Funny thing - human nature rejects being pushed around.... I refer you to the hallmark book, 'Intervention and Revolution' which gives reason why people will revolt.

Hopefully the CCP is learning about the idiocy of war, and follows its own path to prosperity:


"Moreover, a great strategy has been raised by Xi; a so-called fresh, brand-new mode of public governance has been experimented, and a new world order is emerging. It is argued that those who will be alive around 2050 will witness the rise of China to an unprecedented level. More fundamentally, Xi emphasizes meritocracy and would like to apply it to every corner of public governance in China. A question arises naturally: whether meritocracy, which the Chinese views as a tradition and may be regenerated by the Xi regime, can enlighten public governance in China and beyond"?

Russia will remain as a nation, after this war.

And climate change, poverty eradication, and sustainable economic development will remain key issues.

Your 'right to rule'  will increasingly be seen as an irrelevance, a distraction from the real task facing humanity.

No one takes the CCP seriously on any matter; social, political, cultural or climate change.

What the CCP does excel at is making catastrophic mistakes.

From self-created famines, to cultural self-genocide, to social 'experiments' (i.e. the one-child policy), to rampant promotion of get-rich-quick-ism without appropriate controls against corruption, to protecting Kim Jong-Un's regime (despite the fact that Koreans hate the Chinese), to the promoting of hatred among the Chinese towards all its neighbours throughout the region, to criminal negligence with a virus outbreak, to needling its neighbours in an attempt to provoke their military overreaction, to backing a dictator in a genocidal war...

But it's precisely what happens within totalitarian regimes.

Putin's ultimate fate (echoing the steady creep of paranoia that infected all totalitarians who have gone before him) is a pre-run for the CCP's collapse.

And what a mess the Chinese people will discover is left behind to be cleaned up.

My latest thought on the war:

It's time the Ukrainians cut off all: fuel, food and ammo to the Russians -
then surround them and either kill them or take them as prisoners -
then use them as slave labor to help rebuild Ukraine.
Don't let them go back to Russia to have another go later.

The Russians drive all the :fuel, food and ammo in
trucks that cross the borders of Ukraine from Russia.
They then drive down the road to the outskirts of Kiev.
They are being targeted as we speak.
Hopefully that strategy will work.

“Even now, agents from the Department of Homeland Security have begun to raid homes, workplaces, and houses of worship for undocumented immigrants, who will be immediately flown back to Honduras or wherever they come from. We will welcome Ukrainians escaping the violence with the warm bed just vacated by some Hispanic guy we captured and sent back to Mexico. It is important in this tragic moment that we support European—and only European—refugees and asylum-seekers.” Biden added that the United States reserved the right to deport the Ukrainian refugees if asylum-seekers from a more Western country came along.
