Narrative Warfare: West Taiwan Relies On Banal Bullshit & Bribery

Today I'll turn your attention to West Taiwan, specifically a short history of the leadership issues that plague the Chinese Communist Party. Let's Real Talk is a channel that handles the West Taiwan beat, and she's been very good about pointing out insider operations that flesh out parts of the historical narrative that heretofore were conjecture at best.

She has plenty more on recent events, and you'll find her perspective aligns with that of the ADV China duo and others that (a) know the language and thus (b) know how things work in the mainland.

Speaking of ADV China, Winston cut this video in January and you'll see how this is as insidious as he claims when you think it through.

There is an accompanying podcast episode.

This is the so-called "soft power", which lasts until you start getting the straight dope from people who's been there (like the ADV China duo, or China Uncensored), at which point the propaganda becomes very easy to spot.

The observation I make is that Beijing is not as good as it internationally as Globohomo is; all of the same tricks are done in the West by Empire's Thralls to push Globohomo, but they are far more effective due to (a) better deniability, (b) longer time in practice, (c) superior methods of media control.

The CCP relies on simple brute-force methods of media control, such that everyone knows when they see it and thus knows not to trust it (thus perpetuating the Han low-trust paradigm). Globohomo relies on carefully control fake opposition, Narrative Warfare, and very surgical uses of lawfare to achieve the same ends- and thus the myth of a free press, freedom of opinion, etc. is maintained because the real power ensures that those opinions have no impact.

In short, the CCP is being roundly outplayed by Globohomo right now, and once the collpase of the economy is complete the CCP's attempts to maintain its already-fraying image of power and prestige will be see by one and all for the sham that it is- and that's when Globohomo goes in for the kill. Not only is the mainland not going to succeed at any nationalist ambitions, it will be either destroyed or re-conquered for Empire; expect Globohomo to resume its capital relocation plan--which is what was intended to happen under Jiang Zemin--from its Brussels-London-Washington DC triad to Beijing when this is complete.

Unless, of course, Globohomo collapses about the same time- and that is hardly improbable as things stand. Empire must fall.
