I’ve been seeing the same article here rehashed since I was in elementary school over 20 years ago.

I trust CCP statistics as much as I trust western reports about China. Which is to say, not at all.

China probably isn’t as rich or powerful as it projects, but it’s also clearly not as weak and fragile as American media has been hoping all these decades.

That's unwise, you can call the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) up and ask them how they arrived at their numbers. In the UK you can go on field trips with the Office of National Statistics (ONS) to watch them measure inflation. It's materially different.
