CCP's Third Plenum: China has no blueprint to escape economic slowdown and is trapped in Xi Jinping's vision
2024-08-17
[FirstPost] Xi’s handprint is all over the Third Plenum’s decisions. The economic slowdown? No change in course. National security concerns? Double down on control. Technology? A race to dominance. Is this a blueprint for a stronger China, or a nation trapped in Xi’s vision?

#8  Rumors say Putin is also having/had issues.
So If we have 3 superpower heads of state, brain farting at the same time.

Doesn't that Kinda make you wonder if there is a bigger plan in play?

Globalism Elites - think "Roller Ball" anyone?

#4   It seems that Xi may be brain dead and is still on life support

Seems fair. We have one, they have one.

#2  It's unverifiable, but what I could gleam from various China reports news sites (all located outside of China, except for a couple in Taiwan.

It seems that Xi may be brain dead and is still on life support, but his doctors are afraid to unhook him for fear that they may be charged with his 'murder'.
