Both propped up by oligarchs, their MICs and godless authorities who take from the working class to fund endless projects in other lands…

Radio Free Asia is a U.S. government funded network.

Not saying they are lying, but it is important to know the source.

My uneducated guess - there is probably some degree of truth to it. But also, Radio Free Asia is trying to earn the Administration's good graces in a funding battle.

China is already in a deflationary economy locally. When those big exporters start dropping product on the local market for a "song", the local suppliers will start going belly up as well.

More likely would be to get millions permanently removed from the premises very quietly

You know the CCP "disappears" people for merely filming with their phones in public, right? Maybe you don't.

They are not like us, where everyone gets to film everything any time they want. That shite is legally verboten over there.

That’s cute.

Tell that to the 1,417 Americans charged re: January 6th, 2021.

This statement in itself raises doubt in my mind that furious Chinese workers are protesting and demanding back pay. I mean seriously, the armed military would start up firing lines if workers had the audacity to rebel.

I believe something erupted. Then quickly was calmed by "patriotic chineese".

The CCP would never allow protests to erupt from workers either.

You cannot stop spontaneous actions but you can end them quickly.

Hmmm…the same CCP that “disappears” people in turn allows massive protests? Okay, maybe think it out before posting a smart arse response.
