People's Republic of China

From Heterodontosaurus Balls

“”What can Emperor Qin Shi Huang brag about? He only killed 460 Confucian scholars, but we killed 46,000 intellectuals. There are people who accuse us of practicing dictatorship like Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and we admit to it all. It fits the reality. It is a pity that they did not give us enough credit, so we need to add to it.
— Mao Zedong

The People's Republic of China (PRC), more commonly known by foreigners as China is a democidal, sadistic, and communist country located in Asia. He is known to like to capture and torture dissidents, starve peasants and take away their crops, steal money from the people, and kill just about everyone, even his own party officials. He shows a total disregard for basic human rights.

The PRC systematically suppresses dissent through torture, indoctrination camps, and forced disappearances. He is notorious for his “re-education” campaigns, where citizens are brainwashed into blind loyalty and are made into killing tools of the regime or face dire consequences. His disregard for individual lives is infamous, willing to crush any opposition to maintain the Party’s reign, and stops at nothing. Public humiliation and beating, ripping babies apart, massacres, forced organ harvesting, the PRC has done it all. Throughout his history, PRC has killed 40-80 million Chinese people by democide.

A common misconception among most people is that China is the PRC. While China represents a divine land with 5000 years of rich culture, the PRC is the entity that destroyed it, slaughtered its people like animals, degenerated the morals of the people that is left, and proclaimed itself as such: "Without the Communist Party, there would be no China".

Any softness towards the PRC by neighboring countries will be perceived as weakness and reliance by him, which will in turn make the PRC starting to pressure the said country with economy and military. PR China also have a big pollution problem.

PRC calls for the apologies from Japan for the war crimes they committed in WWII. However, the PRC has yet to apologize for his crimes against the Chinese people that are still being conducted to this day.

历史 (History)

There are four major periods (or "power cores") classified from the history of the PRC, based on the rule and influence of certain factions of the communist party. These are as follows:

Note that Hu Jintao's reign is classified within the Jiangist Era, as he is very similar and have great influence from Jiang Zemin.

毛泽东时代 (Maoist Era)

See Also: Maoism

After beating the Republic of China to Taiwan by exploiting their weakness after WWII (with the army that the CCP shamelessly expanded instead of fighting the Japan), the PRC was proclaimed. The dictator, Mao Zedong, promised the people freedoms of person, thought, speech, assembly publication, association, religion, and equal rights for women, rent reduction, land distribution, and much more, which were totally kept. The people were happy, but they could have never seen what horrors awaits them under Mao’s dictatorship.

The Land Reform Campaign was first, and the PRC labeled 20 million people living in rural areas as enemies of the common people, and these people lost all of their rights, and were beaten, humiliated, and killed. Many were driven to suicide. In the end, ten to twenty thousand of these landlords died due to this. The landless peasants got their land, but it would not last. PRC pushed the peasants towards Socialism, shaming on those who are not on board. Mao also killed a lot of other people, mostly ordinary people labeled and perceived as “ideological enemies” and critics of the Party across the 1950s, in his idiotic campaigns of “Campaign to Suppress Counterrevolutionaries”, “Three-Anti Campaign”, “Five-Anti Campaign”, “Hundred Flowers Campaign” and the “Anti-Rightist Campaign”. Many intellectuals and traditionalists (like elders) were slaughtered by democide. And to add to that, Mao decided to start another, disastrous campaign: The Great Leap Forward.

On an unrelated note, the PRC invaded and annexed (as he calls it, “liberated”) the de-facto independent Tibet in 1950, resulting in a treaty that integrated Tibet into communist territory in 1951.

PRC decided to intervene in the Korean War in October 1950, to save North Korea from total destruction. And he had another motive in entering the war: PRC realized the war is a great excuse to rid his army of 1.7 million “politically unstable” soldiers, who defected from the Kuomintang during the Chinese Civil War.

PRC also pushed for simplification of Chinese characters in the 1950s, to boost literacy, but stripping the Chinese characters of their meaning in the process. This was also a way to symbolically cut ties with traditional culture and the "scholarly elite" of pre-communist China. During the Mao era, the artwork field also suffered a significant propaganda onslaught. Traditional Chinese dancing and music were hijacked with hatred, guns, and communist phrases, promoting a revolutionary zeal. Artists who retained their traditional art forms were purged.

The Great Leap Forward (1958-1962) was more like a great leap backwards. PRC saw the great powers all produce lots of steel, so he wants to produce them, too. But, instead of taking the necessary steps and preparations, he forced everyone to make a furnace in their home and burn all their belongings to keep a fire going, for steel production. In the end, the steel was bad and couldn’t even be used. PRC also thought the sparrows were eating his crops, so he killed them all. This only allowed the locusts to thrive, with no predators. The provincial governors of China all wanted to please Mao, so they reported the grain production higher than reality. This led to the government raiding homes and taking every last bit of food to meet their exaggerated reports. All these factors added up to the worst famine in Chinese history, the Great Chinese Famine. 1959 is the year that this horrible man-made famine started. Peasants starved, and were forced into cannibalism. PRC claims the famine was caused by natural disasters, but we all know that is not true. 30-60 million people died because of this, bring the death toll of the bandit party upwards to the top of the globe.

In 1959, Marshal Peng Dehuai, China's defense minister at the time, got purged by Mao. Why? Because he resisted Mao's Cult of Personality. So obviously, he lost the power struggle. But this sparked a round of massive purges in the military.

India was non-aligned, still he treated PRC with generosity. Almost immediately after the PRC was founded, in 1950, India recognized the PRC as true China. To help PRC break out of his diplomatic isolation after the Korean War, India signed a friendship treaty with PRC, and as a part of that treaty India recognizes Tibet as sovereign Chinese territory. But PRC started destroying Tibetan culture which disgusts the Indians as they have the same origin. PRC suggested to do a swap in land recognition, he proposed that India will recognize Chinese sovereignty over Aksai Chin and PRC will recognize Indian sovereignty over Arunachal Pradesh. But India was angry and didn't want to hear any of it. During the Cuban missile crisis, India's ally Russia was too busy so PRC launched the 1960 Sino-Indian War and took over Aksai Chin. India didn't have any roads in Aksai Chin but PRC does, and India was very angry and couldn't believe that PRC would do this to him after all the kindness he showed to the communist regime. India and PRC have been enemies ever since.

After the Famine, Mao wanted to reignite the revolutionary and destructive spirit of his previous campaigns. So he started the biggest one yet in 1966, the Cultural Revolution. A group of brainwashed students, often referred to as "wolf cubs" and officially known as the Chinese Red Guards, brutally beat up and killed their own parents and teachers, often in public. They felt no shame because they were brainwashed to the core. Thousands of artifacts were lost, because the Red Guards destroyed them for being traditional and old. Neighbors and families turned on each other. This bloody campaign only ended when Mao died in 1976.

In the 1970s, the relationship between the communist China and the revisionist USSR further soured as part of the Sino-Soviet split. Under Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, the USA also abandoned his hardline anti-communist doctrine in favor of pragmatism and realpolitik, so the US worked with PRC to deter their common enemy - the USSR. Therefore, the ping-pong diplomacy initiative under Zhou Enlai exchanged ping-pong players from both countries, and eventually led to the US and PRC establishing relations, and the US's followers, which were the western, NATO-aligned countries followed suit, and in 1979 the United States and allies renounced their recognition of Taiwan under the Kuomintang.

邓小平时代 (Dengist Era)

China’s economy got wrecked so much by Mao that the new dictator, Deng Xiaoping, had to implement capitalist reforms to save his regime from total collapse. So the Communist Party ditched Communism… Well, just the economic parts. The regime still kept the heart of communism: mass surveillance, labor camps, brainwashing, corruption, and of course: lots and lots of killing.

During this time, China saw the total destruction of all Chinese traditional culture was too extreme. Why would you destroy it when you can rewrite it to suit your agenda, tie it as part of the regime, and use it to exert influence worldwide?

In 1979, the "One Child Policy" was implemented to "control the population". Newborns were aborted if they had an older sibling. This policy led to many young girls being killed, since many families want a boy over a girl. This also led to the over-spoiling of children, growing them up to be the scums of society.

In 1979 PRC also launched an invasion of Vietnam in response to Viet's invasion and occupation of Polpotist Cambodia. The invasion failed and the status quo remained, but the casualties of the Chinese were of devastating levels which were on par with the defeats during the Century of Humiliation. It seems like the Chinese military has not had any training since the Korean War because they were all too busy doing class struggles and studying Mao Zedong Thought.

Since the 1980s, PRC used smart trade practices and low-wage labor to compete with other countries. International patents are often ignored to make cheap knockoff products. However, more and more Chinese factories are popping up in southeast Asia and other poor countries, pissing off USA. And from the 1980s to the end of the 1990s, desertification in China increased from a little over 1,000 to 2,460 square kilometers (386 to 950 square miles).

The 1980s were the most liberal and promising era in the history of Communist China. However, one event would abruptly end this illusion.

In 1989, many students were unhappy with the regime. So, thousands of students took to Tiananmen Square on June 4th 1989 and peacefully demonstrated and protested for democracy. Instead of peacefully resolving the issue like PRC said he would, Deng Xiaoping ordered the massacre of the protestors, and sent the military in to shoot with guns and crush with tanks. Estimates of the death toll vary from several hundred to several thousand, with thousands more wounded. This event became the most sensitive, censored and controversial topic in communist China, which led many to ridicule it in the West to show how repressive the PRC is. Deng's "reform and opening up" policy greatly advanced the circulation of information which made it possible for many foreign reporters to witness the Massacre.

People say that the CCP made their lives so much better, and the reforms by Deng in the 1970s-80s are what they're talking about. These reforms might have improved the lives of people above the poverty line (especially rich people), but it also allowed many degenerate things in. Plus, everyone’s lives would have improved decades ago if the Kuomintang was in charge, just look at Taiwan now, a successful state, no pollution, advanced (and not fake) technologies, and happy people.

江泽民时代 (Jiangist Era)

The rotten toad Jiang Zemin became the new dictator in 1989 after he showed his cruelty and brutality in the Tiananmen Massacre. Jiang Zemin was the one who profited the most out of it. He was more degenerate then the others, let drugs and prostitution grow, and was very, VERY corrupt. Still nobody knows how much unjust money he made, it’s estimated to possibly be in the billions.

In the 1990s, the PRC began restoring the cultural relics destroyed in the Cultural Revolution for purposes of tourism. But they never restored the actual values and ethics behind such culture that was also systematically destroyed.

The collapse of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in 1991 shook and scared the entire CCP government and reminded them to never abandon the ideological front in pursuit of economic growth and openness.

In 1997, Hong Kong got handed over by Britain. In 1998, China made a Great Firewall so they can control all media, isolating the Chinese people from the worldwide web and preventing them from getting ideas and knowing certain things.

In 1998, after the US attacked al-Qaeda bases with cruise missiles, the Chinese regime allegedly paid bin Laden $10 million for any unexploded missiles, presumably to steal the technology.

Jiang Tze-Min got jealous for the popularity Falun Gong gained during the "Qigong Boom", so in 1999 he set out a campaign to "eradicate it in three months". The propaganda machine got cranking like it never has before, and all TV stations worldwide started showing fake news that are aimed at destroying Falun Gong’s reputation. The practitioners of Falun Gong were, and still are, being kidnapped from their homes, tortured, assaulted and organ harvested. While Jiang Zemin started the persecution out of pure jealousy, there is another reason why the PRC needs to eliminate Falun Gong. Falun Gong teaches about spirituality and morals outside of just materialism, something the CCP hates, as the CCP is built on the destruction of traditional values and human struggle. It cannot handle another big movement that questions and causes disbelief in the CCP, especially right after the Tiananmen Massacre.

Through the persecution of Falun Gong, Jiang Zemin was able to hold absolute control over the media, press, and more. And also through the persecution, mass surveillance was established. Homosexuality was decriminalized.

The Jiangist Era was also an era of big state-controlled corporations. The CCP gave Chinese corporations billions of dollars in loans to buy out established western companies. The purpose is to get the oligarchs of the PRC filthy rich and gain influence in foreign countries. Jiang himself has an estimated wealth of at least billions. Chinese corporations coordinate with the CCP on such schemes. The CCP controls domestic companies because they need the CCP's approval to stay in business.

Also in 1999, Jiang Zemin signed over 1 million acres of land to Russia. This land was originally scheduled to return to China after being unrightfully taken from the Qing Dynasty. The same year Macau was handed over from Portugal.

PRC's manufacturing exploding after joining the World Trade Organization in 2001 as sanctions against him dropped and he got better access to the global market. Because PRC was able to make stuff more cheaply than other countries, consumers from the world benefited from the lower prices of Chinese imports. But, countries also lost tons of manufacturing jobs to China, the US alone lost 2 million jobs between 1999 and 2011 because of this.

In 2002, Jiang "officially" handed power to Hu Jintao. But Jiang still had vast influence and remained in control over the military.

The per capita arable land in China decreased from about 2 mu (1 mu equals approximately 0.16 acres) in 1980 to 1.43 mu in 2003. The widespread upsurge of land enclosure for development has led China to lose 100 million mu of arable land in just a few years' time. However, only 43 percent of the confiscated land is actually used. Desertification was also an issue, plus air and water pollution, deforestation, and soil degradation. Each of these reached alarming levels. The Three Gorges Dam project, though a massive engineering feat, displaced over a million people and had huge ecological consequences.

China hosted the 2008 Olympic Games. This was in reality an "olive branch" given by Western countries to encourage China to improve his human rights, but the CCP instead used the games to enhance his claims to legitimacy and to provide a pretext for suppressing the Chinese people.

习近平时代 (Xiist Era)

Jiang Zemin lost his power struggle to Xi Jinping in 2013, who isn’t any better and also loves to violate human rights. But, he did start purging the government and army to try to rid it of the corruption and cronies from the Jiang era, but it wasn’t really useful as corruption was widespread beyond repair by that point.

In 2014, PRC began persecuting Uyghurs and putting them in concentration camps to “re-educate” them, and are treated with forced labor. This gained widespread internet attention.

One-Child Policy was removed in 2015. Also in 2015 the air pollution levels in Beijing were so intense, PRC received his first ever red alert.

The Belt and Road Initiative was started by Xi in 2013 to exert influence under the name of “helping” and “support”. The CCP wants project to finish in 2049, exactly 100 years after the formation of the People's Republic.

The PRC would have you want to believe that his “cooperation” with the African nations in his new “Belt and Road Initiative” are good and share a bright future. The truth is, PRC’s work there is riddled with corruption. And there’s also the shoddy infrastructure that the PRC helped build, like Kenya’s railway to nowhere and a crumbling metro in Ethiopia. The Chinese also treats the African workers very badly, and are illegally fishing off of African coasts, hurting local communities. Cheap Chinese products made from forced labor dominates the African market. And to top it all off, PRC started funding African terrorist groups, in exchange for rosewood.

The PRC also gave billions of dollars in "loans" to poor countries in mainly Africa and Latin America (a few in Asia). PRC says that the poor countries can repay whenever they like, knowing they can never repay such giant loans. This creates a de-facto debt trap. His loans have risen from almost nothing in 2000 to more than $700 billion in 2019.

In late 2019, a deadly virus broke out of a lab in Wuhan, China. In its early phase, scientists tried to warn the public, but the Chinese government censored the warnings to try to make everything look perfect. Due to the censorship by the CCP, nobody knew what it was or that it’s highly contagious until it was too late, and the virus went global, killing millions. Still, the CCP tried to blame it on USA, saying it was because of an American ship that carried the virus to China. This virus is known as COVID-19.

The Chinese government then implemented the "Zero-COVID Policy" and went on full lockdown mode because of this virus they caused, travel was impossible within China and people were trapped in their homes, even when there is a fire. People can’t go out and buy food and other necessities, many starved in their homes and died. Some people who were on their way homes from another place got stuck on roads because the administrative system refuses to let them in. At the height of the COVID pandemic, the crematoriums were filled to the brim with people trying to cremate their dead relatives. As the rest of the world dropped their COVID policies as the pandemic seemed to fade away, Xi vowed to stick to the strategy. But the new variants of the COVID which infected more but killed less required a different strategy, and since Xi is never wrong, instead of switching or adjusting the strategy China enforced the old strategy deeper, sending China into a lockdown hellscape. As many as 300 million people were locked down at one point. Health workers also actively killed pets while their owners were in quarantine.

In 2020, PRC successfully launched Zhurong rover to Mars. In typical CCP fashion, the Party took all the credit, disregarding the fact that it was made possible only by smart scientists and engineers. The real estate market also began to collapse in 2020, so PRC decided to double down on manufacturing, spending billions of dollars on building more factories and export more goods to keep the Chinese economy from crashing. This worked, but now PRC is making way more stuff than the world could buy, causing a LOT of overcapacity. This also means that PRC doesn't need any imports, causing PRChina get many trade surpluses, making him very rich. PRC has the entire global trade system to his benefit now.

As of 2020, the total amount of wastewater discharge is 43.95 billion tons, exceeding the environmental capacity by 82 percent. In the seven major river systems, 40.9 percent of the water is not suitable for drinking by humans or livestock. 75% of the lakes are so polluted as to produce various degrees of eutrophication.

In 2021, Xi launched the "Common Prosperity" campaign, as a populist economic push to rein in the massive wealth gap. It involved cracking down on tech billionaires and private education companies, but it was also a way to centralize power.

It was leaked that, before the 20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party in 2022, Xi Jinping held a secret meeting targeted at smearing and spreading disinformation about Falun Gong. Widespread disinformation and dehumanizing propaganda, supported and funded by the Chinese Communist regime (either directly or indirectly), will be played out against Falun Gong (and Shen Yun) in the following months, especially through influencers on social media.

In November 2022, the people finally had enough of the Zero-COVID policy that they stepped to the streets and protested, holding blank papers as a symbolism of censorship. This was known as the White Paper Protests, calling for the CCP and Xi to step down. The central leadership eventually cracked and "quietly" dismantled the Zero-COVID policy. However, the government's sudden capitulation exposed how poorly PRC had planned for the time after Zero-COVID, so the virus surged through the Chinese population, infecting tens of millions in a matter of weeks, with 2 million excess deaths occurring two months after the policy. The endings of COVID in China was a mismanaged disaster, and we still don't know how many Chinese people actually died to COVID. A few months after the chaos settled, Xi declared decisive victory over the virus in 2023. He made no apologies, admitted no mistakes, and expressed no repentance whatsoever. But hey, perfect doesn't make mistakes, it only makes different shades of victory.

From 2023-4ish, PRC's banks have ran out of cash, and he doesn't want anymore cash to leave his banks. This made extracting your own money from banks very difficult, having to wait a few days and go through a lot of verification processes. And, when in the G20 summit in Brazil in 18-19 November 2024, when Xi Jinping was asked about human rights and the jailed reporters, CCP staff began escorting reporters out of the room.

The trade surplus caused by overcapacity of Chinese products reached nearly a trillion dollars in 2024. That is more than any country's trade surplus in the last century, even accounting for inflation. PRC doesn't show any sign of stopping, until Trump came in and slapped him with a 125% tariff in April 2025. PRC decided to retaliate with a 85% tariff, but many factories still became empty and the Chinese economy is still getting wrecked, one thing is made clear: the US doesn't need PRC, but PRC does need the US.

In March-April 2025, China began experiencing really strong winds (and some hail), causing major devastation. The wind came very sudden. The government advised anyone under 110lbs to not leave the house. People are panic-buying from supermarkets.

In May 2025, COVID is back in China, but actually it never left, because in 2022/3 PRC declared victory and stopped all talks and reports of it. A 90-day ceasefire was called in the US-China trade war and tariffs were lowered, and PRC's large and small companies were hit hard, the Chinese economy is struggling. Population is in decline, conditions of work and economy makes it extremely unfavorable for Chinese youth to start a family and have kids.

Nowadays, housing prices in China have collapsed. Banks are strapped for cash. Unemployment and bankruptcy are surging. The young generation has lost all hope and will. COVID has returned, and power struggles within the CPC have been brutal, even bloody. Domestically, China is sitting on a powder keg.

政治 (Politics)

Throughout Chinese history, coups and assassinations have accompanied turbulent times such as during dynastic changes. Under communist rule, however, political struggles, coups, and assassinations are the CCP's usual mode of operation.

Chinese politics are of very high stakes. One day you're the shining comrade with loyalty badges and state media singing your praises, and the next day, you "disappear" for "re-education", or "confess" on television with a suspiciously well-written script and a conveniently timed camera angle.

In PRC, power is not held—it is seized, hoarded, and weaponized. Loyalty is mandatory, and obedience is rewarded… until it isn’t. There is no such thing as retirement; only "retirement" (a.k.a. exile, internal purging, or organ donor time). Most people who have managed to grab on to power have stayed until their deaths, hence why most CCP elite members are old.

On the diplomatic front, due to the CCP's incentives and threats, a vast number of countries have chosen to sever ties with the Republic of China (Taiwan) and instead embrace the communist PRC.

经济 (Economy)

Tourism is the biggest source of income for the PRC (other sectors of the Chinese economy are failing), and because of this he has restored many cultural relics destroyed in the Cultural Revolution. PRC has also started an initiative to "present China in a positive light", both to the natives and foreigners. This means that the PRC will help cover up crime and other forms of destructive behavior, censoring the investigations and push for a quick conclusion so the incident may never be talked about again. Sometimes, it's the government themselves that do the atrocities. Such cases include:

  • Zhao Shuo and the death of his cat Wukong
  • Cat torture clans and group chats, having high bounties on famous cats
  • Black markets of endangered animals' meat
  • Local authorities breaking into shops in Shanxi to turn on the lights for tourists passing at night

人口 (Population)

PRC claims that he has around 1.4 billion people in the 2020s. According to official statistics of 2023, total population is 1.41 billion, with 560 million in urban areas and 850 million in rural areas. But since the end of the COVID lockdowns in late 2022, many have speculated otherwise.

In early 2025, videos of streets with small amounts of people from populated cities (such as Shanghai) went viral on Chinese internet. It was just the New Year, where are all the people shopping for Lunar New Year? Where are all the people buying snacks? This time of year it was supposed to be busy and filled with people. Videos of empty metros during 7:30 AM (which is usually rush hour) also surfaced. Except for tourist spots and hospitals, there were no people in the shops and no cars in the streets.

Maybe the people all went to the rural areas to celebrate with their families, but they should be returning during this time. The empty people problem has also reflected in the housing/leasing market. Things will not sell or rent out even with price lowered dramatically. The landlords of many cities have met hardship. Many great renting places that were usually being fought over have now become empty. In a country where urban housing used to be so competitive that people paid years in advance just to lock in a decent location, the sudden collapse of demand suggests something deeper than just economics. Back in the 1990s there was 1 billion people, everywhere was filled with people. Now that there are 400 more million, where did they all go?

Perhaps, China does not have as many people as the PRC claims to have. A hacker named ChinaDan has hacked into the Shanghai police database, and the amount of registered people sits at 97 million. Many medias tried to contact the hacker but all failed, so they began to use the 750,000 sample records published by the hacker and successfully contacted with some related people, and the numbers the hacker published weren't 100% accurate, but it was far from random noise.

This case exploded online. The population database of the Shanghai police was in fact the population database of the entire country, because the population database of the Chinese police are all linked together in one web. 970 million and 1.4 billion are very different numbers. This was in July 2022, before the second spike of COVID in early December 2022.

Other people have noticed that the crude salt production have declined significantly during and after COVID. During the years 2015-2019, the average was 66.6 million tons produced each year. But the 2020 the numbers are only at 58.52 million tons, and dropped to 57.06 million tons in 2021, and dropped to 49.86 million tons in 2022. Compared to the years 2015-2019, the 2022 numbers differ at 16.14 million tons, decreasing by about 24%. Compared to 2019 only, it's 25%. This could be because the factories simply shut down and production slowed to to lockdowns. But, from 2017 to 2021, exports of edible salt is far more than the imports. If the production force decreased due to COVID and the people's demand for salt does not change, it should be the other way around for the imports and exports.

Plus, in recent times, the Chinese people' tastes have become more and more demanding for spices, and the average salt a person eats in a day have been increasing in the past few years. The average Chinese citizen today isn't eating like someone from 1990. The population has urbanized, tastes have globalized, and there's been a big shift toward spicier, saltier, more processed foods—especially with the explosion of hot pot, instant noodles, spicy snacks, and fast food chains everywhere. Considering this, the salt production decline matched with the population decline might be more than 25%. 25% of 1.4 billion is 350 million, and add a little more it's 400 million. Combined with the deaths of the people of COVID and natural disasters that seems to be more common now than ever in China, and plus immigration to other countries, it is entirely possible.

Putting it all together:

  • Empty metros and shopping areas in giant cities like Shanghai
  • Ghosted real estate markets, even in prime zones
  • A credible hack showing only 970 million people registered
  • Salt production falling off a cliff, without a matching rise in imports
  • No rebound in consumer behavior post-COVID

When you add it all up, the question becomes less about whether the numbers are inflated and more like:

How long has the PRC been lying about the population—and why?

Possible answers include:

  • To maintain domestic confidence and avoid panic
  • To support economic illusions (bigger population = bigger market!)
  • To hide the impact of COVID-related deaths, which may be far greater than reported
  • Or simply to buy time before the demographic collapse becomes too obvious to spin.

Another way we can look at this is by the cremation statistics. The 2019 report by the United Nations shows that in China, the probability of dying a natural death per year is 0.72%, the chances of cremation is 52.4%, and the number of deaths is 10 million, meaning that around 5.2 million people are cremated per year. On average, 430,000 bodies are cremated each month, and the rest 4 million are buried. In November 2022 COVID reached rapid cases of killing, and reports from all around China shows that the workload of cremating bodies rose 8-10 times more than that of 2019. And due to reasons such as needing to wait in line and rising costs, many decided to bury their deceased relative. So let's lower our cremation statistics from 52.4% to 45%, and do a rough calculation. On average, the workings of cremation doubled 9 times, and lasted from November 2022 to January 2023, about 3 months. Then, in the span of 3 months, the number of bodies cremated have reached 11.61 million, and in the same time the number of bodies buried are 14.19 million. So, in the time of this high COVID crisis, 25.8 million people have lost their lives. Some netizens believe that it's way more in actuality, and they believe up to 50 million deaths occurred during that time frame.

After April 2023, the CCP government announced that the first Omicron virus wave has passed. So, after April, the deaths caused by COVID will no longer be counted as a cause. From 2022 December 25, CCP government stopped publishing daily COVID statistics. This, which has lasted for nearly three years, suddenly stopped. From then, the truth about the pandemic in China fell deeper into the infinite abyss.

社会 (Society)

Main article: PRC Societal Model

Chinese society after the communist revolution has been filled with degeneracy, immoralism and greed. PRC has wiped out a generation of virtue and replaced it with a generation of violence, influencing the Chinese society up until today.

宣传片 (Propaganda Films)

哪吒2 (Nezha 2)

“ Now, again, I have to repeat myself- the film itself, by itself, is a good film, I liked it. But then, when you add in all of the extra nationalism stuff packed to the brim, that’s when the things turn sour. ”

A recent new hit animated movie “Nezha 2” released in 2025 shook the box office.

By itself, there is nothing inherently wrong with the Nezha 2 film. The animation is pretty good. One criticism though, is how the studio made an uglification and villianization of Nezha as a character, which strays far from the original Chinese story, just like they did to Black Myth: Wukong, making a darker interpretation of the classics. In the original story, Nezha kills a bunch of beings in the sea but later repents and becomes good, and it is a change for the positive and righteous. However, in the film, Nezha is a misunderstood character from the start and it was the world's fault that Nezha was the way he is.

The PRC uses this film to promote its agenda. Nezha 2 has become another nationalism symbol in China, and it is generating a movement called “raising the flag”.

The irony though, is in the plot of Nezha and how it’s promoted by the Chinese government. In the film, Nezha says that his own life is determined by himself, not by the heavens, meaning that he wants to control his life in his own hands. But the idea of Chinese people on the CCP’s side supporting this message is hilarious, because not long ago during COVID (2020-2023), Chinese people were literally forced to take mandatory daily COVID testings, so much for personal freedom. It is strange how the film has been turned into a nationalist movement. The entire identity of Nezha is breaking the rules that’s been set around him, and breaking the expectations that he was told, something the PRC would certainly not let the Chinese people do.

The supporters are saying that the movie’s rising ranks is not just about the movie itself, but it is a rise of “our people and cultural confidence”. In China right now in early 2025, everywhere you see this uniform voice telling you to see Nezha 2, to spend money and watch it 2-3 times, to break the records at the box office to make it show up as a pure numbers game. With a population of over a billion, achieving record numbers isn’t particularly difficult, though it raises questions about the film’s legitimacy as a global success. Like Black Myth Wukong, the vast majority of the fanbase are from China, so of course they made a lot of sales. But that’s not because there was a global sensational or critically acclaimed situation going on. Most of Nezha 2’s sales of come from domestic audiences, and its international performance, as expected, is not as strong.

The wha that the PRC and supporters pushes it to promote Chinese nationalism is weird. Many are watching it not for enjoyment but to contribute to a political goal. They act like the film’s rise in the box office is not just a success for the film, it’s for the Chinese people and identity, which is quite a ridiculous belief. No other country believes this, for example, Americans don’t take patriotism or nationalism from Avatar 2. It will be strange for the Americans to claim that they themselves made a billion dollars off of it, or that they feel proud to be American because of the film. But that’s what the PRC does, framing watching Nezha 2 as a patriotic duty, hinting at the people that loving and supporting the film is loving and supporting the country.

It's the kind of strange cringy thing you will get by mixing myths with self-contradictory conspiracy theories, "cool" dark fantasy style, "liberal" creeds, "national communism" and CG techs, just like Black Myth: Wukong.

蛟龙行动 (Operation Leviathan)

Operation Leviathan (also translated as Operation Hadal) is a pro-CCP propaganda live action film about a Chinese nuclear submarines. This film did terribly, so terribly that they took it out of the theater.

Parts of the script were written down on little pieces of paper and memorized, and when foreign actors came on to act they have to hide the papers, because apparently the script contains secrets have Chinese weaponry and they have to “protect” it. This gathered a lot of ridicule from the Chinese internet, many people saying that “to protect our national secrets, I won’t go watch the movie.” And they kept their word.

The plot of the movie is quite ridiculous as well. In the movie, when the submarine is failing, the people start singing patriotic CCP songs, and a few frames later everything is fixed.

领土收复？ (Claim back rightfully lost land?)

The PRC has been in a constant struggle trying to get control over the island of Taiwan. PRC claims it is because Taiwan is “rightful Chinese clay” and is a “unremovable piece of sovereign Chinese territory”. However, PRC has signed over chunks of land (that was lost to Russia and were scheduled to return to China at a certain date) that are way bigger than Taiwan to Russia in order to keep good relations with him. So what is the real reason behind this land claim, as will as the claims over the “Nine-Dash Line”? Some people say it’s because Taiwan has good technologies, but the reason Taiwan has them is not due to their geographical location, and the lands signed over to Russia, if the PRC have kept it, would have opened many good trading ports that can boost China economically. The real reason PRC keep advocating the invasion of Taiwan is to stir up hate and struggle.

Technically speaking, PRC firstly separate from ROC, so when he say "reunification", there's only one meaning - total victory of PRC, not any other possible solutions. So everyone know this agenda is unfair, and any possible meaningful discussion or change should happen after him.

琐事 (Trivia)

  • Most of China’s failed rocket launches' pieces land in residential areas. This is very dangerous, and the pieces also sometimes release toxic fumes.
  • There are posters everywhere about "organizing trash" in China, such as recycling, kitchen waste, hazardous waste and other waste. However, this is all a facade, as all the trash gets mixed together into the garbage truck in the end.
  • The PRC uses one timezone for all of his vast land.
  • 35 is an internally agreed number of casualties that the PRC reports on crime usually do not go over, even if the actual casualties are much higher.
  • To ensure their personal safety, Chinese leaders have installed the strictest gun controls. For decades, Chinese police didn't carry guns. In about the mid-2010s, some were allowed to have guns. But the vetting process and rules for retrieving and returning guns are very cumbersome, so some officers still prefer to not carry guns. The Chinese military also have strict police's on limiting servicemen's access to weapons, and guns are also separated from munition. This is the reason why it's rare to see gun violence in China.
  • An estimate of over 1000 people are executed every year in PR China. That is more people executed per hear than all other countries combined. And that's only the official reported stats, the PRC wants to hide and classify the actual numbers which could be way higher, unlike Iran who likes to brag about executing people.
  • Chinese media edited photos of American Olympic players to make their face look purple, and nicknaming the players “Thanos”.
  • Whenever a natural disaster happens in the West, the CCP media paints it like there is no resources and no aid and no one being rescued. Many people in China, despite living poor, think that Americans have it way worse and are just jealous.
  • The PRC government fabricates around 488 million social media posts per year, representing about 0.6 percent of the 80 billion posts generated on Chinese social media.
  • In PRC, religion is more of a big business rather than an actual sense of belief.
  • In China, during marriage, the newly wed couple gets red envelopes filled with money that is supposed to bring good luck and prosperity. But, many older uncles and aunties, most of them who were Red Guards during the Cultural Revolution, think that these envelopes somehow belongs to them even though they are distant family. So they will stop and drag on the groom’s clothes and stop their cars to mug them of their envelopes, pulling and chasing them. This has essentially became a tradition. As you can see, many of the more giving and honorable elders were killed off during the communist revolutions.
  • People line up 8-9 hours every day in front of the government building to petition them to help. But in most cases it goes unsolved. Many have to camp out the night before to beat the line. Many people do collapse, because there’s no places to get water. These lines can stretch over blocks, and these are just the ones who make it. A lot of people were stopped along the way, captured, and some sent to mental hospitals for being "critics of the government".
  • 80% of unsafe products come from PRC.
  • Of the world’s nearly one billion surveillance cameras in 2022, an estimated 54% were in communist China.
  • The Chinese government usually only looks into criminal cases where public opinion is already concentrated on.
  • Many sanitation workers in China wear a bracelet that tracks them and beeps when they stay in one place for too long, to prevent random breaks.
  • Chinese state-ran company Huawei has been involved in developing surveillance technologies used in Xinjiang, including facial recognition systems and biometric scanners.
  • PRC has introduced online quizzes to promote "proper socialist internet" use, making propaganda interactive.
  • PRC build some buildings that he claims have earthquake-resistant technology in Myanmar, but during the 2025 earthquake they collapsed.
  • PRC's military spending has increased 9% per year for the past two decades.
  • PRC has "death vans" or "execution vans", where they were driven around and prisoners would be taken in the van to be lethally injected. The body then would be put into a "cremation van".

國旗 (Flag)

The flag of the People's Republic of China is a blood-socked banner with five yellow stars taped on the top left corner, with one big star and four little stars surrounding the right side of the big star. The red represents blood of the innocent lives he took and Communist revolution, and the big star represent the Chinese Communist Party, and the four little ones representing four social classes (workers, peasants, petty bourgeoise, national bourgeoise), symbolizing how all peoples are under the rule of the CCP.

The flag was designed by Zeng Liansong, and was first hoisted by the People's Liberation Army on a pole overlooking Beijing's Tiananmen Square on 1 October 1949, at a ceremony proclaiming the establishment of the People's Republic of China.

Mao Zedong personally approved of the flag, who reportedly liked it because it based on a line from the Records of the Grand Historian: "When five stars appear in the East, it is auspicious for China."

笔录 (Notes)

  1. ↑ Since the script simplification was already long over when Hong Kong and Macau were handed over, they still use the Traditional Script. In other places on the mainland it is discouraged to use the traditional script, and almost no one can read it.
  2. ↑ There has been multiple crackdowns on Halloween celebrations throughout communist China because the government get offended over some costumes.
  3. ↑ A picture of a bright red apple and its insides which are rotten sparked a discussion on the Chinese internet. Many people immediately drew connection to the current state of the PRC, since on the outside to the international stage it looks so good but inside is rotten. The redness of the apple also mimics the red flag associated with the PRC. Many commenters said things like "when the apple begins to rot on the outside, they'll try to hide it", and "only been 70 days, why does it have so many worms?" implying the 70th anniversary of the PRC.
  4. ↑ Yes, a lot of Chinese nationalists actually believe that by showing the Chinese passport in foreign countries can scare away attackers such as robbers.
  5. ↑ Oh the hypocrisy…
  6. ↑ The PRC actually claims this. I bet would disagree…
