Quote HistoryQuoted: Listening to him and Michael Yon at the height of the HK protests you’d have thought the Chinese control of HK was on its death bed. They went way past simply providing reliable on the ground news reports to open cheerleading. Hard to keep a impartial poker face when freedom is on the line but yeah, you have to maintain credibility. I was asked back in 2013 about Hong Kong’s future and I sadly had to respond “they’re fucked” |

My favorite part is that the tweet's only gotten more popular over the course of the day. The internet (Well, mostly irate Indian men) has effectively willed this into becoming a mass perceived truth, and until Xi makes a public appearance again, we're seeing a practical Schrodinger's cat scenario play out.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I agree…there is something big coming. This is all setting the stage for what is going to happen in the end times! Do you think right now is worse than say 1942 when the Nazis held most of Europe, North Africa, and had made a ways into Russia. The Japan had raped and pillaged across most of the east? A literal world at war, right after a decade of drought and financial depression…and today gives you that feeling? I still think Americans have a terrible perspective on history |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Isn't there an old saying "if you go against the king, do not fail." It seems we have our answer. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Hours slow on the info there bud... 3 people have already been executed and this is a dupe thread I don't know how the kids post the twitters to here from his link: "The main originator of the #China coup rumor is now saying that the rumor is not true. Now she adds that 3 senior anti-Xi officials were sentenced to death. We'll have to see if there are reliable sources that can validate those statements, but don't hold your breath." Isn't there an old saying "if you go against the king, do not fail." It seems we have our answer. "You come at the king, you best not miss." -Omar

Quote HistoryQuoted: I don't really have a solution to this, and I'm not suggesting one, but if I might opine for a moment: 1. Those "news" sources. Really? Really? 2. I'm a bit miffed that GD has basically turned into the angry comment section of other people's content, over the past several years. Seriously - most of the threads in GD these days are basically "Here's a link to some shit somebody else wrote and/or filmed. It makes me angry and/or anxious about things. How 'bout you? Discuss". It's sort of depressing. Anyway - back to your thread. Real conversations get shadowbanned. Chaff remains. |

Sadly, sources that lay out the facts and the theories from both sides are long gone. Partisan clickbait drives more revenue. Then the TCEI drives supporting the gov narrative over anything else. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I grow more convinced every day that I lacked an adequate appreciation for how much Rush Limbaugh contributed to a somewhat coherent "opposition" message when he was alive, even as the media environments was going nuts. His death was like the scene in Loki where they killed "He Who Remains" and the timelines started splitting erratically. Agree, Rush and Breitbart |

If it had to guess what's really happening is that Xi is consolidating power and what has been bouncing around right wing clickbait media is a combination of wishful thinking from Falun Gong cultists and deliberate disinformation.
