China will restore a more authoritarian and messianic system over the next 5-10 years similar to Mao's era, driven by economic crisis, natural disasters, and popular yearning for a savior.

What Jiang said

“Once it starts, it's almost impossible to stamp out because the elite sees these messianic tendencies as a tool.”

Analysis

Jiang argues that the Chinese elite will use messianic tendencies as a political tool, and that once this energy is unleashed it becomes almost impossible to control.
