China's Chernobyl?
Three Gorges Dam will likely fail catastrophically at some point in the near future. I wonder if that will be the CCP death nell

People aren't allowed to visit stores, and delivery services are often sold out there.
So people have been trying to by bulk straight from suppliers, then bartering with neighbors.
People in Shanghai took desperate measures to avoid going hungry as a sweeping lockdown confined millions of people to their homes amid dwindling supplies.
The Chinese city of 26 million has been hit by intermittent shortages during the lockdown, which began on March 28 but has been extended.
The lockdown, much harsher than those seen in Europe or North America, precluded people from leaving their homes to buy groceries, and left delivery services unable to cope.
The government in Shanghai made some efforts to give people food directly, but many found the deliveries were unreliable or insufficient.
Officials said the lockdown would ease on April 5, but it was then extended indefinitely, exacerbating food supply problems, The Guardian reported.
The city has seen record numbers of cases in its latest Omicron wave, after having largely avoided the pandemic through most of 2020 and 2021. Monday was the 10th straight day of record new case numbers, according to the South China Morning Post.
