American Dream". Congratulations, USA!
CCP is nothing but yet another authority of a largely capitalized country, who tries desperately to maintain its rule for the $$. Even their communist skins are full of "Chinese (American?) character" nowadays.
Nationalism turn on the government itself? As long as I can see from the Chinese forums, not necessarily. Previously intensely debated domestic issues has been overwhelmed by anti-west posts. I have never seen CCP gained so much one-sided support in recent years.
Fooled by CCP press censor? Could be. But the burst of Nationalism coupled with a ruling authority at its prime should definitely scare the world more.
