  • Will the social and economic turmoil in China lead to a civil war?
    Hong Kong-based political analyst TL Tsim has an inside perspective on China to understand the real relationship between the two countries and capital flows for the rest of the world.
    In this special Le Club B, TL looks ahead to the end of the Sino-British Joint Declaration in 2047 and back to the history of Chinese dynasties for clues on the likely power struggles to come. Published on November 4th, 2016 on Real Vision.

Probably not because there has been no media coverage because it does not work with the anti-Chinese propaganda war being waged.

      Comrade Freeman - As a high ranking Inner Party member, it is with great emotion that I urge you to turn yourself over to The Party where you can be MindPurged™. The proletarian masses need not concern themselves with the higher pursuits of the mind. It's been taken care of for them by us - The Global Elites !
      Furthermore, recent interpretations of The Gospel According to Marks predict that Jesus will return to earth, in the mid-1800s, in the form of a bearded German philosopher - establishing the world's first true religion - Leninism.
      Therefore, let us pray to the Progressive Holy Trinity; Marx (the Father), Lenin (the Son), and the Communist Party (the Holy Ghost) that one day soon we will be re-educated enough to bear the title 'new humans', having conquered our degenerate capitalistic instincts and be found worthy enough to live in a perfect futuristic communist society, possibly in downtown Baltimore, or Venezuela.
      "For Marx so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Manifesto, that whosoever believeth in it should not perish, but be purged at the end of his usefulness."

Yes, I wish they could simply march in the streets with their colorful umbrellas to keep their freedom but communist china would simply arrest them all and send them to "re-education" camps when the world wasn't watching as they have done with muslim chinese groups in the western provinces.

      Eric Vannavong They have already said that they are Hong Kongers. Seems like you can’t read what they wrote. The issue here is nationality, not ethnicity/race. Many confuse nationality with ethnicity and race, especially PRCs, but often, non-PRC ethnic Chinese as well. It is like saying that all White people are the same, that Canadian Caucasians, US Caucasians, Argentinian Caucasians, Romanian Caucasians, Czech Caucasians, French Caucasians, Georgian Caucasians, Estonian Caucasians, etc, are all the same, practise the same culture and uphold the same values. Any Caucasian from any of these countries will tell you that is NOT true.
      So, if that is not true for all Caucasians, why do you think it should be true for the Chinese or Han race? The culture and values are very dissimilar between an ethnic Chinese in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, the USA, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, the UK, etc.
      Only uneducated or brainwashed people think that all ethnic Chinese are the same everywhere. Of course, uneducated and brainwashed ethnic Chinese themselves could think this way, and thus compel themselves to behave in similar ways to other ethnic Chinese, thus creating a stereotype.

    I enjoyed this whole conversation TL Tsim. I think this time things are different. The world was based on agriculture and wind, water, and muscle energy with the tipping point to thermal energy about 1820. The population sustainable by the planet was about 1.1 Billion people and about about 0.1 Billion were wealthy and the rest 1.0 Billion were impoverished. The dominant form of government was a class system where the wealthy class make all the rules for everyone else and had the capacity to purchase or use force to get their way. The history you read about China and for that matter anywhere on the planet was this agriculture class society.
    The change to thermal machines caused an increase in the production of food and an increase in population. The upper class stayed at about 9% of the population as it grew to today it is about 7.3 Billion and a steady compounding rate, however; the wealth in the hands of the 9% only grew by about 30% while the portion of people at the poverty level rose at a slower rate then the population until about 1970 reaching a peak of about 1.8 B. The compounding rate didn't change but the poverty level started to decrease at an accelerating rate till today it is about 0.8 Billion. This includes in China Mr. Tsim.
    I believe that individualism exist in China and that as the people get wealthy the fact that they see free enterprise and individual choices make their lives better then the nature of China will be altered. The Roman's develop the welfare state as a means of maintaining sufficient portion of the population dependent on a 'master mind' style government. China socialist, governing upper class, may limit their own economic advancement to maintain a dependent class, a certain level of poverty. The push to put a leash on Hong Kong is a realization of the problem created by wealth. Taiwan represents the same problem that they will not address until they gain experience in Hong Kong. Will the government stand or will it fall apart as the USSR did? The problem is that the bureaucrats that are the means of performing government functions employ more then the 9% of the population which mean they have to be from the people being suppressed.

    Unfortunately, the speaker is woefully misinformed about the collapse of the USSR. The USSR collapsed purely due to financial issues, not one of a division of power. They could no longer afford to keep control of all of the areas in the USSR. In terms of China, they're currently in Era of Yuri Andropov. He did largely the exact same things Xi Jingping is trying to do and that largely led to the collapse of the Soviet Union.
    Now whether or not that'll happen in China is still up for debate since the situation is different, but this is currently exactly how the collapse of the USSR started. Similar policies, similar domestic issues, and similar financial issues. Even a similar leader. It's scary how closely the situation mirrors what happened in USSR.

    T L Tsim's thoughful analysis of China is amazing. Perfect, lucid analysis of the current situation and possible future. For me the scary possibility is the possibility for future civil war in China. If I were pressed upon this point, I would think this is the most likely outcome of future China. This stems for the section Mr. Tsim gives on the length of China royal dynasties versus western dynasties. Reviewing wikipedia on China's history from fall of Qing dynasty in 1910 into the 1930s with Japanese invasion, all I see is civil war with warlords splitting up the country. The contrarian bet would be that China does not continue on the upward course of economic expansion, but rather due to political frustrations, will collapse back into internal conflict.
