If China is the guarantor of “peace,” brace for collapse. Xi Jinping’s regime can’t even manage its own borders without barbed wire and surveillance. The dragon dreams of empire but trembles at roadside bombs in #Balochistan. Hubris meets reality. 4/4.

Let’s be clear: #Beijing doesn’t care about #Afghan refugees, #Pakistani chaos, or cross-border terror. The only thing Xi fears is an attack interrupting his Belt and Road photo ops. Lives mean nothing, highways and pipelines mean everything. 2/4.

#China wants to play marriage counselor between #Pakistan and the #Taliban. That’s like the arsonist offering to mediate between the flames & the house. #Xi will dress it up as “neighborhood diplomacy”. reality is it’s all about saving CPEC. 1/4.

As China pushes to expand the CPEC, Pakistan-Afghanistan tensions continue to cast a shadow over trilateral diplomacy.

#China loves wrapping its crumbling apartments in neon LEDs, pretending “modern.” .Inside? Elevators reek of garbage, bacteria, and decay. residents dumping trash where they live. A perfect mirror of #CCP rule: glossy outside, rotten within. 1/4 @GundamNorthrop @W

#HongKong was once a city of #FreeSpeech, now reduced to a courtroom spectacle where rainstorms and heart monitors delay the CCP’s farce. This isn’t justice. It’s Beijing’s warning. dissent will be crushed, even if it means killing an old man slowly. 4/4.

#XiJinping jails #journalists and calls it “national security.” A newspaper owner turned into an enemy of the state for daring to print what #Beijing cannot bear to hear. Every minute Lai spends behind bars is proof of the CCP’s insecurity. #PressFreedom 3/4.

Dozens queued in the rain to witness #JimmyLai’s national security trial. A 77‑year‑old man, jailed since 2020, now battling heart palpitations. #Beijing calls this “law.” The world calls it what it is: persecution in broad daylight. 1/4 @hongkongishere @SOLO

Cheese, cream, & tariffs—the new axis of global drama! .#CCPChina says it’s the EU’s subsidies, EU says it’s protectionism. But let’s be honest. this is a tit-for-tat tantrum. The global dairy industry? Just collateral damage. 2/4.

Six more months? .#China’s “complexity” excuse for dragging out its #EU dairy probe is peak trade theater. Watch as strained relations curdle hopes for fair play. Reality check for #Brussels: #Beijing doesn’t believe in quick answers. 1/4 @SolomonYue .

China will extend its probe into dairy imports from the European Union for another six months, delaying a decision as tensions linger between the two trade partners.

#Beijing’s new law? More stage dressing than shield. Entrepreneurs need real bankruptcy protection, legal clarity, and a way out that isn’t a rooftop. But paper promises don’t rewrite political motives. 3/4.

#Xi loves to boast that the private sector powers the economy, over half the taxes, 60% of GDP, and 90% of companies. Yet founders survive less than four years, and one regulatory sneeze can bury you for good. 2/4.

#China’s entrepreneurial miracle! Now starring desperate founders in obituaries, not business profiles. Four suicides in three months. welcome to the land of broken dreams, hostile policies, and state-made landmines. 1/4 @hongkongishere @GundamNorthrop.

The private sector needs enforceable protections, predictable regulation, and personal bankruptcy laws
