I’ve been to China, I worked with a Chinese girl that immigrated to the US, the only thing they have on us are they are more racist and actively fat shame . Revolution is not in they are blood, they are rule followers and easy to control. Look at Covid .

i'm willing to bet, if the 4th turning is on target, we'll have another 1949 style major over haul within the next 5 years (or sooner) because the eco situation is really shitty its been 75 years, ~ 80 years is the end of the cycle.

TS 1989 and HK 2019. Two cases in recent history everyone should be aware of. People in China, they know. Eventually it will be 1949 all over again, just a matter of time. What isn't widely publicized are the thousands of riots and protests inside china every year. its hidden from the west, because the ccp controls the media. The truth is most of HK knows about TS 1989. CCP bailed on their promise to 1 country 2 systems as agreed to for HK after the 1997 handover from the Brits and decided to cut off legal freedoms in free speech, internet and media in HK that isn't available on the mainland People on the mainland side in Shenzhen, they know what the govt did to people in HK in 2019, and they think its terrible but can't do anything about it. The whole story is more complicated than what is told to the media in the west. Btw, fun fact, Radio Free Asia is a CIA outfit. HK was swarming with MI6 and CIA heavily afaik before 2019 and the 2020 NSL clamp down. now HK is just an ordinary Chinese city without the same freedoms. That's also why most western businesses have moved out of the city driving the economies into the toilet. Stupidity of a authoritarian ruling class that is the CCP. see docs below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_RdnVtfZPY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3RzKKfNkTk
