Xi in China

[Master]

Wally you are making a case that suggests the populist right have morals not present in the center or on the left. That is not true though is it?

No I was asking why Xi gets a pass

I don't think anyone is giving him a past other then fellow populist wannabe dictators in the mould of Trump himself. It sound like lefty derangement syndrome to me. And your first statement about Trump and all the other Murdoch foot soldiers having no impact on others is just bollocks.

I was wondering why so much outrage directed at trump and not Xi in so many spheres.

I think Slim answered that question in his first post.

TLDR I need condensed shit for my adhd the correct answer is china has invaded most countries social media, news and film. They, in part, direct the narrative along with companies and governments wanting access to their market. You would disappear in China if you wrote the shit about Xi like people do trump. It really is quite stunning

But don’t you find it odd, silence from the world and the media.

But seriously how sports, media and many aspects of government cow tow to China. You could dismiss what I’m saying if you wish but really it is not well published, I don’t see many threads here attacking him, I did make a few. In comparison to western leaders there is very little confrontation of Xi in the public sphere. There are numerous reasons for that but one is chinas infiltration of the west

People are outraged by Trump because he wants them to be. He is like a spoilt petulant child that will smash up all his toys just to be the sole focus of attention. He is very good at it . Xi on the other hand is a virtual dictator in a communist country, We don't expect the leader of America to act like a despot but we are not surprised when Xi does just that.


And yes Trumpism has affected everyone all over the world. His stoking of hatred and kindling of outrage has 'infiltrated' the politics of the UK and several European countries. Populist leaders have seen how easy it is to silence minorities by dominating the media. It doesn't even matter if that is negative press just make sure you ape Donny TV and you can then do what you like.
