Reuters was unable to determine the impact of the secret operations or whether the administration of President Joe Biden has maintained the CIA program. Kate Waters, a spokesperson for the Biden administrationâs National Security Council, declined to comment on the programâs existence or whether it remains active. Two intelligence historians told Reuters that when the White House grants the CIA covert action authority, through an order known as a presidential finding, it often remains in place across administrations.
I know! Really! That nasty expansionist Taiwan pressing its territorial claims on its neighbours and building island fortresses on submerged island reefs. Absolute blight on the face of Asia.
Do you honestly think you are not? Like some voice of ideologically-sanitised criticism here to point out everyone else's internal contradictions and bias? srsly?
It doesn't fit prominent tribal dichotomies/narratives?

After the Revolutions of 1989 and the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, most of the world's communist governments were overthrown, and the Cold War ended. Nevertheless, anti-communism remains an important intellectual element of many contemporary political movements. Organized anti-communist movements remain in opposition to the People's Republic of China and other communist nations.
Ok, so if China and other communist states were overthrown / are no longer communist, what are you rooting for? And why bring it up when rgio was actually talking about the property debt crisis and aging demographic of China?
The epithet "communist" is so far removed from what Marx had in mind it has become absolutely meaningless. One-party rule, autocratic government, dictatorships or even just plain old imperialists are all terms that are way closer to political reality than "communist".

The point was that when it comes to China, implosions or collapses have been predicted (or supposed) regularly. Whether on the basis of ideology and/or economics (facts).
Almost, as I alluded to, as if there is a desire in play. At least you don't share this desire, however anti-communists, an actual common conspiracy (or rather ideology), do.

You are mistaking facts for desire. When post shit, do you read anything? I post about real estate, and your rebuttal is a 23-year-old book blaming the CCP.
China's failure would not be good for anyone, and your assumption I'm hoping for it is just conspiratorial, tribal BS.

Or so some people keep claiming again and again (they're commies after all and must fail). Maybe this is your lucky year.
