This guy thinks China is full of shit. Good analysis. Worth watching for the reasons why.
Isnât he that controversial sexpat guy or something?
Is he? I didnât know that. He left China and seems to hate it now. Most of his videos are critical of China and CCP.
No he is not.

I am in HK and a day rarely goes by without some news about China flying into Taiwanese airspace with greater number of aircraft. US, UK, Oz and European aircarriers steaming into the Pacific to protect international maritime routes etc etc.
However looking at the threads from people in Taiwan it is âwhere is the best danping?â âBest beef noodle in Taipei?â
What gives? Are people in Taiwan just immune to Chinaâs latest shenanigans or overseas people too much on edge?
Yes, Taiwanese are selling their property in droves, not!
Weâre immune. Weâve been through it all before. Weâve even had missiles exploding off the coast in the nineties.
We donât care, we donât scare.
Uh, I think weâre all concerned but these sort of provocations have been happening for a long time in various forms. Thereâs not much I can do about it as a foreigner. Thereâs also a lot of things to worry about, so I do my best to control what I can and not stress too much about what I canât.
Life goes on, still need to eat dan bing.

Itâs just China being China.

Let them come
Itâs just a bluff. If they wanted theyâd do it already.
I think theyâre still trying to figure out how to get around the 3+11 defense shield though.

If Taiwan shoots down some planes (which they are more than capable of) China would have a reason to start a war.
The west keeps spouting that nonsense. China doesnât need a reason. If youâre not with us youâre against us kinda thought.
I donât know the exact reasons why theyâre not attacking. But it has nothing to do with their capability, cost or prestige.
Most of those flights are into the Dongsha Atoll area well south of Kaohsiung. Likewise the Chinese test the Vietnamese with the Paracel Islands often, as well as the Philippines with the Spratly Islands, and of course Japan with a few Rocks to the NE of Taiwan. Then of course the US are playing the game too, which went wrong for them a few years back when a Navy Orion spy plane collided with a Chinese fighter near Hainan.
Theyâre industrial output will go to zero overnight.
Itâs the jet colliding with Orion. Just bad piloting of the Chinese guy.
Exactly who thought about that during WW 2? And did it happen? No. Production skyrocketed.
Wanna feel old? That âfew years backâ was in 2001.
