It's relevant, along with the third quote, to the point about blaming China more than the US. I'm willing to accept some degree of complicity, but I don't see how "responsible" is appropriate - the US is responsible for American imperialism, not fucking China. And "doomed the international communist movement" again seem to portray China as the primary reason - as if if China hadn't done Reform and Opening-up this somehow would have prevented the fall of the USSR, as if imperialism and capitalism were just on the brink of collapse until China somehow saved them.
