Les manifs ds les grandes villes et les #réseauxsociaux qui s'agitent ? Pas de soucis, #XiJinping a une solution : les escorts. Le @washingtonpost rapporte que Pékin a "réactivé" ce we des faux comptes #Twitter chinois pour noyer la plateforme. 1/3

2/3 des comptes avec des "liens pour des services d'escorts" couplés au nom des villes concernées par les manifs. Résultat : les tweets relayant la fronde sur place ont été rapidement ensevelis par ces milliers de spams "pour adultes".
#Chine #reseauxsociaux

3/3 Et, hasard calendrier, #XiJingping est aidé par #ElonMusk car toute l'équipe bossant sur "l'influence chinoise" au sein du réseau social a "démissionné" depuis la reprise de #Twitter.

Depuis #Tiananmen (1989) la Chine avait choisi le renoncement aux libertés politiques contre la garantie du devt éco. Et ce fut "gagnant" : en 25 ans, le PIB/ habitant a été x par 9 avec 745M pers sortis de la pauvreté 1/4

2/4 Sauf que c’est terminé : la #Chine va connaître en 2022 sa croissance la + faible depuis 50 ans, les 50% les plus pauvres possèdent aujourd’hui 3x moins de la richesse chinoise qu’il y a 30 ans. Sans aucune compensation.

#Chine Alors que les cas de #Covid atteignent le niveau le + haut jamais enregistré (env 40 000 nvx cas/jour), la banque Nomura estime que près d’1/3 de la pop chinoise (et autant de son PIB) subit au une forme plus ou moins stricte de confinement. 1/4
@AnneTestuzComm @business

Ce qui pourrait se jouer est la présidence même de #XiJinping.
Le #ZéroCovid est sa « fierté » en août il se vantait d’avoir obtenu "les meilleurs résultats du monde" face à l’épidémie, et c’est à présent le centre de son dispositif politique. 2/4

Lors du Congrès du PCC « consacrant » sa longévité, #XiJinping a choisi comme n°2 du régime l’homme qui a organisé le confinement (strictissime) de Shanghaï. L’enjeu Covid pour Xi va un peu au-delà d’une simple politique sanitaire. 3/4

I've been studying various aspects of #protest & contentious #politics in #China for 25 years.

What's happening now is novel, interesting, & potentially quite important. But we need to be careful about drawing conclusions or making predictions. A🧵:
1/22
@CamGeopolitics @NCUSCR

Since 1989, we've seen 5 main strands/repertoires of contention in China:

1) labour protest
2) rural protest
3) student protest
4) urban governance protest
5) systematic political dissent

Each of these has usually been disaggregated locally and separated from the others.

2/22

Labour politics has seen millions of laid-off (xiagang) SOE workers take to the streets, as well as many hundreds of thousands of their counterparts among migrant workers in export-processing manufacturing industries.

Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! The matters of the #Russian President #Putin in the foreign policy space have not been working out lately. For several weeks, Putin has been asking to coordinate a phone conversation with the President of #China #XiJingping.
1/12

#Putin has been receiving exclusively negative responses. The #Chinese side sees no opportunity for meaningful dialogue and suggests asking for a phone conversation with President #XiJinping after the New Year.
2/12

The possibility of a theoretical visit of the #Chinese leader to #Russia is being considered in the fall of 2023. However, the Chinese side has set a number of conditions for the Russian colleagues under which such a prospect can be realized.

New: The Biden-Xi meeting shows that U.S.-China relations will get worse, not better washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/… by me @PostOpinions

Despite Biden’s oft-repeated belief that “all foreign policy is personal,” there was no substantive progress made in the 3½-hour confab. That’s because the problems in the U.S.-China relationship are structural, not personal.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…

Predictably, much of Washington praised this supposed thaw...

The problem with this thinking is that it ignores Beijing’s worsening behavior and the fact that Xi wasn’t willing to negotiate on any of the contentious issues.

Is .@FTX_Official a preview of US economy and dollar?

.@SBF_FTX did what the .@WhiteHouse does and look.

Will #BRICS cause liquidity crunch in #USA ?

#Putin #XiJingping & others will sell their #dollars & buy BRICS currency.

Could we see real hyperinflation?

#Russia #China

My #cryptocurrecy friends know that when you remove liquidity, the #cryptocrash

The #USD about to have $34B of liquidity pulled.

This does not include what they sell to buy #BRICS $.

BRICS need liquidity too. #Crypto is programmed to do what money does.

What will USD do...

Like #Crypto & the #cryptocrash the USD will drop in value when liquidity is pulled or their is a liquidity crunch. Who else provides liquidity for the USD?

What if they all work together to dump USD & buy BRICS?

Just how much liquidity do they own?

Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! As of yesterday evening, #Russian President Vladimir #Putin's visit to the #G20BaliSummit was under discussion. Until recently, Putin considered it necessary to be personally present at the summit.
1/10

Going to an event of this caliber is meant to demonstrate to elites inside #Russia and foreign doubters that #Putin is active despite problems, confident of victory, acceptable as a negotiating partner for some world leaders (not a total outcast), and...
2/10

capable of influencing and supporting in solving problems of hunger and humanitarian missions for the poorest countries. And just to be accepted in society by 20 leaders of world powers is already raising #Putin's trampled authority a little higher than the plinth.

When Germany was leaving the UNSC presidency, the Chinese ambassador to the UN whispered "good riddance" to the German Ambassador to the UN - that is the Mutual Respect CPC shows for (believed) partners.

For over two decades CPC stole American & European technology & Intellectual properties - where is the common ground?

China hasn't opened its market for global economies but wants to export everything to everyone - where is common ground?

CPC targeted Australia, Lithuania, Czech, Mozambique, Kenya, Srilanka & many others with trade terrorism - where is the common ground?

Chinese Maritime militias kill philipinos instead of CPC finding middle grounds - how to shelve differences?

@Bundeskanzler

🧵#NovemberGeopolitics
At time when #EU & #Transatlantic unity are key, @Bundeskanzler visit to Beijing — Moscow’s “no limits” friend — is bad for both. 🇩🇪is not only Europe’s biggest econ it’s also #G7 chair. A solo visit, (even a duo w/ @EmmanuelMacron), sends wrong signal 1/5

The fact that visit is happening a few short weeks after #XiJingping secured third mandate to lead China🇨🇳 under an almost single-man rule is also the wrong message. Some say pragmatism, I say short sigthedness & narrow self-interest. In fact, meeting at margins of #G20 2/5

@eucopresident

in 🇮🇩 would be the right
format. This would be even more pragmatic because: 1) it would show force & unity at challenging moment for #EU-#China relations, with a meeting w/ Xi bringing other #EU countries present 🇫🇷🇮🇹(🇪🇸🇳🇱 are invited) + 🇪🇺 @eucopresident & @vonderleyen. 3/5

Interesting observation on governments and media around the world 🌎

Western media has been incredible negative about #XiJingping continuing as China’s president, most articles seem shocked that Ci has consolidated power and will rule China for the foreseeable future

But anyone who understands China knew this was going to happen. It’s not a shock and this plan has been in motion since 2018 when China removed term limits for the president. However look at what’s happening in UK and US governments:

The UK government has been in shambles…it’s embarrassing for a PM to resign after just 45 days in office, it shows a major flaw in l Western style democracies, electing people with little merit or experience. What about USA?

Latest for @dwnews: "This outcome means in the next five years, there will not only be a lack of a checks-and-balances mechanism in the party, but it will also become much more difficult for different opinions to emerge," said Hsin-Hsien Wang. #XiJingping dw.com/en/chinas-xi-s…

He told DW that Xi's reappointment and his picks for the Politburo shows that "political loyalty is very important."

News coming in of #protests in #China against #XiJingping . Anger over #zeroCOVID, harsh lockdowns, #Henan bank crisis & more culminating into tensions 3 days before #PartyCongress. Unlike #XiCoup news, protests intel appears legit. However, I'm unsure if "protest" is right word

Images coming out mostly show non-group action; rogue disgruntled citizens taking banners up appears more likely. This image, from what I confirmed used image search, is from Beijing's 3rd Ring Road in Haidian. People appear to be going about their day normally.

The slogan is reactionary & most images circulated are of this one banner in Haidian, Beijing only. However, it will be investigated thoroughly so close to Congress, & police patrol can be expected to be amped up even more (which anyway has been high in the city in prep for NPC)
