well, in some ways, coronavirus has triggered widespread loss of confidence in the CCP so the argument remains. in many ways, the timing is also parallel - imagine 2 more generations of CCP control. They already have a firm grip, their control could've been insurmountable.
Same with USA etc.
I do think that we've all been asleep, passive, and unwilling to collectively come together and make the effort to fix all these problems. imo, we're lucky that these idiots were not more patient.
