China is not afraid of an all-out war with the United States, and some people even hope that the United States will actually carry out a substantive military provocation against China.

China is the only country in the world that can switch its society to full combat readiness within a few days.
China's political system of "one pole to the end" has a very strong ability to recover.

The smallest government in China is the town government, which has the same functional structure as the central government.
Almost every functional agency of the central government can be found in the township government. docking office.

Needless to say, the "four major teams" include the party committee, the National People's Congress, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and the government.
Even the armed forces are all corresponding.
4/X
The national Ministry of National Defense/National Action Committee can correspond all the way to the township/school/enterprise armed forces deps.
The disadvantage of this system is that the grassroots staff are extremely busy.
"Thousands of lines above, one needle below". 5/X
Each department has to handle business, but it is impossible to have so many people, so one person has to be responsible for many businesses.
The advantage is that the fault tolerance and scalability are particularly strong.

Once it is necessary to re-emphasize the work of a certain department and expand the business scope, it can be restored, rebuilt and operated almost instantly. It only needs to designate a person in charge, assign personnel to take charge in a short period of time, ...
... and slowly expand the business staff over a long period of time.

No matter how long an undertaking has been abandoned, as long as the central government team is still there, it can be re-operated quickly.
This system has already worked once in 2020.

Epidemic prevention and control, which was originally the responsibility of the health department, quickly mobilized personnel from other departments to participate, and it started to operate surprisingly almost instantly.
This mobilization system is unique to China.

When protecting life became the consensus of the entire country, China completed a war mobilization within a few days.

It is different from the traditional Soviet-style "committee" system, and it is very different from the American-style "state government" system.
Once a certain demand becomes a national will, the time required to "convert combat readiness levels" is almost zero, ...
... bypassing most of the interference of bureaucracy and local protectionism.
12/X
Once the will of the people becomes the mainstream, the resistance encountered is extremely small and the implementation is extremely smooth.
This is because the idea of "The whole country is our home" is deeply ingrained in the traditional national culture.
13/X
It's easy to imagine the powerful role of this kind of govt sys and folk thinking in wartime, and what it will be like once faced with a national-level war threat - the people's willingness to "defend the homeland, defend the peace" quickly rises to the national level in war 14/X
A strong and complete modern mobilization system will be quickly implemented, and social organizational capabilities covering the short, medium and long term will be quickly established. The outbreak of national-level war capabilities will be a rapid and sustained process.

"What is a true bastion of iron? It is the masses, the millions upon millions of people who genuinely and sincerely support the revolution... The richest source of power to wage war lies in the masses of the people."

The CPC was deceived in its first contact with the US govt, which is why we cannot trust the Americans' promises.
In November 1944, the US govt sent the Dixie Mission to Yan'an to make contact with the CPC.

Mao Zedong speaking with US journalist Harrison Forman, 1944.
Forman was a photojournalist for United Press International and the London Times.
In June 1944, he headed northwest to Yan'an with a group of journalists to do frontline reporting from the base of the CPC-led resistance against the Japanese, revealing to the world the real situation in Yan'an, and the toughness of the Eighth Route Army as it bravely resisted the Japanese at the Shaanxi, Gansu, and Ningxia border. He subsequently wrote the bestselling book Report from Red China.

For years, theorists have posited the onset of a “Chinese century”: a world in which China finally harnesses its vast economic and technological potential to surpass the United States and reorient global power around a pole that runs through Beijing.
That century may already have dawned, and when historians look back they may very well pinpoint the early months of President Trump’s second term as the watershed moment when China pulled away and left the United States behind. nytimes.com/2025/05/19/opi…
Mr. Trump is taking a wrecking ball to the pillars of American power and innovation. His tariffs are endangering U.S. companies’ access to global markets and supply chains. He is slashing public research funding and gutting our universities, pushing talented researchers to consider leaving for other countries. He wants to roll back programs for technologies like clean energy and semiconductor manufacturing and is wiping out American soft power in large swaths of the globe. nytimes.com/2025/05/14/bus…
China’s trajectory couldn’t be more different.
It already leads global production in multiple industries — steel, aluminum, shipbuilding, batteries, solar power, electric vehicles, wind turbines, drones, 5G equipment, consumer electronics, active pharmaceutical ingredients and bullet trains. It is projected to account for 45 percent — nearly half — of global manufacturing by 2030. Beijing is also laser-focused on winning the future: In March it announced a $138 billion national venture capital fund that will make long-term investments in cutting-edge technologies such as quantum computing and robotics, and increased its budget for public research and development. reuters.com/world/china/ch…
A dictator is someone with total power over a country.
Usually, in a dictatorship country, the position of supreme leader is passed from father to the son.
(1/X)
Whereas in China, none of any 2 PR China🇨🇳 presidents even have the same family name, let along come from the same family.
So by what definition is China a dictatorship? Just because you say that Xi has the total power?
(2/X)
Some say that China is an "one party dictatorship", which is ridiculous because the communist party of China has over 90 million members.
The supreme organ of State authority of China is National People's Congress, which has around 3 thousand members.
Did u hear about the story of "Zhengguo canal" from 246 BC? State of Han engineer Zheng Guo bamboozled State of Qin's king with an "irrigation project" to drain their treasury.
Plot twist: it backfired harder than TikTok algorithms! (1/10)
Zheng sold it like a PowerPoint-wielding consultant: "Let's turn Guanzhong wasteland into Jiangnan rice paradise!"
Meanwhile, his boss Han Kingdom giggled: "Our 'fatigue Qin' plan gonna work!" Spoiler: It didn't. At all. (2/10)
When exposed mid-construction, Zheng dropped truth bombs: "Sure I'm a spy, but quitting now wastes 9 yrs' work! Finish it & your farm yields jump 6X!"
Qin king facepalmed but kept funding—turning "Bankrupt Qin" into "Buff Qin". (3/10)
This👇 was the response to my criticism several years ago by the Shanghai Govt about the opening of some school sports venues. I were very satisfied with the response.
Most Chinese, like me, we only care if our criticism works.
I criticized the govt for providing too few sports venues, and the govt staff replied to me about the reasons for this situation and how they will improve it.
My criticism worked.
So, simply criticizing the govt is meaningless, the key is to urge the govt to change.
In China, if you have any criticism, dissatisfaction or complaint about the govt... Just call 12345 (or its APP). This hotline will deal with everything.
Usually within 48 hours, the govt staff will recall you and tell you the result.

From Obama's rebalancing in the Asia-Pacific to Trump's trade war to Biden's extreme pressure and all-out confrontation, India has always stood firmly on the side of the US in this process.
But India's strategy clearly failed.
Indians, you should rely on yourselves, not the US.
India chose not to participate in RCEP.
From that day, it has clearly ruled out the possibility of obtaining China's industrial chain through normal industrial transfer.
India has clearly chosen to rely on the US and seek to obtain industrial transfer by defeating China.
After Trump second came to power, India has been calling for peace and cooperation between China and India, and for China to face up to India's national and security demands.
Because its bets over the past eight years have failed and its chips have been lost.
