The United States stands firmly with Japan. Welcome to today's episode of Decoding China. Everything you need to understand the latest developments is right here. The generation the regime fears most is completely out of control. Students and schoolchildren across China ignite protests and riots. The CCP can no longer stop this nightmare. The Chinese government is increasingly unable to suppress the riots breaking out across the mainland. Notably, the younger generation is stepping forward, boldly standing up to protest for their rights and challenge the Chinese Communist Party's authoritarian and oppressive policies. From the white paper protests demanding freedom to demonstrations against bullying, policy changes, extended school hours, tuition fees, and more, these sparks of unrest signal the potential for a revolution. This is the CCP's nightmare. Its indoctrination and suppression tactics are losing effectiveness. A clear example of how frightening this generation has become. In early September 2025, a nationwide wave of protests led by Generation Z in Nepal rapidly escalated into a violent uprising, forcing Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Ali to resign on September 9th and shocking the world. The driving force was young students, especially university students who, with access to uncensored social media, quickly recognized the corrupt and authoritarian nature of the regime. On November 17th, students at Longley County No. 1 High School in Guizhou Province rallied and chanted slogans to protest the school's prison-style management. The incident stemmed from a new timetable released on November 11. According to the plan, students must complete 13 class periods each day, plus morning reading. To fit in such an intense workload, the school requires students to wake up at 6 a.m. and go to bed at 11, 10 p.m. This leaves them with no time for personal activities or recreation and less than seven hours of sleep per night, even with a one-hour lunch break. What angered students further was that the new rules required them to take their lunch break in the classroom and forbade returning to the dorms. Many said sleeping face-down on a desk provides no real rest. Such high-intensity scheduling and reduced sleep, they argued, will inevitably damage their physical and mental health. In the end, under the pressure of United Student Action, the school administration made a temporary concession. Students were allowed to return to their dorms for lunch break that day, and the school announced that future lunch breaks would also be taken in the dorms. From the evening of November 2nd through November 3rd in Datong City, Shanxi Province, large numbers of students and netizens gathered outside Datong No. 4 High School to buy grilled sausages, take photos, and check in, showing support for a female student whose keys were reportedly confiscated by the vice principal after she bought a grilled sausage. In a widely circulated video, the girl can be seen emotionally crying out, After the man seized her keys, the incident quickly sparked widespread sympathy and outrage online. Many netizens questioned, Is buying a sausage now a crime? Others commented that the school's actions appeared aimed at monopolizing food sales and forcing students to eat only in the school cafeteria. The incident continues to draw public attention and widespread anger. From October 15 to 16, hundreds of 11th grade students at Tongbei High School in Tongshan District, Shuzhou City, Jiangsu Province, launched a two-day anti-whole-person education protest. The students collectively went on strike and held demonstrations, eventually forcing the school to announce the dismissal of the involved principal and director of academic affairs. According to students, the organization's staff frequently interfered with teachers' classroom methods and promoted strange new models. However, these practices were seen as ineffective and merely performative. In addition, the organization was accused of withholding homeroom teachers' pay and dismissing a director of academic affairs who refused to comply with its directives. The principal's threat that none of the students here will ever get into a bachelor's program further fueled the outrage. This year, many school protests have escalated into bloody riots across China. As previously reported, on August 4 in Jiangyu City, Sichuan, the bullying of a 14-year-old girl and the Chinese Communist Party's inaction sparked large-scale protests. Authorities deployed numerous riot police to suppress the demonstrations, leading to violent clashes in which many protesters were beaten and arrested. During the protest, people shouted slogans such as Down with Xi Jinping and Overthrow the CCP, causing a major shock. On May 26, Wu Yijia, a 13-year-old female student at Sichuan No. 6 Middle School in Henan Province, fell to her death from a building after being subjected to corporal punishment by her teacher, sparking large-scale protests. Protesters angrily smashed the school's glass windows, and a large number of riot police were deployed, arresting people and using pepper spray. In January 2025, a 17-year-old boy at Pucheng County Vocational Education Center in Shanxi died after falling from a building. His family alleged bullying, but officials claimed he jumped after opening a window, triggering another protest by tens of thousands. According to netizens, this was the largest demonstration in mainland China since January 2023, with an estimated 50,000 participants. Although these protests are still small-scale and spontaneous, they demonstrate the fighting spirit of Chinese youth for freedom. One day, if they unite and connect like the people of Nepal, recognizing the true nature of the CCP, the streets of Beijing will resonate with the sound of uprising footsteps. An unprecedented revolution could sweep across China. What the Chinese people desire is a government that belongs to the people, serves the people, and is accountable to the people. A nation that is free, fair, and transparent. Not a regime that prioritizes stability, deception, exploitation, and fear. The CCP's high-pressure stability maintenance tactics can no longer suppress the people. Citizens are awakening and resisting tyranny in various ways. The collapse of this authoritarian regime may not be far off. CCP turns students into walking zombies. Furious parent roars, our children have been completely ruined. China's education system has long been accused of being a soul-destroying machine. Teachers on the mainland have openly said that today's schools are mass-producing children with mental illness, depression, and world weariness. Recently, a furious Chinese parent was recorded shouting, our kids have been completely ruined. They're like walking zombies. Is this the talent we spend a fortune raising? A Duyin, Chinese TikTok teacher from Guangdong, with 21 years of frontline experience, teacher Zhao Jumei posted, wake up everyone, schools right now are mass-producing depression and kids who hate life. She described a typical schedule. Students arrive before 6 a.m., leave at 11 p.m., study at full intensity Monday through Saturday, and get only one day off on Sunday, yet are still given more than 20 giant exam papers for homework. A lively child who used to smile all the time no longer knows how to smile, she said. To secure university admission, Chinese children compete in an extremely harsh environment from a very young age. Staying up late to finish assignments is common, not because of laziness, but because Chinese schools assign some of the highest volumes of homework in the world. Students tackle core subjects, handicraft projects, and take-home assignments, while some parents purchase additional practice questions for extra study. This phenomenon is tied to involution in Chinese education. Since 2020, the term involution, referring to intense self-driven internal competition, has become popular internet slang in mainland China. It describes the relentless pursuit of success and the pressure of internalized competition, leading to burnout and overwork. Involution pervades Chinese society, from colleges to workplaces, and even affects toddlers just learning to speak. Another male Douyin creator said, the child psychiatry department at Beijing University Children's Hospital is packed every single day. Hundreds of kids too mentally broken to even attend school. Their hands shake when they try to write. The moment they step into school, they fall apart. He concluded, the root cause is that Keep going like this. And soon, not only children's psychiatric wards will overflow, parents' psychiatric wards will too. A female creator, teacher Yuan Yuan said, it's not just Beijing. Every city, especially this year, has children's psychiatric and psychology departments completely full. You can't even get an appointment number. Second and third tier cities are the same. A certified national level three psychological counselor on Douyin warned, I'm terrified that in 10 years, every young person in this country will be on psychiatric medication. Depression, despair, low self-worth. The numbers keep exploding. Netizens commented, this is the truth. We never used to have so many depressed kids. Now they're everywhere. Don't blame the teachers. They're just wage slaves. Ask the state how it evaluates them. They treat children like leaks to be cut over and over. One ex-user summed it up. The CCP gangster regime squeezes every drop of blood and sweat from the people, brainwashes their children to speak for the party and serve the party, then takes zero responsibility when those kids can't find jobs. What a profitable, sinister way to control the population. The evil thuggery of the CCP is on full display. It's heartbreaking that despite young adults recognizing this pressure as social competition and attempting to resist it by lying flat, this self-exploitation and loss of freedom has already spread to elementary school students and preschoolers. These children don't know that beyond studying, there are many other ways to live in this world. They can only follow adults, exhausting themselves and growing accustomed to competition from a young age. Childhood, which should be a time to experience the warmth of the world, has vanished unnoticed, replaced by the frenzy and pressure of the adult world. With China's economic downturn and worsening unemployment, many graduates find their years of study useless and their degrees worthless. Left with no options, some become full-time children or full-time grandchildren, staying home or giving up in despair. The civilizational gap between China and Taiwan in how people with disabilities are treated leaves mainland Chinese ashamed. Taiwanese people are genuinely kind and friendly. A Chinese blogger shared a personal experience that drew significant public attention. She raised the question, our country has become so powerful, so why can't we treat people with disabilities more kindly? Her story begins with her first trip to Taiwan, where she was surprised by the widespread availability of barrier-free infrastructure. For the first time, she witnessed a society where people with disabilities could use buses, trains and public spaces just like any other citizen. In contrast, she explained that in mainland China, she often faced discrimination so severe that she was afraid to leave her home. According to her account, daily situations in China reveal a major difference in societal values, not only in welfare or infrastructure. In a video that spread widely, a young woman in a wheelchair attempted to board a bus in China but was shut out by the driver twice. The first time, when she asked for help lifting her wheelchair, the driver became impatient and refused, saying it was not his responsibility. The second time, before she even reached the door, he closed it and drove away. Some passengers questioned his behavior, but the driver insisted that disabled passengers were trouble for everyone. Urban design problems were also mentioned. In many locations, stone barriers, railings or trash bins block tactile guide paths for the visually impaired. At several major railway stations, these paths are obstructed by bicycles, planters or waste containers. These paths, meant to ensure safe travel for blind individuals, are frequently unusable and force them into dangerous situations. Another example came from a video recorded by a blind man with a body camera. He tried to follow a tactile path home, but the path was repeatedly blocked or incorrectly designed. Throughout the walk, he had to ask strangers for help. Many of them were confused because they themselves did not know where the tactile path was supposed to lead. According to people with disabilities, the current support system in China is still based on state charity rather than recognition of their inherent rights as citizens. Prejudice remains widespread. Some individuals openly make comments such as, if you are disabled, stay home, or going out only bothers others. On social media, certain users argue that disabled people receive subsidies while doing nothing, claiming that this is unfair to able-bodied individuals. One online commenter responded that in a normal society, elderly people, pregnant women, blind individuals and people with disabilities are all part of the community. A wheelchair is their legs, a tactile path is their road, and the rights enjoyed by able-bodied citizens should not be denied to them. The blogger stated that constant discrimination has pushed many people with disabilities into isolation. Being refused service, scolded, or met with impatience happens so often that many stop leaving their homes. In contrast, Taiwan treats barrier-free design as a standard part of public infrastructure, allowing disabled individuals to move around and participate in society with dignity. She also described an incident during air travel. After landing, a small female ground staff member was unable to lift her from the aircraft seat to her personal wheelchair. She asked a male flight attendant for assistance, but he refused, stating that it was not part of his duties. The two parties argued over their radios for an extended time before the attendant reluctantly helped carry her a short distance. She noted that proper barrier-free systems would have prevented this situation entirely. In closing, she emphasized that events which seem unbelievable to others are everyday realities for people with disabilities in China. Shortcomings in infrastructure and attitudes have left millions effectively confined in their own homes. According to her, the gap between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait is not only political or economic, but also reflected in how each society treats its most vulnerable citizens. China's county-level economies are collapsing. 90% of counties will disappear. People vanish. Streets lie deserted. 90% of small counties are disappearing. Can you believe it? The future of China's small counties, according to accounts from many residents, is even bleaker than that of rural villages. In numerous county towns, people report that entire streets no longer have anyone walking on them. The prospect of ghost cities is becoming reality. In 2025, the economic climate has been described by locals as cold from north to south. Major cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen are still struggling through deep downturns, while small counties with weaker foundations face even harsher conditions. In many places, populations are not only failing to grow, they are steadily declining. The result is a vicious cycle. Weakened economies create fewer jobs, young people leave, and that outflow accelerates economic decay. At 12 p.m., a time when streets should be full of people having lunch, the roads were almost empty. Shopping streets that once flourished are now filled with for-rent signs. Jewelry shops, clothing stores, and cosmetics boutiques have all closed. Residents stress that this is not a remote area, but the very commercial center of the county. A similar situation has been recorded in Changsha and Taiyuan. In Taiyuan, one of the city's busiest streets was entirely deserted at 5 p.m. Dozens of storefronts had signs for lease or transfer, including small noodle shops once considered the most resilient businesses. One resident documented that on a road less than 500 meters long, four or five shops were already abandoned. The decline stems from the collapse of the real economy. Housing prices have fallen. Industries are moving away. Industrial parks are empty, and young workers are leaving for major cities. Some individuals who returned home to start businesses after years away eventually failed again. They explained that local resources were controlled by a very small group, leaving almost no opportunities for ordinary people. Analysts on the mainland note that many counties have fallen into severe economic stagnation due to a lack of pillar industries. Local consumption relies heavily on government-funded workers, such as civil servants, teachers, healthcare staff, and retirees. This structure, often called the civil servant economy, means the city's economic cycle depends almost entirely on state-salaried groups. Experts warn that this system is unsustainable because it relies on financial transfers and property revenues, both of which are declining sharply. People returning to their hometowns during holidays report visible signs of decay. Young, capable residents have left. Real estate projects that once boomed have now turned into empty blocks or abandoned towers. Many emphasize that this situation is not simply the result of online commerce, but a deeper structural issue. Collectively, the footage and testimonies from local residents across China point to a clear trend. Small counties are becoming one of the weakest links in China's economic structure. The emptiness of streets, the collapse of local commerce, and the heavy reliance on public sector consumption are pushing countless counties into an economic deadlock that may be impossible to escape. China's saturation-verbal offensive backfires. The United States stands firmly with Japan. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that after Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanai declared, a Taiwan contingency is a Japan contingency, China's consul general in Osaka, Sui Jian, posted a threat on X to behead him. According to the report, the post was approved at the highest levels and deliberately meant to test Tokyo's response. Analysts widely agree that the only person with the authority to greenlight such an extreme statement is Xi Jinping himself, who personally oversees all major foreign policy decisions. Alongside online threats, Beijing introduced a series of punitive measures, including bans on Japanese seafood, tourism restrictions, an anime ban, and the cancellation or delay of multiple events hosted by Japanese companies in China. The Chinese foreign ministry announced that Premier Li Qiang would not meet Japanese leaders during the G20 summit. These developments caused Japanese social media to erupt, with many users cheering that China's tourism ban might reduce what they viewed as poorly behaved visitors. In Japan, public support for Takaichi surged instead of falling, rising to 71%, the highest level in the post-war era. International media described Beijing's actions as wolf warrior diplomacy out of control, comparing the rhetoric to cultural revolution style abuse. Meanwhile, the economic damage was felt inside China. Travel agencies, airlines, and luxury resellers all suffered significant losses. Chinese netizens themselves began joking, if we cannot go to Japan, how are we supposed to buy toilet seat covers? China's military also escalated. All four theater commands released coordinated propaganda videos featuring warships, J-20 fighters, and missile launches, along with aggressive narration. The China Coast Guard dispatched four vessels to waters near the Diaoyu, Senkaku Islands, and a suspected Chinese drone flew between Taiwan and Japan's Yonaguni Island. On November 21st, the Chinese embassy in Japan invoked the Enemy State Clause of the UN Charter, implying that founding members of the United Nations have the right to launch direct military action against Japan without Security Council approval. These actions were met with widespread mockery online. International observers argued that the campaign appeared aimed at distracting the Chinese public from rising unemployment and a growing mortgage default crisis. A notable development came from Singapore, a country that rarely criticizes China openly. On November 19th, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong stated at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum that Southeast Asia had long chosen to put history aside in relations with Japan and expressed hope that China and Japan could do the same. The remarks were widely interpreted as a subtle warning to Beijing, especially since 99% of Singapore's trade passes through the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait, areas that would be severely affected by any conflict triggered by China's aggressive rhetoric. For many governments in the region, the greater concern is not the Japan-China dispute itself, but the possibility that Beijing's wolf-warrior diplomacy could trigger a crisis in the Taiwan Strait. The United States has reinforced this view. On November 20th, U.S. State Department Deputy Spokesperson Tommy Pigott reaffirmed that the U.S.-Japan alliance is ironclad and explicitly stated that the Senkaku Islands fall within the scope of the U.S.-Japan security treaty. A day earlier, the U.S. ambassador to Japan said Washington would stand firmly with Japan in any dispute with China and criticized portions of Beijing's reaction as absurd. Article 5 of the U.S.-Japan security treaty states that any armed attack against territories under Japanese administration will be considered a threat to both countries' peace and security, requiring coordinated action. This means that any Chinese military activity near the Senkaku Islands would immediately trigger a response from Washington. Analysts conclude that China's saturation verbal offensive has not only damaged its international image, but also revealed a deeper strategic vulnerability. With loyalty inside the People's Liberation Army weakened after Xi Jinping's anti-corruption purges, experts warn that a real conflict might slip beyond the leadership's control, posing risks not only to regional stability, but also to the stability of China's own political system.
