Funny, most ppl would argue that China's more capitalistic than France And the city that I live in is often called "the last fortress of capitalism". And no, I'm not arguing we're necessarily better, just more capitalistic.

As for NED's support of RSF and many other pro-Tibet parties (I won't call them NGOs, any party that's funded by NED automatically loses its credibility in my eyes), you can find out from their website. When the scandal of RSF's funding broke, Robert Ménard threatened to sue the reporter that broke the news. And I thought him a staunch supporter of press freedom.
