This is no secret. Maybe have a little skepticism towards your favored country’s claims that any opposition to the government is bigotry towards the people? They use that to maintain control over the population.
Oh? And what about the party’s practice of disappearing execs when a company’s done something to displease the party? Are other governments not right to be afraid when the CPC exercises that type of control?
Calling Xi Jinping a clown is enough to get arrested. Other times, those corruption allegations are either selectively enforced or made up. It can be hard to tell because China has poor rule of law. That’s why Hong Kong had long played an outsized role in the Chinese economy. It is part of the Chinese economy, but before the recent “security” law it had very strong rule of law. And before you misinterpret me, strong rule of law means that the people are governed by clear, well defined laws instead of by either fiat or laws that can be flexed to target damn near anyone.
