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. |

Is Hunter out of business? Will the Big Guy still get 10%? Will Fauci still get paid?

3 people have already been executed and this is a dupe thread I don't know how the kids post the twitters to here |

Do commies even do house arrest?
If there really is a leadership change they will want to make Xi retire and become a good commie in the traditional fashion |

If true and someone more hardline than Xi is in charge, expect shit to hit the fan, and soon.

I don't know how to fix it (it's not an arfcom-specific thing - it's kind of a cultural bug), but it depresses me a little. I just took a look at my Facebook feed. A good 75% of it, is people hitting the "share" button, or just copy/pasting a link to something they didn't create. Followed by angry comments, usually. This isn't unique to Arfcom. But I'm still bummed about it. |

I think if it is not true then China will become even more unstable, Mao Zedong revisited, the covid lockdowns have been brutal |

I'd say a coup, or ww3 is days away, he could be cleaning house of anyone not 100% complaint. Its not a good time for this to happen, troop build-up could be to protect from attacks.

More details. Not sure about the source...
ETA It's an Indian news agency, and has some very speculative articles... |

If true, it probably means war soon…. As hard as it is to imagine the Pooh being a relative moderate. I know nationalists weren’t happy about our delegations to Taiwan making him look like a bitch.

So what does this mean, is it a good or bad thing......? I mean, he is bad and so is the military...there both commies...

Let's say some of this is true. Xi is under house arrest.
Is this coup for the better or worse? IE is a more evil person stepping up? |
