GammaGlobulin Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) For many years, many have speculated that Xi might kill China, instead of saving it. Here is a report from DW. Is this just wishful thinking, once more? Or, THIS TIME, will Xi kill China, finally? Xi is in his own bubble, of course. But then, how much will this matter? These days, I don't really care, anymore, one way or the other. I gave up caring a decade ago. If Taiwan gets destroyed and turned to dust, I no longer care. If Taiwan attacks China and invades Beijing, I could not care less. There are also other cataclysmic events that might overtake the world, potentially, before the China Resolution of 1949 reaches its final conclusion. Wait and see. Sure, I am curious. But, I do not care as I once did. Regards, Comrade Gamma Edited March 23 by GammaGlobulin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfd101 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 No, but one day China may - one way or another - kill Xi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearbox Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Comrade Gamma it depends on the point of view and the narrative. Deutsche Welle is a government propaganda outlet, they rather focus on the miserable state of the German economy. If you follow the real numbers China logged quite impressive trade numbers the first two months of the year. Now there is a bit of squealing from the usual suspects - "We want to manufacture goods too! They are eating our lunch!" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xi has helped raise the living standards of millions of people in China over the past couple of decades. So it seems like Western anti-china propaganda to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Comrade Frog, But, did you forget the 45 - 55 million dead during the Great Leap Backward? Did you read Tombstone? Did you forget the Cultural Revolution? IDK, because I don't know you. Still, I am very willing to listen to your opinions. No problem....Sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xi is a lover of Mao. Xi seeks to be remembered as the Second Mao, Just like the Second Coming of Christ..... Marxism is a Faith Based philosophy.

connda Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) As the quote attributed to Albert Einstein stated, "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." And as General Smedely Butler said - "War's a racket." And most of you, from warmongers to anti-war alike, won't survive WWIII.

But perhaps the warmongers may want to take a good hard look in the mirror at some point and admit to themselves that they have some level of mental illness for wishing harm on other people? How sick do you have to be to cheer for war? Don't be chicken-<deleted>. Walk like a matador. Face your demons.

Have you ever known a psychopath to take a look in the mirror, and then to become overly worried that.... He might be psychopathic? Psychopaths do not worry. That is part of their nature.

Speaking of ilks, the shining city on a hill has just recently permanently stationed Green Berets on Kinman Island. That's not just some lonely outpost in the South China Sea. Kinman Island lies in Xiamen Harbor just 6 miles from Xiamen Port and City, with closest point barely over one mile from mainland China. Apparently we weren't content with pulling Ukraine into NATO leading to the destruction of that country and loss of up to half a million Ukrainian men. Now we want to use the bodies of Taiwan's young men to "hurt" China. Expect to see reports of "unprovoked Chinese aggression" in the near future. But as a lovely young lady once said when asked about the deaths of half a million Iraqi children, "We think the price is worth it."

This...IS...quite an interesting development! I did not know this. Interesting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Game Changer, for sure, if true!) Sounds to me like some sort of JOHN WAYNE move...or....movie, even....maybe.... (Being the genius that I am, I do know were Jinmen is. I recall, in 1955, the bombardment of Jinmen, for example....)

This is TOTALLY not acceptable to the CPC, and I am not just talking about Xi..... Yes, they do. They know exactly what they're doing. They're going to keep pushing, increasing the heat on the frogs in the kettle bit by bit, and then act surprised when they get "unprovoked" pushback. Same with Ukraine. They knew where the red lines were, but they thought if they could overthrow the government and get "our guy" in place, they could steal the "Soviet" naval base on Crimea from Russia. Thing is, this is an election year, and both candidates need to out-anti-CCP the other. Any move by China to counter the threat, and it IS a threat, will require a counter-counter-move to satisfy the domestic audience.

There are some Afro-Americans in Congress who do not realize that Guam will never tip over, and invert itself, due to the weight of the American Service People based on Guam. I guess you, ALSO, recall the idiocy of this Afro....? This guys has a HUGE IQ problem. Guam is a very small island..... Watch and smoke some reefer, too..... Haha.... 12 miles wide! (How many SQUARE MILES might that be?????????????. This is the state of affairs in the USA in Georgia.) Anyway, we DO NOT ANTICIPATE that Guam will tip over and capsize in the near future.....maybe.... Georgia is such a smart State of the United States!

BUT, as you correctly state: Xi is now putting this Wake-Up Call on "the fast lane", for sure. Turns out that Gordon Chang will have the LAST LAUGH, in the end.....! Cornell is not one of the better IVYs.... But, Gordon Chang is not stupid, either. He his a devout Christian....yet.... I will not hold this against him, either.

GammaGlobulin Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 So, you might say that the US Gov knows what is going on, on JinMen? I very much doubt it. And, here is why: Definitely very difficult to get a lower score on the SATs.... If one just shows up...and... Sharpens one's No2 Pencil. Hard to find a dumber guy in the USA than this..... One would think...but.... There are millions of them..... All, maybe, are voting for Trump, too. In China, the guys in Gov are actually quite intelligent...... This guy, Hank, by comparison, has sort of a BLANK STARE about him..... What a NITWIT..... Hahahahaha.....

The Old Bull Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Xi does not need to invade Taiwan just wait and they will come of their own accord as soon as it becomes more beneficial. The US likes to keep them pumped up so they keep buying armaments, so don't believe US bull **** . They have already changed the name of the airport from Chiang Kai-shek to Taoyuan.
