Comment on Absolutely nothing happened June 1989

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.
