    (Reality in China becomes more insanely dystopian by the day. Though the plight of the homeless in Western nations is described in vaingloriously nonsensical terms very briefly toward the end of the vide, the rest of the video is very revealing, with authentic footage of the every day lives of citizens. Particulary notable is how terribly the children are being treated and mind controlled, and how the huge gap in mentality between the elders who grew up under Mao and the present generations causes great tension. One cannot help but wonder what the suicide rates are in China, and I would imagine they must be very high. But the CCP would surely never allow such statistics to be published.)

    "This is the first day of a new term. Kindergarten teachers ask students to report each other's recent behaviors. This early exposure to a culture of mutual accusations begs the question: will these children grow up trusting others? Will they believe in their own choices? Once the bridge of trust crumbles, where do human relations stand?
    There's a saying, "There is no utmost evil, only escalating malevolence." Indeed, should historians study our epoch, they might question its very authenticity, deeming contemporary China's events nearly inconceivable."

    The CCP’s Days Are Numbered: Drones, Nuclear Subs, Hypersonic Missiles – All Have Turned To Tofu

    (This piece was definitely designed by someone to be anti-CCP propaganda and is exaggerated (all drones, missiles, etc.have not turned to tofu, obviously), but there is some truth there as well.
    The CCP's military expenditures on war preparedness is enormous, but the same ineptness and lack of expertise characterized by Chinese technology and infrastructure in general is also present in the military no doubt, though to what extent is unknown.
    I was very surprised that China got to the Moon, but I imagine they probably had a lot of assistance with that from Russia. )

    "In recent weeks, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has faced a string of military misfortunes. This list includes devastating damages to military installations in Zhuozhou due to unprecedented flooding, the compromising of AI learning data for their drone fleet, the covert mishap concerning the type 093 nuclear submarine, and a significant breach in their hypersonic missile project's security.

    Xi Jinping’s Dramatic Life-Or-Death Escape Details Revealed
    China Observer
    287K subscribers
    Oct 5, 2023

    Details have emerged online about a dramatic assassination attempt on Xi Jinping.
    During the BRICS meeting in South Africa, Xi Jinping reportedly received a confidential tip-off.
    It's alleged that several high-ranking officials within the Chinese military plotted to shoot down Xi's plane using missiles once it entered the southwestern airspace of China on its return journey.
    The orchestrator of this supposed plot is believed to be Li Yuchao, the former commander of the Rocket Force.
    Every detail, from timing to the route and location, had purportedly been meticulously planned.
    In response to this threat, Xi is said to have altered his flight path to directly land in Xinjiang, from where he discreetly traveled back to Beijing by train.
    Sources suggest that the leak came from Xie Mingsheng, Li Yuchao's secretary, who is rumored to be a covert operative planted by the National Security Bureau."

    A Drunk China, Xi's Profound Habit Unveiled: Drinking Is an Obligation for CCP Officiers
    China Observer

    Oct 8, 2023

    ( This explains a lot about one likely cause of the CCP's ineptitude and corruption.)

    "On September 11, news broke of the prison death of Yuan Renguo, once a leading figure at Moutai, China’s famous liquor brand. The next day, the past interactions and drinking anecdotes between Chinese president Xi Jinping and Yuan resurfaced, putting Xi at the center of public discussion. Shockingly, many of Xi's healthcare staff were also reported to have died under mysterious circumstances.
    Back in June 2005, the "Moutai Report" revealed Xi Jinping's fondness for Moutai liquor. Xi even consulted Yuan on Moutai's supposed liver-protection benefits. Their meeting took place at the West Lake State Guesthouse in Hangzhou on June 20, 2005."

    This revision touches on a wide range of issues, from insulting martyrs and pyramid schemes to exam cheating and drone flights. The most controversial are provisions against actions and symbols "harming the spirit of the Chinese nation or hurting its feelings."
    Wearing or displaying symbols in public places that "damage the spirit of the Chinese nation or hurt the feelings of the Chinese people," as well as "producing, disseminating, promoting, or distributing items or statements that harm the spirit of the Chinese nation or hurt its feelings," could result in a detention of 5 to 10 days or a fine ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 yuan. In severe cases, the penalty could escalate to a 10 to 15-day detention, coupled with a fine of up to 5,000 yuan."

    It has a subtitle reading "Foreign Media Discusses the White Paper on the Community of Shared Human Destiny".
    The article caused quite a stir upon its release, shocking many netizens and sparking discussions and ridicule.
    Some internet users commented, "How can a place without even the freedom of thought claim to be the world's ideological capital?

    No Rebar in the Tofu-Dreg Bridges? Piers as Thin as Poles! Only Two Cars Can Topple the Bridge
    China Observer
    10/9/23

    (Pity the unsuspecting third world countries where Chinese construction companies have been enlisted to build their infrastructure! The video shows just a sampling of the distrous consequences of the shortcuts regularly taken and blatant corruption regularly characterized by shabby construction projects in China itself, resulting in many casualties, with no apparent end in sight.)

    "Under the governance of the Chinese Communist Party, Mainland China has witnessed recurring incidents of road, bridge, and building collapses, leading to countless tragedies.
    Many of these constructions suffered from cost-cutting during the building process, lax oversight, and poor safety inspections, resulting in subpar engineering.
    These buildings are often referred to as "tofu-dreg projects," referring to their tendency to crumble.
    Such blatant disregard for human safety in pursuit of personal gains is sadly one of the notorious "features" of China's current landscape."

    China’s Tofu-Dreg High-Speed Rail With Nearly $1 Trillion in Debt! Where's the Money Gone?
    China Observer

    "Many of China's large-scale infrastructure projects, due to quality concerns, are colloquially dubbed as "tofu-dreg projects."
    Notably, some are high-speed rail initiatives managed by major state-owned enterprises, such as divisions in China Construction or China Railway, operating under a principal contracting system.
    Yet, a prevailing practice among these primary contractors is to retain half of the allocated funds upon winning the bid.
    Subsequently, the project undergoes a series of subcontracts, which can result in the actual construction teams receiving a sum possibly lower than half of the initially stipulated budget."

    "The Hangzhou 2022 Asian Games Organizing Committee hasn't disclosed the total cost of hosting the games, but the Hangzhou government mentioned that over 200 billion yuan (approximately 30 billion US dollars) was spent on transport infrastructure, competition venues, the Athletes' Village, and other facilities over five years leading up to 2020.
    According to the BBC, a Hangzhou resident surnamed Jiang remarked that the money spent on the Asian Games would have been better used to improve the living standards of ordinary citizens and the youth. "It's hard to find jobs now. Some companies have gone bankrupt. Today's young people have it tough." "

    CCP’s Rogue PR War Fails Miserably! Boycott Japanese Goods Yet Fish in Japan’s Waters
    China Observer

    Following Japan's discharge of nuclear wastewater from the Fukushima plant, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) inflamed nationalistic sentiments among its citizens. Some expressed their anger in extreme ways. At the International Atomic Energy Agency's annual meeting on September 25, among its 177 member states, only China voiced opposition to Japan's decision to release the treated water into the ocean. Ironically, while the CCP bans the import of Japanese seafood, Chinese fishing vessels have been spotted fishing off the Japanese coast, selling their catch as "Chinese seafood" domestically.
