    and this is almost certainly the video he is referring to,

    I literally saw that on /r/interestingasfuck, reddit's premier anti-China/NK/Russia propaganda sub, like two days ago, lmao

    my takeaway was "wow that was a really well coordinated demolition I don't think America could even do that"

      There are a couple more demolitions of smaller projects but a cursory glance at each shows that its mostly real estate capitalists cutting corners. The difference is the CPC doesn't want a Grenfel Tower situation to happen, so they notice some things awry where they were lied to at some point and immediately order demolition and corruption charges. And of course in a country of 1.4 billion, 50 or so demolitions in a montage isn't really that much going on...
