I'll be honest, I don't see a future where ANY country might be a superpower anymore, I've listed the issues China has so I'll list others on why they can't make it:
US: is going to hit a decline, only question is how far, after which they'll be a pull back and withdraw of having forces globally
Russia: too far behind technologically and the mafia like rule isn't helping to close that gap
Europe: already hit decline, banking on past prestige for influence
India: internal issues plus nuclear rivalry with neighbour stops an expansion effort
Middle east: no unifying cause
South America: corruption and instability
I might put forward a corporation control future but even they've been tainted by ideology, I think we'll just have a global decline across the board followed by a massive reconstruction under a completely new order, as the current NWO guys are going to fail.
They are going to make Tiananmen Square look like a joke.
I don't think they can do that at this point.
There's a camera in every pocket and the memory cards are so small that they can be hidden literally anywhere. Even if they shut down the entire country's internet, there's NO suppressing the pictures and videos that would be taken.
Look at Hong Kong for how this is going to play out. Rubber bullets, beanbags, tear gas, lots of arrests over weeks and weeks until the protesters get tired and remember they have to eat and sleep and pay bills.
It is beyond horrific what the CCP is about to do to quell dissent.
They are going to make Tiananmen Square look like a joke.
The only remotely positive thing that will come from this is that a future Chinese invasion of Taiwan will most likely fail.
Any Chinese citizen who is not a drone is about to be purged so there goes all hope for their country's hope of a global hegemony.
