“China – Communist Slave State”

“Traitor” is too strong a word to describe Gu but I understand why some of her critics have reached for it to capture the depth of the betrayal of which she’s guilty.

Gu is the breakout star of the Olympics, having won two golds and a silver in skiing. She’s also a talented pianist, scored 1580 on her SATs, got into Stanford, and is so gorgeous that she models professionally. She’s a California girl, born in San Francisco to a Chinese-American mother. She should be the pride of the U.S.

She’s a national disgrace. She chose to compete for a genocidal regime, China, at the Genocide Games rather than for her home country.

The Russian doping committee set Beijing on fire

It was only fitting that China’s hopes of putting on the perfect Olympics should ultimately be dashed by its new partner in crime, Russia. The two countries started the Beijing Winter Olympics by announcing a “no-limits” partnership against the West, and ended them with one of the biggest sporting scandals in recent Olympic history.

It was a September day, hot and dusty, normal. Meryem Sultan was lined up in front of the school with three classes of Uyghur schoolkids waiting for the buses. Back when she was nine, Meryem hated these school trips to the country. She had to pick caterpillars off the crops because, she was told, Chinese people liked to eat them. Kind of weird. When she was ten, what bugged her was that she was the smartest kid in the class, but now the teachers said they had to pick cotton. Then they told Meryem off, right in front of everyone — “Meryem, your results at school mean nothing. If you can’t pick cotton? You’re useless.” It was humiliating, but other kids were getting regular beatings for slacking off. Anyway, it was “just part of going to school” so Meryem did it. Turned out, she could pick faster than almost anyone in the class, especially the boys. Once she got going, she was “an addict.”

Strategic incompetence has always plagued Beijing

When I first arrived in China in 1976, four years had passed since Nixon and Kissinger had gone to Beijing to meet Mao, kicking off what Nixon would label “the week that changed the world”. But that interval was not long enough to dispel the thick fog of misrepresentations and outright lies spun during that visit by both the Americans and Chinese — though none of those tales concerned what really mattered: the geopolitical victory that came from that trip.

The lede from the AP’s story about what happened last night is unbeatable: “The gold medalist said she felt empty. The silver medalist pledged never to skate again. The favorite left in tears without saying a word.”

Congratulations to Russia, which took first, second, and fourth places in women’s figure-skating while turning the competition into a sh*tshow so repellent that sportswriters were using terms like “child abuse” afterward to describe what went down.

When truckers took over Canada’s capital, Ottawa, and shut down border entry points to America, some called it a “nationwide insurrection.” Mass demonstrations have occurred across the democratic world. People have had enough of two years of mandates and other disease-control measures.

Not so in the world’s most populous state, which maintains the world’s strictest COVID-19 controls. There are no known popular protests in the People’s Republic of China against anti-coronavirus efforts.

Yet China is not stable, and Xi Jinping is facing his “End of Days,” as a recent essay by opposition figures (see below) puts it. The revolt is not in society at large but at the top of the Communist Party. As Gregory Copley, president of the International Strategic Studies Association, told Gatestone, Xi Jinping, China’s mighty-looking leader, has an “enormous array of domestic enemies.”

NBC has publicly addressed its low-rated broadcast of the Genocide Games, with a senior network executive describing the situation as “difficult” while blaming the pandemic for the low level of enthusiasm.
