I've been hearing a lot of talk lately about bad economic times in China.

Their "One Child" policy imposed in 1979 is causing a dire demographic plunge 44 years later, and the nation is getting overly elderly, like an upside down pyramid, with few young workers to support the many seniors.

And many country's people want their manufacturing brought back home. Trump certainly does, and if he wins?

The One-child project was a CIA creation. The author who wrote that book was enlisted by them to propagate.

Probably the one good act that the CIA actually did, win a war without firing a shot.

But can Joe and Hunter afford to have Xi and the CCP crash? Who will they sell out the country to if that happens?

China is imploding but Gordon Chang has been predicting this for the last 20 years. Eventually he’ll be vindicated I guess.

Gordon Chang has his finger on the pulse of Red China.

Gordon Chang tends to let his justifiable hatred of the CCP cloud his judgement. They might be teetering, they might not. I’m not sure Chsng is in a position to really know.

According to unverified Chinese social media report there is massive fire on Chinese navy’s most advanced 980 hull number Type 071 landing ship (Longhushan)

According to social media reports the ship has just completed sea trials, did not officially enter the navy, but can still be considered China’s most advanced landing ship

Some Chinese reports are trying to suggest that a military fire drill is being conducted on the ship.

Although I don’t know much about ships and ship fires, this doesn’t look like a fire drill unless I’m possibly mistaken. Thoughts?

No details provided on the location or information regarding the origins of the fire.

“Covid 19 showed the insanity of allowing your supply chains to wind through China.”


And the lack of change since shows the insanity of the Regime.

Speaking of supply chains, haven’t heard anything lately about the doomsday back up. Same goes for doomsday volcanoes, asteroids, and UFOs. C’mon people! The sky is falling!!

The tabloid media in the UK seems to have switched from fantasies about victory against Russia, to fantasies about victory against China.

Victory? No? But China’s not invincible by far, and have their own unique set of problems. That’s not to say the USA or the UK for that matter, doesn’t have problems.

The USA does until we actually face election fraud and border security head on.

But China has issues and that become more apparent as time goes on.

Any country has some problems, but the UK tabloid media seems to be focused on fantasy collapses of official Regime enemies like Russia or China.

China has massively increased their industrial capacity and military capacity while the West can’t even produce artillery ammunition. Looking at China and predicting collapse is like some Jap General telling the Emperor:

“America had a recession in 1938. They are weak.”

Can someone explain 1 or 2 scenarios of how the CCP collapses while it controls a 2 million man army?

Gordon Chang predicted the collapse of China back in 2001, about the same time Al Gore predicted collapse of Mother Earth. Isn't there a statute of limitations for bad predictions?

The USA has issues that become more apparent as time goes by, too.

Yes, if over a Billion Chinese rise up. A 2 million man army could do little against over a billion riled up and pissed off people.
