Nice fantasy, but no. They’re all commies there.
I certainly hope so. But... what will come after?
Prayers up.
Wow! Sick? it sure is making WIDE CONQUERING ROADS of dominance all over the Globe! Sick? I think not!
We can only hope so.
Very interesting. I’ve been thinking the way to avoid a seemingly inevitable conflict with nuclear armed China, is for the US to undermine the Chinese leadership on human rights grounds, and encourage the the Chinese people to seek liberty from their communist masters.
This is the constant fear of the CCP because they know they do not represent most of their population.
Of course this would have to be done by a DJT, I can’t imagine any democrat pulling it off.
The inevitable collapse of the CCP will take the globalist elites with it, but this will take a substantial toll of the global economy.
My thoughts, also. China is all over the map with projects, that give them more control over other countries. That's a kind of "sick" that the U.S.A. used to enjoy. We're the sick country, under the Democrats rule.
Just like Russia wants a czar and follows Putin, China wants an Emperor. The CCP may well collapse, but it will not be replaced by something like Parliament or Congress.
Of course there are power struggles within the CCP.
But replacing Xi with another ChiCom is not progress.
“A group of Chinese officials might stage an internal coup against Chinese leader Xi Jinping, and transition China to a democratic political system”
Fantasy.
All power comes through the barrel of a gun.
Stage a coup. Trade one dictator for another. Just like the countries in Africa s s Central/South America.
I wonder if the folks that have raised billions out of control of the CCP are happy with this book. Given that it just might have put targets in their back.
CCP leadership ain’t going down without a fight. Be a shame if all these guys started dying in car wrecks, home invasions, end up in Ft Marcy Park. The CCP folks are pretty tight with the Clintons.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, but more ruthless in consolidating power.
Saw a photo of the food trays they are giving athletes in isolation. If that is what they are giving them, the Chinese people must be starving.
Yes, just like the way those Soviet officials took care of Stalin…oh, wait. /s
The current Emperor’s #1 fear is being deposed in just such a coup, and he has been working hard for a decade to weaken his rivals. The man who could pull it off would only be someone harder and more dangerous than Xi - not some mild-mannered, democracy-minded Guangzhou businessmen who are unhappy with their recent cash flows.
Big problem. Most of the human race is stupid and sinful. I'm sure it's worse in Communist China because such regimes bring out the worst in the people, not the best.
So, attributed to Winston Churchill: "The strongest argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with any voter." That's why the US does NOT have a democracy.
Theater thing the Chinese want to be is American.
We can always dream vaguely of an overthrow of the Commies. Much more likely is a millions dead bloodbath followed by tighter control.
A Christian woman (strongly anti Communist) born in China and studying here said to me of the Tiananmen Square guy who did the face off against the tank: “How could anyone have been so stupid as to think someone in power cared what he thought and would spare his life?” She heard the many stories (denied) that thousands of similar dissidents were killed and disposed of without a trace along with that guy.
