I’m not claiming that Xi is some hero.
But how do you know it’s not an anti-corruption sweep? Corrupt leaders deserve to be disappeared forever. Just like it should also happen to billionaires.
You can doubt the motives, but not the action.
That is what corruption is. He grew out of the princelings and has to tactically fight them so he isn’t overthrown himself.
My thoughts about the military purges is that they’re a part of the fight against corruption.
With Xi being in his 70s it makes sense for him to also purge corruption from the army if he wants to avoid the state from falling into corrupt hands again like they have during Xiaoping’s rule and his successors.
It’s ridiculous that I’m downvoted by brigadiers for sharing a sensible explanation.
Nah Lemmy has got bots too. I’m sure there’s instances without. But any general instance with any communities around news or politics will have bots.
For some games and websites I have to turn it off yeah. Or at least switch the server to one that isn’t blocked.
It’s a shame that websites are allowed to track and block VPNs.
Never use VPN add-ons for your browser. Unless you get them along with your paid VPN. You should run your entire network through the VPN, not just a browser.
The German foreign minister is an absolute embarrassment.
He wasn’t in power decades ago.
