The end of the Soviet Union was the best possible outcome for a dictatorship. In the case of mainland China, such an end would likely be catastrophic, resulting in a bloody conflict, though this seems unlikely in the near future due to the extreme tolerance of the Chinese people. Over the next decade, the leadership will likely eliminate the middle class, adopt political policies increasingly similar to North Korea, and implement a fully planned economy, 崩而不溃 (collapse without falling apart).
I'm a big fan of Johnny Harris but as someone who has worked in logistics and currently in engineering he said a lot of things that struck me as uninformed and alarmist in this series. I remember being bothered by it when it came out and i'm glad you articulated a lot of the points that were odd.
You need to make this video more persuasive and informative instead of merely standing there telling you're a trustful authority. This is RU-vid, not NEWS station. 我覺得你的論點很合理，也指出不少其他的威脅，但是面對反方意見，我覺得你做一個影片口述回覆有點不充分，做為一個影片創作者，你可能要多做一些相關的研究支持論點，然後將現在這個影片導流到那邊去，用右上角的資訊卡或下面的資訊欄和置頂留言。 如果沒有做到這些，很難相信所謂的計畫確實存在，只會讓人覺得人們過於安逸於和平的現狀，沒有過多的準備。甚至認為國防政策的變動完全是為了鞏固某政黨的立場。
⭕️ China wants to unify Taiwan. If diplomatic relations are not ready and a war is launched but Taiwan cannot be immediately recovered, the result will be Taiwan's independence and recognition by the world's major democracies.
I love you Topher, but you are way out of your element here. Stick to talking about Taiwan, unless you decide to go to China, spend a few years there, go to various provinces from Xinjiang to Tibet and down the east coast, actually get to know the people there, know how deeply involved the Party is with the people there, perhaps you'll think twice before making uninformed statements like the CCP will lose power in 2 years.
拍謝 Topher! there are too many fake and unreal videos in internet especially those with massive views. If people could take some time to understand the real situation, they would know Taiwan is not the Taiwan they imagine
Think about WuHan virus, same thing happen and no one care. Even WTO can't track the original source and already die so many people. But everyone know where virus come from...
