Hu Jintao being forcibly escorted from the 20th Communist Party Congress closing ceremony

https://t.co/OTnsHKokSu

This is deliberate humiliation of Hu Jintao by Xi Jinping. It was done in front of international news media and surely signals a hardening of Xi’s rule. Hu was the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party between 2002-2012 and Xi Jinping’s immediate predecessor. The general secretary of the CCP is China’s top ruler. Xi will be rubber stamped as general secretary on Sunday, making him communist China’s most powerful ruler since Mao Zedong. See this for more information: The new Central Committee on Sunday will choose the elite Politburo Standing Committee, with Xi, 69, widely expected to secure a third leadership term. ABN

UPDATE: If anyone thinks Hu is being led out because he is ill, the close-up below should dispel that idea. Note that Xi waited until just after international press were admitted to the hall to expel Hu. Notice also, the man to the right of Hu starts to stand to intervene or do something but the man to his right pulls on his coat to get him to sit back down. This exchange is clearer in the video below. The man who stands is  Li Zhanshu, a Xi ally. The man who sits him back down is Wang Huning, who is an advisor to Xi Jinping. Notice that after Li sits back down Wang puts his hands on the table and signals Li to do the same. Kicking Hu Jintao out was a strong power display by Xi and a signal to the world. The video will be censored in China but that will only make it go more viral. It is also a strong signal to everyone in China. ABN

Musk’s Dangerous Vision for Twitter ~ Robert Malone

“We” are being manipulated into the vision of Elon being the free speech shield-bearer – but what has Musk revealed recently as to his true motivations for wanting Twitter.

Musk’s vision for Twitter is “one stop shopping.” E-commerce. He intends to bring social media, banking, auto loans, Amazon type buying, insurance, paying loans and utility bills, medical insurance, service estimates, you name it- under the umbrella of Twitter. Everything you do, buy, need – could be bought on the Twitter website. This is about power and money.

Why does he care about bot accounts? Because what he is buying is access to you, to me, to each and everyone of us on Twitter now or on Twitter in the future. He wants to know the exact number of warm bodies to sell to his investors. Remember – with the purchase of Twitter, he will have a client base maybe in the billions – before he even launches a single product! That client base includes some of the most influential, wealthy and educated people on the planet.

So, why is this such a bad thing?

Let’s go back to free speech.

Eva Vlaardingerbroek highlights nasty decline of the West ~ “Is this what ‘the free west’ is about?”

🇳🇱 The Dutch government is ramping up the expropriation of our farmers, driving some of them to commit suicide. They’re a bunch of inhumane greedy liars and thieves who created a fake crisis to rob people of their rights and property.

Is this what ‘the free west’ is about?

This is raw power, total mind-control, has nothing to do with covid

Now, doing some normal shopping in #CCPChina can become quite an adventure. At a mall in #Hangzhou city, #Zhejiang province, ppl trying to escape as a sudden lockdown is going to be imposed. Or, as the 2nd half shows, u are taken away for #Covquarantine at 1:30 am. #amazingchina

Bad as USA/West is, and it is quite bad and getting worse, this is the most probable alternative if the West loses the AI/quantum/technological war. See my comments directly below or at Whitney Webb Interview – The Google AI Sentience Psyop if you are not on the main page. ABN

Inside China’s secret police station in NEW YORK whose officers hunt down dissidents and ‘persuade’ them to return home

  • One of at least 54 secret Chinese police stations is located in New York City’s Chinatown neighborhood 
  • A human rights watchdog reported the existence of these stations around the world to observe and hunt down dissidents 
  • Many stations around the world are disguised, often running inside Chinese restaurants or convenience stores 
  • Since the stations opened in April 2021, the Chinese government has said it ‘persuaded’ 230,000 Chinese nationals to return home

Summary of Putin’s speech

I wish every single person in the West would listen to Putin's speech. Obviously, that won't happen so let me summarise as a professional translator for 10+ years. He states, as he has done from the outset, what his intentions and complaints are in the plainest terms possible.🧵

Setting aside his brief comments on the recent "referendums", he spends most of his speech discussing the West. His primary complaint isn't NATO expansion, which gets only a cursory mention. The West is greedy and seeks to enslave and colonise other nations, like Russia.

The West uses the power of finance and technology to enforce its will on other nations. To collect what he calls the "hegemon's tax". To this end the West destabilises countries, creates terrorist enclaves and most of all seeks to deprive other countries of sovereignty.

It is this “avarice” and desire to preserve its power that is the reason for the “hybrid war” the collective West is “waging on Russia”. They want us to be a “colony”. They do not want us to be free, they want Russians to be a mob of soulless slaves – direct quote.

[This is an easy, quick read. Whatever your politics or opinion, it behooves all of us to hear what he has to say. I personally agree with most of it. They are doing it to us now, too. ABN]
