Charter 08, sadly, was doomed from the very beginning.
The Chinese legal system has been used to suppress the encroachment of Western principles both from within that system and from without. They aren't going to stop anytime soon.
Writing about these things and spreading the word is good. It's important for China to know that the world is watching and taking account of their misdeeds, but sadly, I fear they simply don't care.
