The constitutional changes were passed by China's annual sitting of the National People's Congress on Sunday.
The vote was widely regarded as a rubber-stamping exercise. Two delegates voted against the change and three abstained, out of 2,964 votes.
China has imposed a two-term limit on its president since the 1990s.
Mr Xi, however, defied the tradition of presenting a potential successor during October's Communist Party Congress.
Instead, he consolidated his political power as the party voted to enshrine his name and political ideology in the party's constitution - elevating his status to the level of its founder, Mao Zedong.
In late February, the party proposed removing term limits from China's constitution. Mr Xi was due to step down in 2023.
ugh actually i hate china they're destroying australia and canada
Elijah Anderson
Meh what the chinese are doing now in Canada and Australia isn't much different than what the anglos did 300 years ago albeit much less violent.
He's just abolishing term limits not setting himself up onto an eternal one
Charles Scott
Canada and Australia should count themselves lucky. It's either arabs/niggers (package deal) or chinks, chinks are the far better option. The real enemy is of course the politicians who betray their people.
Nathan Wood
Wow it's fucking nothing we've never had a term limit
Jacob Wilson
China is becoming fascist before us and without relying on shitty Sup Forums memes
>He really believes that a couple of thousand Mongolians who became the aristocratic minority and mostly married within the tribe managed to even dilute, much less completely eradicate the majority Han Chinese population of China I'm all for nationalism but this nip comes off as a salty retard
Connor Adams
Other cultures resorted to cannibalism out of desperation.
Non China Chinese here, can confirm. I get my student visa and soon working visa this way. From Chinese school to Chinese overlord boss, did I mentioned they don’t even pay tax?
Asher Allen
What has Xi done other than farm in the countrywide during the Cultural Revolution? At least Mao did some shit.
Noah Gonzalez
>The Xi family home was ransacked by student militants and one of Xi's sisters, Xi Heping, was killed.[22] Later, his own mother was forced to publicly denounce him as Xi was paraded before a crowd as an enemy of the revolution. Xi was aged 15 when his father was imprisoned in 1968 during the Cultural Revolution; Xi would not see his father again until 1972. what the fuck
Jonathan Roberts
A lot of people just now realizing PRC is not a democracy.
Hunter Campbell
>destroying
What do you mean? Australia, Canada and the US are part of China and traditionally own by CHINKS.
Ethan Clark
>Meh what the chinese are doing now in Canada and Australia isn't much different than what the anglos did 300 years ago albeit much less violent.
What difference does that make? That was 300 years ago, this is now.
Owen Barnes
Well chinks are technically legitimate in the americas since native americans came from east asia
Robert Roberts
>Implying you'd abolish term limits without a plan to stay in power forever
William Gomez
Well democracy had a good run, but the future is now about single party totalitarian regimes going by Russia and China.
Henry Perez
I'd abolish term limits period because 5-10 years is actually a pretty short time when it comes to ruling a country
I'm laffin if you think european/american bipartisanship isn't actually a single party system defending the same interests on both sides with a different rhethoric to attract retards.
Ian Flores
The eternal time - "ruleability" dichotomy, my frog neighbour. Also, the Chinese have their very own ruling system, mixing totalitarianism with the openess that characterizes democratic countries. A combo that only works there in China and that will cause China's future hegemony over the world. Democracy just failed
Hudson James
He infiltrated the party and gathered power to have his revenge on commies.
Xi helicopter rides incoming. Brace for return of Imperial China
>superior power moving into to backwards tribal area vs. >extremely wealthy countries selling off all their land to corrupt Party leaders from a shithole where people eat gutter oil Big difference!
Carter Rivera
You don't actually need democracy if you have an actually good leader though. If one appears it would be a shame if they only ruled for 4 years.
Zachary Wilson
He'll yeah
Ryan Harris
Remember people. It's Chinese style censorship, AI and authoritarian control
It infuriates me that so many people are scared of the nuclear boogey man around here. Almost anyone over 30 seems to be convinced that a nuclear power plant is gonna go boom any minute an destroy the continent.
We have some of the most stable land mass in the world and huge uninhabitable zones wuth so little wildlife you could hear a pin drop. We are the fucking perfect spot for this energy but people would rather use shitty coal and have blackouts every weekend.
Caleb Morgan
Kekkonen, our president from -56 to -82. Still sorely missed.
What do you mean, my Chinese landlord and boss are both super nice
Cameron Wood
You need someone with a clearly defined vision at the helm, otherwise you devolve into pure fuckery like the West. Democracy just doesn't work long term.
