Apparently #china 's #ccp and #russia are both #threatening to #destroy #elonmusk 's #spacex #starlink on grounds of " #nationalsecurity " - despite tonnes of #foreign #satellites #flying over their #countries anyway: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. This isn't to mention they are both #developing #competitor #platforms ... Weird.
Hah, interesting that #china 's #ccp is #blocking #us #imports of #pork in a #food #crisis and given their low internal standards: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. I #suspect this could be to force people to #buy more #local #foods as #imports are likely to dry up very soon and the #chinese #currency too.
Due to #china 's #drought they are now looking to #seed #artificial #clouds to #induce #rain https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chin.. It has *never* been used in these conditions and it is really unclear what #sideeffects there may be. This could go very horribly wrong. It's also not clear what #pollution this causes. It would be #ironic if they save their #harvests but end up #poisoning it.

The irony here is that it's not nearly enough, things are far too gone. They don't seem to be even beginning to grasp the true scale of the almighty mess they are currently in.
Ouch, apparently #china 's #drought and therefore #water #crisis is reaching new levels of bad: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chin.. This will affect #food , #manufacturing , #energy and pretty much everything else.

Looks as if #china 's #ccp is #preparing to kick off, likely in #taiwan https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. These are warning signs that are difficult to overlook. #academics being kicked out, #manufacturing being #repurposed for #military , #preparation of #chinese #citizens regarding #taiwan and #escalation #language ... Then the '#economy nearing #collapse , they will need a #distraction .
Oh dear, it appears that #china 's #ccp is now driving straight into a #chinese #recession https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/china-.. I suspect they won't be able to pump enough #money into their #economy to overcome this issue, $230 #billion is a drop in the water for what they really need. Expect some new #tax #initiatives in #china soon...
Interesting, apparently #china 's #research #funds into #silicon #chips has actually been spent on #holidays #abroad , several #trillion of it: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. You won't see much of this in a #western #university though, these #funds are tightly checked. #staff still take #holidays when at a #conference , but out of their own pockets.
#china appears to be entering into a #recession despite the #ccp #advertising otherwise: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. This is after their #zero #covid #policy and #aggressive #foreign #policies on the #southchinasea , #taiwan , #tradewar , #russia and #ukraine , etc. Let's see what emerges in the 'new' #china - hopefully not #communism .

#china out there just #cloning away with their excellent #ethical and #medical #trackrecord ... https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/pet.. I'm sure nothing bad will come of this.
Looks like #china 's #ccp is not out of the woods yet, with #property #owners simply #refusing to pay their #mortgage in #protest https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/we-dec.. A #chinese #economic #crash is guaranteed without some massive unseen changes.
Another problem for #china 's #housing #property #market is the #shrinking #population https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/shri.. Less people means less #demand ...
Looks like the new #devil #johnleekachiu of #hongkong is even worse than the old one: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/hong-k.. It's as if #china 's #ccp hand selected him to push through their #agenda ...
