10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11 The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. Psalm 33

1) the near total control of peoples’ thinking and knowledge of history through state control of schools, the internet, and all media;
2) the control of people’s behavior through a digital currency controlled by the state with accounts for every Chinese citizen - accounts that the government can turn off when account holder’s social credit score drops or when the account holder travels outside a zone prescribed by government;
3) the control of people by requiring universal health passports;
4) the control of people by way of wall-to-wall facial-recognition camera surveillance.

5) Mandatory possession of a cell phone at all times - to which police are able to inspect on demand;
6) Green, Yellow, Red QR codes to permit or deny access to everything, including exit or entry into one’s own apartment - not to be confused with social credit score;
7) Mandatory covid testing daily and additional tests to gain entry into public venues, like school;
8) Testing revenue is now 1.3% of China’s GDP.
All about elites controlling the non-elites. Or death of the middle class, what Communists always dream of.
Communism.
And I notice that George, Klaus, Bill, Melinda, and ol’ Jubal don’t mind at all that China has no “gay rights.” But anywhere else (except maybe Iran) it’s the most important thing in the world!
Peruse later.
