"China is collapsing"

Every self-proclaimed China expert since 2000.

I know I won't change your mind but for everyone else do note that HN is one of the worst places to get unbiased opinions on the country if you actually have curiosity on this matter.

Go watch unbiased Chinese citizen videos like https://www.youtube.com/@laobaixing-CN, https://www.youtube.com/@China559, https://www.youtube.com/@user-ii2lv3iq9r https://www.youtube.com/@zgbx if you want the truths. But I highly doubt you speak any mandarin, or for that matter, pay any attention to recent events coming out of China. Since otherwise you would know about Apple, dell, hp, lg, Kyocera currently shifting manufacturing out of China. Or how Guizhou just became the first Chinese state to file for bankruptcy. Or how Chinese government just raised retirement age from 60 to 65.
Thanks for providing those channels. But I noticed the video creators are not in China but in US/Taiwan. Seems like propaganda more than truth.
How did you figure they're unbiased?

It's not too hard to sample some people shitting all over their country basically in any country. There tons of these "unbiased truths" about the collapse of western civilization, or racial theories, or alternative medicine or whatever.

How do you figure this is actually representative?
