Chinese Communist Party Megathread - Cold War 2: Electric Boogaloo

[AcidityLiquidity]

There's thousands and thousands of proletarian riots in China every year (poor farmers and the bottom rung of the city populations) because the government treats them like shit, student protests get the attention of course. Of course the government classifies one person on a corner protesting something as a riot, but the bugmen don't all work easy in the grorious hive

Unfortunately for them, the best way to stop those is to crush them like they do in China. You're shit eating farmers will eventually stop rising up if you beat their face in enough.
The video a few posts up showing those CCP thugs straight up mauling those students will send a strong message to the rest of them, and they just disappear the ones who don't get the message.

Violence works, and when you have infinity bugmen you can squash as many as you need to to make sure the rest stay in line.

Yep. Looks like the bad guys are going to win this one.

CCP-critical HK-based print and online newspaper Apple Daily is in trouble:

Apple Daily to shut in days unless government agrees to last-ditch plea to unfreeze assets (a)

On Thursday, HK$18 million worth of assets held by three Next Digital companies were frozen, with the police warning seven local banks not to deal with the assets.

The freezing of the assets occurred as 500 police officers carried out a search at Next Digital’s headquarters in Tseung Kwan O and arrested five company executives on suspicion of colluding with foreign forces or external elements to endanger national security.

IIRC, Apple Daily was the company that made those wacky 3D animated skits of news stories that were quite popular on YouTube a few years ago, but I can't find any now by searching for them so maybe I'm getting my lines crossed.

In Canada right now we are reeling from the blowback in intergenerational trauma resulting from the forced residential school system and what the state did to systematically wipe out the language and identity of First Nations people right up until the 1990's. Many children died from the stresses brought about after being torn away from their families and being severely beaten by priests and nuns for speaking their mother tongues with one another. It depressed their immune systems in many cases and several children died in poor care being buried in mass graves next to the schools. Everyone should boycott the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, it is sickening when arrogant imperialists stomp on others peoples' right to exist and think they can tear families apart. You have every right in that case to defend yourself. In some ways I agree with having the right to own firearms for reasons like this no one should just be able to show up and take your children away from you and break up your communities.

Edit: The CCP doesn't realize it now but in the future this will come back to bite them like it has in Canada. Injustices don't just go away, the survivors will still be there no matter what to tell their truth and it will be a stain on China's legacy when societal problems burst forth from a people left with nothing else to lose. The difference with Canada is that we can look at our receipts and attempt to make things right in the democratic process and undo some of the damage. If anything the costs will be high for the state when those people turn to substance abuse and crime, there will be a massive amount of disunity and broken family structures which will have long lasting effects but people are still resilient and strong and they can survive and heal from the worst abuses no matter what.

Communism is based on the idea that everything you know about human nature and history don't matter and can be altered through sufficient force of government.

Horrifyingly so, in a paradoxical sense of what the ideology promises but what you get is its opposite in many if not all cases

It’s Beginning to Look Like Enemy Action​

By John Green

Dong Jingwei is a Chinese defector working with the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). He served as Vice Minister of State Security in the Chinese Ministry of Defense. Before defecting, he was responsible for the counterintelligence efforts in China. He was in a position to know about all things “espionage” in China and is perhaps the highest-level Chinese defector the U.S. has ever had. Even though the legacy media is playing it down, this is a big deal.
It speaks volumes that the man who knows the identity of all the Chinese spies in our country chose to defect to the DIA and only the DIA. Further, it’s reported that the DIA is not sharing the information it’s receiving with the FBI or CIA. Now why would that be?
Dong provided details of meetings between U.S. officials, Chinese spies, and Russian SVR agents. He also provided details about how the Chinese government gained access to CIA communications, which resulted in the deaths of dozens of CIA assets. Anonymous sources are also reporting that members of the federal law enforcement community (i.e. FBI) are “scared s**tless” about Dong’s information.
Is it possible that the FBI and CIA are hopelessly compromised? As we’d say in Minnesota -- you betcha!
Dong has allegedly provided the names of Chinese spies working or attending universities in the U.S. He claims that a third of Chinese students in this country are actually PLA assets. To validate his claims, Dong has provided financial records showing which businessmen and public officials have received money from the Chinese Government. Private persons receiving money may or may not be illegal depending on what they’re doing for it. If they’re selling protected technology, it’s illegal. If they’re influencing public opinion, it may not be illegal, but is still problematic. However, public officials receiving money is a huge deal -- it’s either bribery or espionage.
How much are businesses, educators, public officials, and opinion influencers beholden to China? It appears to be a disturbing number.

No, not buying that one. Maybe one in three hundred, but not one in three. What benefit does the PLA really gain by paying off a kid attending Bumfuck State University for an IT degree?

Maybe if we just limit the reckoning to the Ivy Leagues, but even then it strikes me as a needlessly high number.

Why limit yourself to subverting major institutions when you have enough manpower to subvert all of them? Putting cultural propaganda assets (because they're not spies in the sense that they're not there to steal secrets or track people) into every university they can reach means that they can astroturf pro-china views everywhere at once.

It’s getting very clear that the problems with the Chinese government have gotten so bad that it’s allowing any problems they do have to be exaggerated and any fight against them to be romanticized to an absurd degree.

What subversion is a mere college kid gonna do? They can spout phony COVID-19 stats and about how Taiwan and Tibet are righteous China clay all they want, but they're just another kid.

Infiltration of the faculty is a far more serious concern, and I'm sure that's happened to some extent, but that's not what we're talking about here.

Get enough students singing from the same hymn sheet and the faculty will cave, especially if they're using the language of social justice.

The point, though, is that the subversion is of the student body, the people who actually matter in a college or university setting. If you want to astroturf a movement, getting a mass of college kids on board is probably the best way to make it appear natural, especially if you can make it appear to be emerging from the mid-level institutions rather than just the elites.

Honestly, that actually makes a lot of sense, especially since there’s a lot of families that put a lot of pressure and weight on getting at least a bachelor’s degree, so the scheme will always be going on somewhere.

New laowhy86 video. I like his intro with a poem about the Emperor who burned books in ancient China and how this criticism is poignant of the CCP today. I generally don't like billionaires they step over a lot of bodies to get to where they are but so does the CCP in more ways than one.

Not directly related to the CCP but Nike lick the CCP boots. https://100percentfedup.com/ceo-of-...ke-is-a-brand-that-is-of-china-and-for-china/

https://web.archive.org/web/20210625232421/https://100percentfedup.com/ceo-of-america-based-company-nike-is-a-brand-that-is-of-china-and-for-china/

Nike remained silent over the criminal activity plaguing their stores in the name of “justice for George.” Instead of condemning the actions of the violent rioters, the over-priced sneaker industry looked the other way.

Nike, who has been on the front lines of “woke” corporations, was destroyed on social media for a recent statement about refusing to buy cotton from a region in Communist China where persecuted Uyghur Muslims are being used in forced labor camps to produce cotton.

“We are concerned about reports of forced labor in, and connected to, the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR)” the Nike statement read.​

On March 24, Chinese social media went after Nike for a statement the woke company made, where they said they were “concerned” about reports of forced labor in Xinjiang and that it does not use cotton from the region.

Reuters reported about the backlash- A popular Chinese actor Wang Yibo, terminated his contract as a representative for Nike in response to social media criticism over the company’s Xinjiang statement, his agency said on Weibo on Thursday.
It was unclear when Nike had put out the statement, which did not have a date on it. Nike did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of the state-run Global Times urged Western companies on Wednesday to be “highly cautious” and not to “suppress China’s Xinjiang” in a social media post.
“To do so would “undoubtedly arouse the anger of the Chinese public,” he added. He did not single out any companies.

Today, when asked about competition from Chinese brands, Nike’s Chief executive John Donahoe delivered a stunning response: “Nike is a brand that is of China and for China.” ​

According to the BBC – Mr. Donahoe was speaking during a call with Wall Street analysts about Nike’s latest earnings report.

The comments come after the sportswear giant was recently hit by a backlash over statements about Xinjiang.

As bamboo and silk smoke clears, the Emperor's achievements are for nothing;
The Hangu Pass and Yellow River vainly guard the domain of Qin Shi Huang.
Pits of ash not yet cold, the east of the Xiao Mountains in chaos;
Since Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, there is no reading of books.
