A second fatal shooting by immigration agents spurs anger in the US, China’s top military general is ousted, and Donald Trump threatens Canada with tariffs.
This wave is likely not as paranoud as you may think. I’ve seen a number of utube commentators talking about a large power struggle in the CCP over the last six months.
I struggle to see it. It’s the same group of people that allowed Xi Jinping to become president for life in the first place. They’ve all been reaping the rewards of recent conquests, and even though they’ve continued the trend of cruelty this time they haven’t lost any global market shares.
The only thing that could convince me that his rule is actually at risk is a boatload of evidence that somebody in the party had adequate ability and desire to completely replace him OR internal documents showing that officials were afraid of the administration heavily pushing toward WWIII with their support of Russia and Iran as well as their psyops throughout the west, namely TikTok.
When Xi was picked, he was picked for the same reasons that Putin was picked - they looked like mild centrist candidates (ironic)
Over the last decade, Xi hss focused a lot more on gaining authoritarian control over the party, the military, and the economy - using the law, and power plays. This has taken a lot of power from both the Capitalists, and the princelings.

I remember reading this like 5 years ago? There was another power struggle and Xi won and rooted out all opposition.
I guess these guys changed their minds lately

Ask Jack Ma if he is still happy with Xi.
