What are the chances that the ongoing protests in China escalate into an armed conflict?

An interesting development which could add fuel to the fire.

The next day this has occurred. They're giving concessions as it's the only choice. But some suspect that the world's leading police state with amazing tracking powers, and control of the citizen's lives through the "social credit score system" which gives the central government nearly total control of basic services and social choices, will be employed behind the scenes to find and tame anyone involved in this uprising. Things have now changed, as anything like this hasn't been seen in a generation and it seems to be the youth who are fed up. They were promised a better life more integrated with the outer world but they now see the hope is gone with the Xi.

Maybe there's hope for mainland China to become a better place without as much death and destruction that history has proven they are capable of and which occurs on a regular basis.

And you have the WEF praising the Chinese system as a template. Yet people still ignore what they tell all of us to our face, especially Dr. Evil himself. I find this as another bizarre point of ignorance/blindspot for such a smart forum otherwise.

Also, in the hill article, it seems they are totally unaware that the "west" just performed similar levels of human rights abuses for the last few years, including destroying people's businesses, incenting others to fire workers, and creating social chaos as a result, along the same lines. Unreal they are this blind and prostituted out.

I see no way out short of starting your country.

Many members of the Democrat Party are keen to link Christianity with Far Right extremism. Indeed, this is becoming a fixed point in the liberal narrative at the moment as activist groups seek to force religious organizations to be ‘accepting’ of LGBQT lifestyles and trans ideology e.g. Catholic adoption agencies forced to provide gay couples with children. As a Brit living in the US with no beef in the game, I can honestly say that I see more intolerance coming from Never-Trumpers than I do Trump-supporters. Unlike the vast majority of politicians in DC who are all too quick to excoriate evangelists, Trump made parishioners feel good about themselves again.

The world appears to be in a struggle between the Right and the Left. I believe a fundamental struggle is going on, but it is not necessarily between these two sides of ideology.

As I have written elsewhere (see my site at https://www.comingstorms.com), I believe that originally Right and Left came from viewing government from two different ideals. The Right views the government as necessary for Justice while the Left sees the government as necessary for Mercy. Both are actually concepts of Good. We should require justice for all, yet we should be merciful and giving to others.

The problem today is that the while the Left sprang from this idea of “Mercy” to the poor and otherwise afflicted, it has been subverted.
The real struggle is between Good and Evil. At its core, Evil is about Force. Forcing people to do things or to give up things against their will.

The “Mercy” of the Left is now actually based on Force. Government handout programs are based on high taxation, that is, using the power of the government to force you to give up funds/property, so that they can give them to others. Or “forcing” you to accept national debt (which you as a citizen are liable for) to fund these programs. This is not much different from the force of excessive taxation. {This is not to say that Mercy is invalid. Quite to contrary. People are supposed to help each other. The should donate what they can and provide selfless service to help those in need. In fact, the Christian ethic should be to "love one another" and to "help one another"}

The Far Left has gone further. In fact, they have adopted positions in conflict with just about every single one of the 10 commandments, the code that is the basis for law and morality.

I have already addressed theft. They now also condone murder, in this case it being the “unborn” as we saw in previous discussions. They condone lying, which is what their censorship and subversion of the truth is about.

They certainly condone all of the sexual deviance going on now, as per the adoption of the LBGQT agenda and the efforts to destroy marriage and the nuclear family. This is probably the most insidious, as sexuality outside of marriage is based on lust, not love, and the destruction of the family leads to a cataclysmic collapse of basic values.

They are not just “pro-mercy” at this point. They are actually “anti-justice”. This is now seen with the failure to enforce basic laws against theft and physical assault.

In fact, in their minds, there basically is No Evil. There are just people who cannot control themselves due to no fault of their own. They were “born that way” or they “had a bad childhood” or they “have some kind of addiction” or some other condition which gives them the right to do whatever they want.

The far left is out to destroy whatever is left of Good. They call Good evil and Evil good.

Great post, Navi. Why? Because what you state is accurate, and true.

The most difficult thing to accomplish is maintaining mercy and love to those who would injure you. Forgiveness for it's own sake with the knowledge that anyone is redeemable at any time. I believe this transcends and permeates all religions
