China coming apart

[Hawkeye10]

I wonder how many at the protesters are smart enough to not take their phones. The Chinese surveillance state is very advanced technically, and is huge. I recently heard someone (dont remember who) say that the Chinese spend more on internal security than they do for all of their military.

I have read several stories in the last couple of months predicting terrible times for China. They appear to be set up for a 2008 crash. The wealthy and bankers spent heavily on real estate via loans. They are coming due. The apartments are empty and over built.

It is not clear that the party is losing control. It is too early to say anything about what this means.

It's pretty clear.

I see no facts, no link, no proof, so all that's left is an opinion.

There must be something wrong with your eyes.

Such a drama queen!

The very first post after the OP. A complete nothing of a post. That didn't take long for the idiots to show up.

Nope. The government owns those buildings. The government owns the bank too.

Xi risking complete power collapse as widespread protests erupt over draconian lockdowns

Xi Jinping's subjects in China may have reached a tipping point with the country's laws.

Xi Jinping is facing potential downfall, after having implemented various Orwellian measures to protect his hold on power. It includes draining billions from state funds to detect and suppress criticism of himself and the Communist Party.

However, the Covid-19 challenge has proved too difficult, as strict lockdowns have lead to more serious protests.

It comes after Beijing was gripped by hardline security measures ahead of the Communist Party congress last month

I will remind you what happened to the Gang of Four!

Gang of Four, Chinese (Pinyin) Sirenbang or (Wade-Giles romanization) Ssu-jen-pang, the most powerful members of a radical political elite convicted for implementing the harsh policies directed by Chinese Communist Party (CCP) chairman Mao Zedong during the Cultural Revolution (1966–76). The group included Mao’s third wife, Jiang Qing, and Wang Hongwen, Zhang Chunqiao, and Yao Wenyuan. Their backgrounds were similar in that prior to 1966 all four were low- or middle-ranking officials who lacked leverage within the existing power structure.

Shared traits included their ability to manipulate the mass media, their good standing with Mao, and their dislike of and subsequent desire to overthrow moderate government officials who clustered around Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping.
