Quote:In this video, examines growing public anger in China, focusing on rising protests, democracy calls, and the impact of Xi Jinping’s leadership. It references the crackdown on dissent, highlighting single-person demonstrations (like Chengdu’s “bridge banners”) and major protest movements, including the earlier Hong Kong uprisings. The text ties Xi’s internal clampdown to economic stresses—particularly the deflating real estate sector, youth unemployment, and the foreign trade tensions that have weakened the once-strong Chinese economy. It portrays how the public’s frustration with inflation and job scarcity fuels demands for reforms, culminating in signs of deeper turmoil. Comparisons are drawn to the historical patterns of purges, alluding to Stalin’s approach, and Xi’s potential vulnerability despite his power. This narrative suggests that discontent runs through every level of society: from disillusioned youth to overextended families facing precarious finances. Ultimately, it posits that China’s centralized, autocratic system could face mounting instability as voices for democracy and economic redress intensify, raising questions about Xi’s long-term hold on power.




I have wondered why stuff China has built is falling apart ... Anything with Chinese concrete and rebar has has a big problem,,, They dredge sand from the ocean (think salt corrosion ) and build bridges and building with the stuff and as determined with the collapse of the high rise (made by China) in Bangkok the Chinese rebar is junk.
