I think it's important to remember that the original members of the Tiananmen Square protest were orthodox Marxists who were protesting the CCP's drift away from "true Communism." These protesters were quickly silenced and eliminated not long after the fall of the CCP, along with the advent of the private school empire that currently dominates Chinese education where the affulent can buy themselves a world class education while groups such as the Tibetans, Uighurs, and other groups are essentially "left out" of the education system entirely and which painted Communism as an inalienable evil which was a cancer on the world. Hell, there are alarming studies that suggest that the Native Taiwanese languages could be extinct by 2050 if major regional attempts to go and revive and record the many languages wasn't done. I will admit that this is rather ununiform across the "New China;" the current Governor of Manchuria has been a very active proponent of the revitalization of the Manchu language, and authorities in Inner Mongolia have fostered Mongol language programs in their dimense. And it is better than what is happening in Russia; the Ket language is only the most recent to go extinct due to regional "economic Russification" programs. Unfortunately, the march of capitalism, at least so far, seems indifferent to these minority groups in most areas.
I will say the revival of religion in China has been interesting to watch. For example, Manicheanism, which for generations was thought to be long extinct, has taken Fujian by storm, successfully competing with the Southern Baptist and Pentecostal missionaries that have swarmed China after it's "opening" in the same way they have nearly every thawing of a State Atheist system.
