In the past, one CCP tactic has been to attempt to make a positive story out of a tragedy in order to obfuscate the full truth from Chinese people.

A wide swath of southern China braced Sunday for more seasonal rains and flooding that state media said has already left more than 120 people dead or missing this year.

If the Three Gorges Dam lets go, it will be very hard for the CCP to distract people from the news.

I’m hoping the Three Gorges Dam gives way this year. They need rain. Lots and lots of rain.

I have nothing against any given individual Chinese, but the CCP is pure evil.

I pray for those in the path of the Three Gorges Dam. I cannot imagine what would happen if that dam fails.

I agree with you. It is the government of that country that is evil.

Even to build that dam in the first place, hundreds of thousands of people were displaced, ancient temples inundated, and tremendous strain put on the environment.

Somethings gotta give, and it won’t be pretty.

The government also trumpeted that although the average family lost two people to flood waters the subsequent savings on dinner meals was equal to 16 American cents.

Yes— it is the government. The country and its history are interesting, and the people are wonderful. Thoughtful and caring.

Send it to the West Coast and Northwest! We sure need it. No rain in North Idaho in March, April and May. A tiny bit in June. Dry July so far. Everything is parched.

I’m pretty sure that the total displaced for that monstrosity was around 7 million people.

Indeed. And when PRESIDENT Trump dubbed COVID19 "The Chinese Virus", he was not disparaging Chinese People, especially not Americans of Chinese ancestry. He was talking about the GOVERNMENT of communist China.

It would be a dam shame.
