      Wow, you actually can use your brain. That was spectacular, you should do this more often, instead of what you did back there.

      Nah, China kills it’s own people because the ruler can’t ever tolerate handing power to anyone else.

      Nice try tho 🤡

            Well he’s incredibly popular, so probably quite long unless he starts fucking up or gets coup’d by capitalists in the party ala Yeltsin.

            Unlike Hu Jintao’s path, he isn’t struggling to manage the contradictions between the interests of the national bourgeoisie against those of the working class.

                I’d examine why you think that’s how China works, but we’re at conspiracy-theory level nonsense where you’ll just keep making up shit to justify your original position.

                Instead lets stay on solid ground: What policies or actions has Xi Jinping taken that you feel hurt his popularity? (Or would have, if everyone in China wasn’t afraid to say so for fear of getting disappeared)

                  Right, ministers just disappear but that’s just shit that happens… Did you also know that in Russia suicide by defenestration is just what people do after criticizing Putin?

                  The social credit score system is pretty effective at ensuring everyone says they like Xi.

                  Happiness is mandatory.

                    The “social credit score system” is largely made-up. There is a credit system, but it mostly targets businesses, meanwhile the US has a far more impactful credit score system. The PRC isn’t perfect, but the dystopian nightmare the West portrays it as is largely projection.
