The CCP claims that the photo was a DISTORTED satellite image and the Dam remains the same as it was when it was built.

I thought this was about Three Gorgeous Dames...
“Hello Gorges!”
So here’s another article. Saw this on the science channel.

RE: They should be fine, considering the historical high quality of communist infrastructure projects. /s
The CCP has assured the public that the Dam is strong enough to withstand the pressure from the flood waters and the torrential rain by several orders of a magnitude.

Chang Sha! Here we come!
RE: Maybe God is punishing them for their assaults on His church.
Makes no sense, there are MILLIONS of faithful Christians living in the flood affected areas, why punish them for their faithfulness?
To get an idea of the possible damage that a collapse of the dam would cause imagine this. Picture a dam across the Mississippi river 200 miles upstream of St. Louis. The dam is six hundred feet tall and the lake behind it stretches for 300 miles. Picture all of the cities threatened by it, St. Louis, Memphis, Baton Rouge. Except instead of New Orleans at the mouth of the river imagine that it is New York city, the heart of our financial and banking infrastructure, like Shanghai is in China. That should give you some idea of the risk they are running.
Software issue. The images were not stitched properly.
Dam.
They will be slammed.
Some folks think that weather manipulation is actually a real thing.
I wonder if by any chance this is: “Hey, thanks for the virus. Here — have some rain.”
Its a dam in China - not the US where the highest quality concrete was used. In China the concrete vendor that gives the highest profit to the builder, regardless of quality wins the bid, if it is bid and does not go directly to someone’s relative.
International inspectors invited in to check on the quality found substandard concrete and were kicked out. It just a matter of time before there is a catastrophic failure
The dam is buckled and cracked but not to the extent shown in that image. I’m not an engineer, but I don’t think a dam could survive that amount of distortion.
Petticoat Junction.
I’ve seen numerous comments here that say if that dam collapses, it would be catastrophic.
Not for me.
Highly probable. If you google three gorges dam and go to satellite image there is no deformation visible like that shown in the 2018 image.
It’s the predictions that have failed.
I think that dam is built better than ‘experts’ think.
That photo is BS, it’s distorted. The dam isn’t “bent”.
That photo is BS, it’s distorted. The dam isn’t “bent”.
God sent millions of His faithful to their deaths in the 1940s.

Also is claim by a student writing in defense of the dam that image of wavy dam in misleading:
