Even by western sources, strikes are falling. You keep framing them as “illegal strikes,” and in general seem content on just parroting anti-China viewpoints. If they are striking, it’s because China is bad, if they aren’t, it’s because they aren’t allowed to, etc etc. It’s as Michael Parenti puts it, a “non-falsifiable orthodoxy.”
My point from the beginning is that China does have some strikes, but the context of said strikes is different from capitalist countries and as such trying to use “number of strikes” as a state of worker well-being is poor logic. The numbers do back broad support for China and for socialism, which is why I’ve shared them.
Im not seeing what you are saying represented in the link you provided.
Groups like CLB are saying that the strikes they are tracking are illegal strikes because the official unions are not acts on the demands of their members. Basically the sole source ive found and that you have shared. We seem to have no data to point that says otherwise.
The steelman version of what you present to me is that China has no need for strikes and that all reporting on strikes is false. Implying every group of workers in China are content to live and die in service to States ambitions as all interpersonal conflict between employer and employees is mediated without fail in some other system besides collective barganing and worker’s demostrations of solidarity.
Am i to believe that AND that China a safe place for foreign investment as is also claimed by the CCP? And if so, how?

No, you’re again mischaracterizing my point. I stated clearly my beliefs in the last comment, and now you’re sealioning.
