Hold the water back until it complete collapses and washes away 400 million people and a sizable percent of China’s stolen industrial base? Will that be enough to overthrow the communist government?

In other words, we are not going to tell you anything significant. Instead we are going to set up a smokescreen and then hope for the best.

Kinda like how they handled the Wuhan Flu.

YES! THIS! Concrete is supposed to warp and bend! It’s a feature, not a bug!

"not one of the 12,000 sensors fitted throughout the humongous concrete barrier had ever flashed red on the central control panel."

Bad sensors?

Concrete doesn’t like to bend and cracks often lead to catastrophic failures. So, basically, the dam is only being held together by the embedded rebar. And who knows how good Chinese rebar is!

Is “deformed but safe” the Chinese version of “fake but accurate”?
