Daniel Hill
World domination

several btw 1950s to 1970s if conspiracy theories are taken accounts.
e.g. Lin Biao, vice chairman of CCP during Mao's time and died in air crash
Mao Anying, Mao's son, killed in Korean war
Juan Clark
but is he not a stable leader? him being assassinated would be a huge deal but i partly wouldnt be surprised because of his anti corruption campaign

Chinese diaspora tell me that his "anti corruption" is a farce and it's basically "let me put my guys in charge of being corrupt rather than yours(local crime sydicates) but let's continue corruption anyway"
Eli Johnson
To die in office. He made many enemies in his anti-corruption drive. If some other faction takes power after his retirement, he would be at their mercy.

Xi is good at eliminating his political opponents, which makes him appear to be a "stable" leader
Jayden Garcia

Asher Ramirez
In this case, anti-graft means "anti-graft taken by my political opponents".
Daniel Allen
Wonder if western society could trend towards a non-democratic rule too.
Austin Moore
it's all really the same
they are trying to institute an online bureaucracy of all movement of money in china by getting rid of physical money to impose a broad base tax to enrich themselves
in the guise of fighting inequality
Angel Sullivan
Or maybe it is both.
>Xi took office in 2012-2013 as an energetic 59-year-old married to a glamorous popular singer. He immediately announced a major campaign to fight corruption, promising to snare both “tigers and flies”—the big fish and the little fish. Bringing down tigers is good press: everyone loves watching bricks of cash being hauled out of the home of some corrupt official. And swatting flies is even better politics.
>Since Xi took office, petty corruption has fallen dramatically in China. Roughly one-quarter of Chinese people reported paying a bribe to access government services in 2016, according to Transparency International’s Global Corruption Barometer survey. That may sound like a lot, but it’s the third-best result in developing Asia, placing China just behind Malaysia and way ahead of India.

But hey, much easier to just see everything as some nefarious conspiracy.
Brandon Miller
Where is "both", there? The other American was talking about corruption from the other faction of elite, not poorfag bribes.
Just like in the US, the elite of China are not all buddies. They have their factions. The ruling party is from one faction and they of course tolerate their own corruption more than they tolerate corruption from the others.
