I don't think the "powers that are" would care much about what this dude does, they probably have a lot on their plate already.

Have you seen what China did to all their farmers in the last few decades?
I’m not too lazy to search but is there something specific?

They are basically building urban apartments and trying to entice them to move.
A Japanese director made a documentary about one of the poorest regions in China.

There are English subtitles.
I watched your link, it is one-sided. Who knows if there is real opposition. Sure, this video is not showing any behaviour worth criticizing. Maybe it is true, and everybody really does love moving to the city. But just given the fact that it comes from a region with no free press, I can't trust them on that.

I am alluding to the forced migration to city life (including malls to spend money at). This was simultaneously done while razing the villages and all of their history, interestingly, China as we know it, with all of their history erasing going on, is only about 70 years old.
