      Any mouthpiece that uses and throws around the term “CCP” is very difficult for me to not automatically disregard.

        It’s almost every day that they come out with some crazy prediction that the sisipee will collapse within days or the gods will smite them lol.

        Don’t remember the link but one of them posted a picture of a poverty stricken rural area claiming that the PRC was a failure in poverty alleviation… only for the replies to point out the very clearly American location based on the english street signs lmao.

                  I hope our honourable president Mr. Joe Biden sends you to Guantanamo Bay detention camp for speaking against the greatest human civilization on earth.

      The military vehicles might as well just be returning from the excercises near Taiwan, since they pulled stuff from all around the country and Beijing’s military district too probably. But noooooooo, of course that’s military coup. Somebody played too much Battlefield 4.

            They see Marvel and think it’s actually good cinema. From there it’s a small step to believing anything they’re told.

      And if anything, the PLA tends hardline Maoist and “conservative,” or so I’ve been told. So it’s likely that even this wouldn’t solve the west’s problems.

      Yes, if the PLA ever did a coup, more then likely it would be for the Chinese government being too passive in acting against the West.

    It’s absolute bullshit pulled out of the SUPPOSED cancellation of flights from Beijing. Except that… No flights were cancelled? Flightradar shows flights going in and out nice.

    What’s the point of it? It’s not going to fluster anyone in China where it’s obvious there’s nothing going on, and in a couple of days (if even that) it’ll be impossible not to see it’s BS. What are they trying to accomplish?

      Let’s start a rumor that “Maoist forces” within the US military have removed Joe Biden from office, and see if any international news sources run with it.

            The other track is to show the tweet to friends and, when they scoff at it, say it’s a cover-up. All contrary evidence is a cover-up and anybody in DC that denies it is lying to protect themselves and their family.

              Next step is to fabricate a story about the US government putting minorities in concentration camps, just like China is supposed to have done in Xinjiang…

              Oh, wait.

    Pure fabrication. There is no evidence that a coup or, regime change of any sort for that matter, has occurred.

    If the military seriously wants to depose Xi, they wouldn’t even need a second to do so. He eats in so many local restaurants, he has visited so many poor families, he walks among the people without bodyguards, and he attends yearly military parades; the opportunities to assassinate him, whether via bullet, bomb, staged accident, or poison, would be endless. They will not do so because they stand nothing to gain, and because they know that even if they did it anyway, they’d never get away with it.

    Some days ago I was in the capital of a big European Union nation and saw like 10 military jeeps on the road, I’m not spouting this coup bs because i was close to a military base, that claim is just baseless
