Chinese politics

Here are some insights on Chinese politics from various episodes of the The Jordan Harbinger Show:

1. Wealth and Power:

   • Desmond Shum explains China's political landscape, emphasizing that political power supersedes wealth. Wealthy individuals often hide their wealth abroad due to fears of government seizure. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) does not permit senior officials to leave the country, comparing the CCP to a mafia where leaving is almost impossible 1.

2. Dystopian Control:

   • Laowhy86 discusses the erosions of economic freedoms in China, the use of QR code systems for movement control during the pandemic, and the longstanding cultural acceptance of suffering. This acceptance of hardships helps the CCP maintain tight control over the population 2.

3. Chinese Espionage:

   • Sam Cooper reveals tactics used by Chinese officials to gather intelligence and control diaspora communities. This includes leveraging family members in China to influence political speech abroad, using private investigators, and employing former cops to spy on Chinese expatriates 3.
