useful idiot

I’ve got to say it: the CCP is the best car salesman in the world. Why do I say that?

Think about America’s top car salesmen. They can sell thousands of cars in different colors, styles, engines, brands, and sizes. After the sale, they still have to offer customer service, keep buyers happy, and build loyalty.

But the CCP? Totally different story.

Everybody knows the Ford Model T was one of the best-selling cars in history. Sure, it came in different horsepower, seating, fuel efficiency, and mileage options, but at the end of the day, it was still just a variation of the same Model T.

The CCP’s “car salesmen” only sell one kind of car: the same black Model T. Same paint job, same engine, same handling, same everything. Nothing but copy-paste. Yet somehow, they’ve managed to “sell” this invisible Model T to over a billion people—without ever worrying about customer complaints or service quality.

And if anyone dares to complain? The CCP only has to do one thing: make people too afraid to speak up. Problem solved. The fault never lies with the salesman.

What’s crazier is that you can’t even see this Model T. Forget about driving it around. It’s not a real car—it’s an ideology. You can only “drive” it in your head, and if you resist, you might just end up in a labor camp.

When it comes to manipulating human nature, the CCP leaves Orwell’s “Big Brother” in the dust. Maybe the Soviets forgot to translate The Art of War into Russian, because Beijing plays the game way better.

The CCP’s genius is selling billions of people an invisible car—a belief system. That’s something Western capitalists, no matter how “evil,” have never pulled off. Westerners sell you actual products you can touch. The CCP sells you ideology—stuff only your “mind’s eye” can see—and billions still buy it. That makes them the ultimate salesmen of ideas, the kind even Elvis’s vampire manager would bow down to.

Chiang Kai-shek may have been a trained general, but it was Mao—who didn’t even like fried rice—who really mastered The Art of War. Mao knew how to win without fighting, while Chiang never truly understood it.

Both the Nationalists and Communists were Soviet-trained, but the KMT’s propaganda machine was child’s play compared to the CCP’s. To Moscow, the KMT was just a blood donor to fatten up the CCP, so the Communists could later devour them.

Mao’s idol was basically Hong Xiuquan. Hong’s peasant movement was no less powerful than Zhu Yuanzhang’s; the only difference was their education level—like kindergarten versus university. Both Hong and Mao understood the explosive power of mixing religion with politics. And Mao, as a self-proclaimed atheist overlord, weaponized religious conflicts and rivalries to crush Chiang.

The ultimate strategy of The Art of War is to win without ever deploying troops. Mao figured: if I absolutely have to eat raw meat, why not trick my enemy into eating it instead? Let them suffer the stomachache, while I save my strength.

So he flipped enemy soldiers, armed them with their own weapons, and let them devour what was left of the Nationalist army. Enemy against enemy. Fifth Column agents broke down the KMT from within, whispering to soldiers that defecting to the CCP would be better than dying for Chiang. And when those defected troops won battles, the CCP took all the credit.

That’s why, instead of wasting time trying to “sell” unification to Taiwan with endless slogans about war or peace, the CCP just plants a Fifth Column inside the island. Their job? Constantly tell Taiwanese workers how miserable their lives are: under the DPP’s “tyranny,” people live in poverty and despair, desperate for salvation from Beijing’s “great leader.”

They don’t need to push war or peace. They just need to mess with people’s heads. Blur the lines between victim and aggressor, turn the accused into the accuser, make everyone confused about who the real enemy is. Once 23 million Taiwanese believe “Taiwanese only hurt other Taiwanese,” they’ll start thinking: maybe it’s better to be ruled by outsiders. Living in a labor camp with food and shelter might seem more “dignified” than slaving away to pay off a 35-year mortgage.

If 87% of Taiwanese start supporting “labor camps over mortgages,” then Taiwan’s allies—especially Uncle Sam—will have no choice but to back away. If the U.S. interferes, Beijing will scream “foreign interference in China’s internal affairs.” Washington will be stuck, watching Taiwan slip away, while facing China’s missiles, carriers, and nukes.

And let’s be real: which ally would bankroll $1 billion in weapons, only to watch their partner hand those weapons straight to their common enemy? Not even Putin or Kim Jong-un would be that dumb.

If Taiwan gives up on itself, no ally will stick around. Allies only support partners who show they’re willing to fight for themselves. Otherwise, Beijing just sits under a tree, waiting for the “white rabbit” to run headfirst into it.

And once the CCP takes over, well… I guess I’ll be stuck finding a “stable job” at a labor camp crematorium—burning what’s left of my fellow islanders.

Sigh. Hopefully it never comes to that. Honestly, I’d rather line up at NTU Hospital for an “instant euthanasia appointment” than spend my life working in a Taiwanese labor camp.

If someone wishes to become part of the Chinese Communist Party’s “Fifth Column” in Taiwan, it does not necessarily require expertise in intelligence gathering, eloquence, or even an antisocial personality. Even those who dislike certain political factions or figures need not worry. At the most basic level, being part of this “Fifth Column” only requires one very simple task—something that even the most ordinary person can do:

Keep Taiwan’s social aesthetics and public image in a state of sloppiness, apathy, and neglect. By living passively, idly, and irresponsibly, one creates an impression of a society that invites disdain and contempt. In doing so, Taiwan’s cultural and social image is gradually destroyed, convincing both local citizens and foreign visitors that “Taiwan is hopeless.” This, in turn, nurtures the idea that Taiwan might as well be handed over to China, since the people themselves appear to have already given up.

Such a state of decay also persuades external powers that any effort to help Taiwan is pointless—no matter the investment, it would only end in disappointment, wasted resources, and even backlash.

From a strategic perspective, this is a secondary means to achieve the ultimate objective. Direct military unification of Taiwan is considered the least desirable option. As ancient military strategy teaches: war is merely a smokescreen—the true collapse occurs when morale, vigilance, defense, and the ability to distinguish friend from foe all disintegrate.

This explains why larger corporations fear reputational damage so deeply: once their public image is compromised, they will sever ties, expel controversial individuals, or suppress whistleblowers to preserve themselves. Applied to a nation, the effect is even more severe: a country with a ruined social image, no matter how powerful its weapons, will be shunned and distrusted by others, who would rather push it toward its enemies.

When Taiwanese people start to believe that “Taiwanese only oppress other Taiwanese,” they effectively consent to being manipulated by Beijing. This is the strategy of “using Chinese against Chinese, using Taiwanese against Taiwan.” By exploiting Taiwan’s democracy and freedom of speech, the Fifth Column works to degrade local culture while glorifying China’s autocratic system, gradually hypnotizing the population into believing that authoritarianism is superior to democracy.

This is the essence of the “boiling frog” strategy—using legal frameworks to carry out fundamentally illegal purposes.
