      We have to hope that Xi Jinping stays in power at all costs. Why? Because his faction is the most hostile to the West, and that hostility is the ONLY thing that’s forcing the West to react. If China went back to being all “business friendly” (which is just a lie anyway), then our spineless leaders in the West will go back to let China slowly eat us away without reacting… so I’m sorry, but Xi is the best help the West has had to react, and we can’t lose it.

    Alternate reading: In the 1980s Nestle' was embroiled in a scandal when their milk supplement used in developing countries in Africa was show to be deficient as a mother's milk alternative. Faced with a public relations nightmare, Nestle' developed a strategy whereby the bold Nestle' name would be shrunk significantly on their global consumer products, and their trademark names on items such as Toll House chocolate chips would receive prominent placing on the packaging and in advertisements with the name Nestle' scarcely noticeable.. It could be, the CCP at the direction of Xi are engaged in a simliar strategy. Xi disappears from all the branding during a time of severe economic downturn, and subsequently the branding of Xi as "the New Mao" is abandoned. Instead the CCP mother corporation becomes prominent to soften the backlash against dear leader for some serious misteps.

      Now, rumours like this are more common the people think. Which by itself can be a signal that Xi loses power.

    China tried Democracy. It failed miserably and led to modern day warlordism. China tried an oligarchical republic, that failed and the remnants of that failure is now Taiwan. As long as the majority of the people have food, they believe their rulers have the Mandate of Heaven to continue ruling. This belief is ingrained all throughout China. Combined with the significant cultural differences, numerous dialect differences, hundreds of different ethnic groups, and the sheer size of China, I highly doubt a true democratic form of government can effectively govern. The CCP in the 90s and early to mid 2000's was communist in name only. They were largely de-centralized with significantly less corruption. Things were actually built to a standard code and are still standing. Yet, projects built under Xi, just 6 years ago are falling apart.

    Deng had a brilliant plan to bring China back to prominence, and his handpicked successors Jiang and Hu executed the game plan beautifully. Then Xi came along. Not content to being a steward, he prematurely pushed to advance China to the next stage, to become a regional hegemon, with the ultimate goal to replace the US as the sole superpower.
    Naturally this alarmed the West to China's ambitions and started to put up defenses. Powerful factions in China who were content to let Xi do whatever as long as they are getting rich, suddenly found the money well drying up due to Xi's policies. They've run out of patience with Xi and would not hesitate to offer Xi as sacrificial lamb to get back to business as usual.

      It is true that China suffered alot of injustice however clinging to the past will only drag China down to third world level.
      Whoever replaces Xi ....... The smartest thing they could do is to take the thumb off the heads of the chinese people so they can thrive and prosper in freedom.
      With Xi-thought the chinese people were more and more oppressed , you cannot have a thriving successful country if the spirit of the people is being crushed.
      For the past 5 - 10 years Xi has forced over 700 Buddha statues all over China to be destroyed and temples shut down .
      The best thing for China is for the Chinese Government to allow Buddhism , Taoism , Confuscianism , Christianity maybe to thrive and be practiced freely.
      Continued oppression will cause more chinese citizens to "lay down flat" meaning they gave up hope of life under Xi.
      If Chinese people have spiritual freedom , The society will also thrive , and the economy will grow strong naturally.

      Under the CCP's leadership, the number of Chinese citizens who have died due to the policies and practices of the CCP since the inception of the PRC in 1949 is estimated to be in the 60 to 80 million range. I don't think we see any kind of comparable figures in regard to the US during that time period, where there is such a callous disregard for human life. Do you remember the estimated 10,000 young Chinese protestors who were butchered by China's police goons as a result of the Tiananmen massacre in 1989?
      This is not projection but is cold hard fact, a fact that many CCP true believers may find hard to accept. Closing one's eyes and burying one's head, even if it's the politically required practice as prescribed by one's propaganda masters, in the sand doesn't change reality. If China wants to live in and prosper in the modern world it first needs to modernize its thinking and realize that the world of today is not the same as the world that existed back in Medieval times and before, where conquest and empire building were the norm.

This includes the core values of freedom, democracy, justice, and ensuring the protection of creativity through intellectual property. When a country controls centrally these core values cannot flourish and its people will always favor a governmental system that values opportunity for the people over one that does not.

It took 500 years for England to go from Magna Carta to actual representative democracy, I don't think it's fair to assume other countries could so easily do the same in 20.
    And yes I know about Eastern Europe and Post-War Germany. The difference is that Eastern European countries had pre-existing democratic governments that could serve as a transitional model, and Germany was essentially burned to the ground and occupied so there was basically nothing left of an authoritarian state with which to retake power.

      Not to mention, how many Central Americans would have stayed in their home countries if jobs existed there still?
      How much economic/development, social & political instability resulted from these trade shifts to pacific?
      Quality control was much cheaper & easier to ensure. There was quicker, cheaper transport of goods, more stable supply when goods produced from locally sourced raw materials, labor/products more technically advanced & skilled, less environmental impact from goods produced & transported closer, now these manufacturing & production centers in Caribbean & LatAm have shriveled & died JUST like those in USA. & we spend billions to prop up American continent when these countries were well on their way to developing/growing their own economies... plus, human rights & standard of living improving when underdeveloped countries were able to trade more & more readily with US & Europe.
      I think how different things woukd have been... Central American migrants? the threat of drugs/gangs overrunning Mexico? Poor social/health indicators across Caribbean & LatAm? It's insanity.

      The reason that we "offshored" the manufacturing jobs is because we recognized that the manufacturing was ruining our environment.
      We could have required that any company selling a product in the US needs to prove it is done an environmentally friendly way.
      If the company is going to have to deal with the environmental impact no matter where they produce, then there would have been incentive to produce in the place where they already did instead of moving to somewhere they could pollute all that they wanted.
      Now the Caribbean and Latin America are having their tourism impacted by the environmental impacts of the manufacturing are doing the same thing.

      As the Chinese middle class gains and expects wealth, the Chinese economy will have to evolve its manufacturing capacities and styles.
      There's plenty of industrializing nations which will be the target of investment by post industrial nations for lower precision Mas manufacturing. Basically wherever your clothes were made a decade ago is where companies are going to be shifting their course grade manufacturing, and then in anither decade is where mass fine grade manufacturing. Countries like Vietnam (who hates China BTW) India, and the like. Further if India can clean up their corruption and avoid the religious regressives, they can readily become a democratic economic powerhouse that dwarfs the US economy. Lots of ifs there.
      However post industrial nations like the US have finally started reinvesting in domestic production and manufacturing again, thanks to the Biden administration, so some of that shifting may be slower.

      I don’t know if that you are onto this, but our demographics are collapsing. China is not the only one who is economy is about the sink. The kind of trade we had with China when we had baby boomers in their prime compared to a truncated part of the population pyramid in the youth section in the US, as no one bothered to have any kids over the last 20 years and has only made up through immigration. Mexicans come here and then go home and make fun of it coming from Mexico to the US in the 1990s was a much better arbitrage deal than it is today with the high rents that immigration itself caused. So the high rents that immigrants caused even hurting immigrants And they are building a bunch of manufacturing places in Mexico because cannot keep up so we probably will not be getting that many more Mexicans going forward, especially in another two generations. And we think it’s OK to make our own people so poor that they are not willing to have children . There is no economic future. They are closing schools in 20 years ago. They were consolidating Nick use and birthing units at hospitals. If you wanna work for us, it’s going to take another 18 years to produce one and none of the young want to have kids because they have to work two jobs to pay $2500 for rent and a two bedroom apartment apartment With a roommate. Let’s not pretend that America and it’s economy isn’t a shit show also.

    The odds of this being true are basically nil. Xi Jinping is the most powerful leader China has had since Mao. He was powerful enough to break the 10 year term limit, and overcome the institutional structures that were created post-Mao with the explicit intention of preventing the rise of a second Mao. And after doing that, he further consolidated his power by installing loyalists in every position that mattered.
    The notion that there is a faction that can wheel him out like a puppet to make public announcements while they progressively remove Xi loyalists is laughable when basically everyone that matters was appointed principally on the basis of loyalty over competence. If there was such a faction, and Xi was able to walk around freely, you can be assured that members of said faction would suddenly "disappear" faster than Putin's critics can fall out of windows.

    The demographic bomb has already gone off in China. I just don't see a path back to the manufacturing relationships that formed during global expansion. As an American, I am hopeful that the slide down for China during this collapse is mitigated by an international effort to feed their population and take a humanitarian approach to their needs over the coming decades. Yes, there is a serious regional military threat, but China will not be capable of executing a war soon. We should use that opportunity to build bridges with our former adversaries via food and medical aid. They are going to need it, and we can help. But... they have to ask for it. They won't let aid in without their consent. So, let's be flexible in the international community and help where we can. They are not the last, but they are the biggest by far.

      “We should use that opportunity to build bridges with our former adversaries”
      A few years ago the PRC was not an Adversary to the US. They were a major Trade Partner and yes, a Competitor.
      The West already built bridges in the form of manufacturing and the infrastructure required, at the loss to Western manufacturing. The West did not do this out of the kindness of their heart, but they did do this.
      The PRC-CCP started selling the World cheap shit, and at the same time not buying stuff from the World, putting most of their trade partners into a trade deficit. A country of 110 million such as the Philippines should not be running a trade deficit to a country of 1.4 billion, such as the PRC.
      The CCP pushed to give up or stole Western IPs, and then started making and selling these products.
      The CCP-PRC started giving out loans to small impoverished countries for infrastructure (Often through corruption.), but required these countries to use PRC companies and PRC materials to build these infrastructure, often putting them in debt to the CCP that they could not pay back, and often providing a poor quality product.
      The CCP-PRC also started building up their military and started bullying smaller countries, such as the Philippines.
      The PRC-CCP are bad neighbors, and IMO they deserve all the bad Karma that is coming to them.

      You don't offer help until they beg for it. China knows they have to try Taiwan soon or they might not have another chance until the end of this century.

      @@sassenspeyghel4155 If the top boss at the independent military was corrupt or making poor or costly plans, who could remove that person? If it is a truly independent agency, who has authority over the top person at an independent agency?
      edit: If the central government can still fire that person, than the agency is not actually independent. So ideally, the top job at each independent agency should be elected. And if the central government can chose who stands for election.. again.. is it independent?

      You still believe in elections? I do NOT mean the silliness over the last presidential one and then the complete turn around for the silliness this year. The men, (so far), they put in are chosen puppets. If they hadn't started as willing players, they became willing pawns.

Look at power historically, the power is never given up, it only shapeshifts and forms alliance’s while propping up front men/ fall men. Follow the money we live under the authority of evil, and most are blind to it.
