The problem for China is that their society is also degenerating as a result of the adoption of wild capitalism. The Chinese population is very shallow and materialistic. That is already manifesting itself in the low fertility rates (1.2 and going down despite large rural population), rampant degeneracy and "female liberation".

Xi seems to have realized the scale of the problem and that is why he is clamping down on vices and western influence. He will not succeed in his intentions, it is too late to reverse course.

China will likely see a few decades of material progress and immense power but its fall will be precipitous. All the nefarious social trends that took centuries to metastasize in the west are already present in China and will metastasize much more quickly, because their transition from a traditional society to technological modernity has been too fast and too radical.

True but China's population is so massive that they'll maintain an enormous population of 120+ iq people, literally tens of millions for the foreseeable future. And they can maintain a massive and modern industrial society for generations.

The Chinese population is very shallow and materialistic

They openly admire the Jewish mentality to the point where mainstream Chinese academics study their disproportionate influence (i.e. success) in the West.

elites in china and elsewhere all want to reduce the population. The bigger it is the more they're at risk of revolution. Every modern country has revolution in it's past and often times elites get anastasia'd. That's why they promote degeneracy and also pandemics and other things like terrorism.
