When nation building projects become synonymous with infrastructure development, the Chinese party-state apparatus must be feeling a tad hurt over the collapse of Hongqi Bridge in Sichuan.

But that is the reality of the voting public: young women and young men are more politically polarized. I’m not surprised that the political divisions in this country are based on the fault lines of gender, generation and class.

I’m gonna be a little contrarian about the discourse surrounding the CPC and Pierre Poilievre. To pundits, PCs, basically the upper class PP is a disaster. But to his base that’s not the case. And I think that split is class-based

A few years ago, Hongkonger youths took to the streets to demand democratic reforms. This was a picture of Chinese University in 2019 (Citizen news, HKFP)
Ever wondered what drove a whole generation of youths to risk their lives to protest?
