Party school professor says local officials most desire “ruling the country according to law” Scholars: On the eve of great changes

A professor at the Provincial Party School of the Communist Party of China recently stated that local officials at all levels in the western part of the Communist Party of China expressed that their greatest hope is to "rule the country according to law," triggering a heated discussion on the Internet. Experts analyze that this shows that the current Chinese Communist regime has completely lost its legitimacy and is approaching the critical point of disintegration.
Recently, on the mainland Weibo platform, a screenshot of a Weibo post was widely forwarded. Screenshots show that the Weibo account "Poet Su Xiaozhai" posted on 5 December 2023 that he recently chatted with a professor at a provincial party school in the eastern coastal region. The professor said that when he taught classes for CCP officials at all levels, the most shocking thing was this year, when he was teaching a class for municipal party committee secretaries in the western region, he asked these municipal party committee secretaries what they were suffering from most and what they most wanted to improve. The officials almost said four words in unison, "ruling the country according to law."
The professor said that the common voice of prefecture-level city secretaries is: "Rule the country according to law."

This news sparked a heated discussion on Weibo: "The implication is that the country is not governed according to law today?"
Some people expressed doubts: "Your friend missed the last six words: I am talking about the law!", but some people think it may be true: "I believe it is true, because without the rule of law, no one is safe. "
The picture has now been deleted, and some Weibo bloggers who forwarded it have received warnings, while others have been banned for three days.
One of the bloggers said that he had been warned. He also questioned, "In the past few years, in the fight against corruption, there have been many corrupt elements, one after another, one after another. Are these guys bad people to begin with, or are they just officials?" What if they became bad people later? If they were originally bad people, we should study how these bad people became officials. If they became bad people after becoming officials, we should study how power turned them into bad people."

CCP officials do not have good jobs
In response to this phenomenon, Wu Shaoping, a former mainland human rights lawyer, told New Tang Dynasty that this shows that under Xi Jinping’s rule, not only “the people are having a hard time making a living,” but also “the officials are having a hard time making a living.” The rule of law requires the supremacy of the law and the exercise of power in accordance with the law. However, the CCP is currently completely based on the will of the leadership. Power is greater than the law, and the Party is greater than the law. The top leaders of the CCP exercise power arbitrarily and haphazardly.
Wu Shaoping introduced that the law is deterministic and predictable. For the general public, the predictability of the law allows people to predict their own behavior and then make behavioral choices based on their judgment.
This is especially true for officials within the CCP. When they manage a local economy and society, they also need to make predictions and distinguish whether what they are doing is right or wrong.
Now, under the rule of Xi Jinping, the CCP’s policies change more frequently day and night, power controls the law, and social operations are uncertain, all based on the preferences of the leaders. What the leaders think today may change tomorrow. There are no rules to follow, and there is no certainty. Who knows? I don’t know if what I did today is right or wrong, or whether it is legal. Even if it is legal, it is wrong if the leader does not like it. Therefore, the entire society will have no rules, but will be based on the rules of the leader. Act according to personal will and preference.
Current affairs commentator Wang He also told NTDTV that Xi Jinping's use of his personal will to interfere in everything has had a great impact on the entire society and the entire bureaucracy. For example, after the outbreak of the covid epidemic, Xi Jinping has always said that the three-year dynamic clearing must be strictly implemented. However, at the end of 2022, overnight, there was a sudden U-turn. It is impossible for any country's policy to operate this way.
Wang He pointed out that the CCP’s policies at the top were either left or right, tight or loose, both necessary and necessary. Officials at the lower levels were at a loss as to what to do and were dissatisfied. Xi eliminated other factions and led everyone into the pit. Forced by high pressure from the top, The official chose to lie down, "If you don't tell me, I won't move. If you tell me, I will move. When I move, I will deliberately mess up things and watch Xi Jinping's jokes." He said that now within the CCP, Xi Jinping has become the focus of all social conflicts.
Wu Shaoping believes that "both the people and the officials in the officialdom can realize that if this continues, society will fall into chaos and discomfort, and it will become more and more chaotic and abnormal."

China is on the eve of great change
Lawyer Wu Shaoping said that the leader of the Chinese Communist Party also talks about "ruling the country according to law" all day long. However, in a totalitarian system like the CCP, the "ruling the country according to law" is "selling sheep's heads to dog meat" and is not universal in the world. As for the rule of law, it is impossible for the CCP to truly engage in "ruling the country according to law." This is determined by the totalitarian nature of the CCP. If the "rule of law" expected by these local officials is still the CCP's false rule of law, it will have no effect. If China wants to achieve true rule of law, the CCP must step down and change the system.
Wang He said that although CCP officials are controlled by the CCP’s party culture, some people’s nature still exists. The rule of law is the crystallization of human civilization in modern times. If a country wants to develop, it must implement the rule of law. The rule of law requires that state power and political parties must operate under the legal system. It does not mean using the law to rule others, but public power must also abide by the law.
However, the current problem is that the CCP authorities do whatever they want, change orders day by day, and have no restrictions on their power. This approach distorts human nature, is distorted, and deviates from human political civilization.
Wang He said that the CCP bureaucracy felt internally that it could not survive, and officials were having a hard time. The reality forced them to reflect.
Wang He analyzed that prefecture-level officials have all called for "ruling the country according to law," which shows that within the CCP, there is only a small group of people who defend the CCP to the death. Very few people, which shows that the CCP regime has completely lost its legitimacy. Only a few still want to protect the party for the sake of power. The majority of local CCP officials actually already hate the CCP.
Wang He said that this shows that China has reached the eve of a sudden change and is close to the critical point. The CCP regime will collapse at a push.

The child has "white lungs" and still refuses to take leave. Chinese-style parenting is causing controversy
Reporter : Zhu Ying / Editor : Lin Qing / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2023/12/12/a103833652.html / Image : On 23 November 2023, in an overcrowded children's hospital in Beijing, while the children were receiving infusion treatment in the corridor, a parent (1 from the right) was sitting beside the child's bed, still guiding the sick child to do his homework.

Respiratory diseases caused by covid and other diseases are causing large-scale outbreaks among minors in mainland China. A few days ago, some parents were unwilling to ask for leave for their children to be hospitalized for fear of delaying their homework when their children had serious lung infections and their lung lobes turned white. This once again aroused public concern and reflection on this extreme phenomenon.
According to a report by the Chinese media "Ningbo Evening News" on 11 December 2023,, Li Zhifei, director of pediatrics at the Bund Campus of the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University, recently disclosed in an interview with the media that when the hospital received patients with respiratory diseases, she found that many parents of students still allowed children to continue going to school even though the child was already sick and had a high fever. She said that as a doctor, what she does most now is to advise parents to let their children rest more.
Li Zhifei said that on the day of the interview, she saw a girl who was in the first grade of junior high school. She had a low-grade fever a week ago and was diagnosed with mycoplasma infection. The CT image showed that the child's lung lobes were white. She suggested that the child be hospitalized for treatment. Yun's mother was very hesitant, saying she was worried that being hospitalized would delay her studies.
According to the doctor's observation, parents in upper primary school and junior high schools, especially, are "worried that their children will fall behind in their homework." Some children have a fever of over 39 degrees Celsius, but parents still say, "Take some fever-reducing medicine and go back to class."
After the above-mentioned phenomenon was reported by the media, it aroused widespread public attention.
The online media "Jimu News" issued a short comment on this phenomenon that day, saying, "No matter how you look at it, the methods and ideas are too extreme. The children have already contracted pneumonia, and their lives may be endangered if they are not careful, but the parents only focus on studying and just want their children to do homework. It is really putting the cart before the horse and appearing too 'hard-hearted'."
The article also commented that after seeing a phenomenon like this, "I didn’t feel moved, I just felt horrified that children today are really suffering. They can’t even rest when they are sick. Is it necessary to be so busy?”
In fact, this type of parent is not alone. Photos posted on the Internet earlier showed that a hospital had opened a "children's infusion learning area", where a whole row of primary school students were filling infusion bottles with their left hands and doing homework with their right hands. "
"Southern Metropolis Daily" also commented in an article on the 12th that in the above-mentioned extreme cases, not only was the child's "lungs turned white" but he was reluctant to ask for leave and was hospitalized. "Even if the child was finally hospitalized and received treatment, who can guarantee that? Can the children in the ward really relax and recuperate?"
On social media, Chinese netizens are also discussing this.
Some netizens complained in a post: "We (the children) were infected with mycoplasma in class and took a week off. When we got to school, the teacher said that others would go to school within three days at most. There were also some who insisted on going to school even if they had a low fever. My son was the most pretentious. , please take so long.”
Some netizens commented: "Is this a parent problem? It's obviously an education problem. Who doesn't feel sorry for their children? Who doesn't want their children to have a good rest? But it's really hard to make up for the homework you missed."
Some netizens lamented: "It's the same with people who work. They don't dare to ask for leave when they're sick."

The European Union counts the CCP’s human rights abuses in the human rights calendar and Weibo dares not delete them
Editor : Li Chengyu / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2023/12/12/a103833613.html / Image : The picture shows the official Weibo account of the EU Delegation to China "EU in China". (webpage Screenshot)
10 December is International Human Rights Day. On the same day, the official Weibo account of the European Union Delegation to China, "European Union in China," published a long article listing all the evil deeds of human rights violations committed by the Chinese Communist Party. The Weibo administrator did not delete the post.
This blog post started by mentioning the significance of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Human Rights Day, and then the topic turned to the human rights situation in China. After a few pleasantries, he began to criticize the CCP’s “intentional and systematic violation” of “citizens’ political rights.”
The blog post said, "The EU reiterates its concern about the very serious human rights situation in China and urges China to abide by its obligations under domestic law, including its own constitution, and international law, and respect, protect and fulfill the human rights of all people."
Subsequently, the article began to enumerate the various human rights violations committed by the CCP, including the persecution of ethnic minorities in Xinjiang and Tibet as well as human rights defenders, media workers, citizen journalists, and intellectuals, suppression of freedom of speech and freedom of access to information, and deprivation of freedom and democracy in Hong Kong, cross-border suppression of dissidents, etc.
The blog post mentioned that the EU’s serious concerns about human rights in Xinjiang include large-scale arbitrary detention, widespread surveillance, tracking and restrictive measures, forced labor, torture, forced abortion and sterilization, family planning and family separation policies, and gender-based violence .
The blog post also states that Chinese rights defenders, journalists and dissidents are subject to harassment, intimidation and surveillance, and are subject to exit bans, house arrest, torture and ill-treatment, unlawful detention, sentencing and enforced disappearance (including through designated locations that constitute torture and ill-treatment) the threat of residential surveillance).
The blog post named more than 30 people, including Pastor Cao Sanqiang, Chang Weiping, Chen Yunfei, Cheng Yuan, Ding Jiaxi, and Gao Zhisheng, urging the CCP to release them immediately and unconditionally.
The article also criticized the CCP for censoring, intimidating and monitoring journalists and media workers. Foreign journalists and media workers in China continue to face harassment, intimidation, arbitrary detention, visa restrictions, surveillance and other issues.
The blog post concludes by saying, “By commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the European Union reaffirms its commitment to the full realization of human rights. The simple idea enshrined in the Declaration that rights are not given but belong to everyone continues to this day. It is still having an undisputed impact in the EU, China and around the world."
As of 12 December 2023, this blog post has not been deleted, but it has been suppressed by means of traffic restrictions and other means. The blog post currently has 42,000 likes, 2,825 retweets and 6,623 comments.
The two most popular comments at the end of the blog post are one with the two words "thank you" and a tearful emoji, and the other with two thumbs up emoticons. These two comments received 3144 and 1290 likes respectively.

The dozen or so "hot messages" that followed were almost all refutations of EU blog posts, and were suspected to have been "page washed" by the CCP's cyber army.
However, a review of the latest comments on the blog post revealed that most of them still express support for the EU. Many Chinese netizens ridiculed Weibo for not deleting the post in their comments: "Why haven't you deleted the post and banned the account?" "I can't believe this Weibo is still there" "Only the EU can issue this without banning the account" "This, the relevant departments are not doing enough Ah, hahaha!" "Weibo is stupid. It doesn't matter if we delete it, or if we don't delete it. We can only limit the flow. Now you can't even search for 'European Union in China'."

Kathy Chau said she had low platelets
In fact, it has been reported since 1998 that Kathy Chau had to stop work and recuperate due to suffering from lupus erythematosus, and she almost disappeared from the Hong Kong entertainment industry. In recent years, she has shifted her career focus to mainland China. In 2021, she posted a video of taking the covi vaccine in Beijing on social platforms. At that time, some netizens left messages questioning: "Sister Zhou, don't you have an immune system disease? Can you get the COVID-19 vaccine?" She replied: "Thank you, I am not sick, please don't believe the rumours." Afterwards, she was asked about this on the show and emphasized that she did not have lupus erythematosus, but low platelets.
Data show that lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease that can damage various organs in the body, especially the skin, joints, blood, kidneys and central nervous system. The patient's immune system is disrupted and no longer protects the body from bacteria and viruses, but instead attacks its own tissues. The "Chinese Communist Party virus" (covid virus) is precisely the best at destroying the human immune system.

The Hong Kong government plans to split up the cultural museum, and Hong Kong people jointly call for saving local culture

The Hong Kong government plans to spin off the Hong Kong Heritage Museum. Outsiders believe that the Hong Kong government took the opportunity to remove the cultural collections from the museum, and its real purpose was to deprive Hong Kong people of their identity. To this end, Hong Kong people launched a joint petition to condemn the Hong Kong government's disguised "killing of embassy" and called for the protection of Hong Kong's local culture.
It is reported that in the name of "promoting patriotic education", the Hong Kong government will transform the current Science Museum in the city center into the so-called "National Development Achievement Museum", and at the same time split the collections of the Cultural Museum in Shatin to other museums, and then rebuilt the Science Museum on the current site of the Cultural Museum.
In response to this plan, a group of Hong Kong cultural workers and artists launched a joint signature, condemning the Hong Kong government's above-mentioned plan as equivalent to the "indiscriminate killing" of cultural museums. It may lead to the loss of a large number of important Hong Kong cultural archives and artworks, and is detrimental to the preservation of Hong Kong's cultural heritage. pose a serious threat.
The co-signers hope to obtain 5,000 signatures from Hong Kong people by next Monday (December 18) and send a letter to the Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism of Hong Kong, Mr Yang Yun-hung, urging the Hong Kong government to abandon the plan to relocate the Science Museum and disband the Hong Kong Heritage Museum.
Kwok Chi-kin, a former Hong Kong district councilor who lives in exile in the UK, participated in this joint signing. In an interview with foreign media, he said that Hong Kong’s popular culture in the 1980s and 1990s had an impact on many other regions, enhancing the identity and identity of Hong Kong people. value, and the influence of Hong Kong pop culture on mainland China continues to this day. "But the Hong Kong government's style makes people worry that if the cultural museum is removed, these exhibits may be digitized or even lost in the future."
Kwok Chi-kin believes that unless the Hong Kong government changes its original intention, Hong Kong's existing cultural heritage will face a huge threat.

Loretta Lau, the founder of Ngo Dei, a Hong Kong art group that initiated the joint signature, said in an interview with "Chasing News" on the 12th that she hopes to make a last-ditch effort to save Hong Kong's local culture. She admitted that the signature itself has lost its role in the post-National Security Law era. She knew from the beginning that doing such a thing was "not about the number of people, but about the posture."
Liu Huiting mentioned that in recent years, the Hong Kong government has repeatedly destroyed local culture in the name of "national security", including arbitrarily destroying books in public libraries; the "Pillars of National Memorial", which are regarded as the last important symbols of the "June 4th Movement", have stood for many years. Public sculptures have also been "disappeared"; some books that have little to do with politics or that tell the story of colonial history have been removed from the shelves. She said that "everything can become very sensitive" in Hong Kong now, and it is obvious that the Hong Kong government wants to deprive Hong Kong people of their identity or shared memories.
She said: "In this joint signature, we hope that Hong Kong people will understand their remaining cultural rights and sign together to let the Hong Kong government know that they cannot cover the sky with just one hand!"
Artist Huang Guocai, who has exhibited works at the Heritage Museum, said that Hong Kong opened as a port as early as 1841, and the so-called "New China" has not yet been born, let alone the Communist Party of China? The things collected in the Hong Kong Heritage Museum are "the history that defines Hong Kong" and are the authentic local culture of Hong Kong.
He said that the Hong Kong government is just looking for excuses to disperse the cultural center's exhibits to different museums for storage, but the outside world does not know where those items will be sent, nor whether they will continue to be displayed in the future.
He said that the "Killing embassy" operation carried out by the Hong Kong government and the Chinese Communist regime is close to "Taliban-style destruction" and is a top-down ideological transformation by the Chinese Communist Party. The situation is as serious as cultural genocide in Xinjiang.
Huang Guocai emphasized that the entire China (the Chinese Communist regime) cannot correctly commemorate the history of the "June 4th" incident. Only Hong Kong can preserve some cultural relics related to the "June 4th" and publicly display them for education. In the future, Hong Kong’s real culture will inevitably be massacred by the CCP, and official history cannot exist and will definitely be annihilated. Therefore, Hong Kong's cultural treasures, especially historical relics related to the democratic struggle, should be temporarily evacuated and placed overseas, waiting for the day when Hong Kong is restored and returned.

Philippines considers expelling Chinese ambassador as ship collision incident escalates
Reporter : Yi Jing / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2023/12/13/a103833711.html
The Philippine Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed on Tuesday (12 December 2023) that it had summoned the Chinese Communist Party’s ambassador to Manila to protest against the Chinese Communist Party’s recent serious provocations in the South China Sea. Tensions between the Philippines and CCP China escalated.
The Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs said on Tuesday that it had summoned the Chinese Ambassador to Manila Huang Xilian to lodge a diplomatic protest against the Chinese Communist Party’s recent provocative actions against the Philippines in the South China Sea. The Philippines has previously stated that it is seriously considering including Huang Xilian on the "persona non grata" list.
Manila has asked Beijing to stop illegal actions and dangerous operations against Philippine ships and stop interfering in legitimate Philippine activities, the foreign ministry said in a statement.
The Philippines' allies, the United States and Britain, have expressed support for the Philippines and condemned CCP China's actions.
"The UK opposes any action that escalates tensions, including harassment, unsafe behavior and intimidation, which increases the risk of miscalculation and threatens regional peace and stability," the Foreign Office said in a statement.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China denied and strongly protested against the Philippines’ accusations.
Last weekend, when Philippine ships were transporting supplies in the waters near Scarborough Shoal and Second Thomas Shoal, they were rammed and attacked by Chinese Communist ships and water cannons. The engine of a Philippine ship was seriously damaged, and tensions between the two countries escalated again.

The CCP uses the “Belt and Road Initiative” to expand the organ harvesting chain
China’s vast organ transplant industry has been accused of involving live organ harvesting. Huang Jiefu, the CCP’s spokesperson for organ transplantation, claimed at a “Belt and Road” forum held in Nanning, Guangxi on 9 December 2023 that the CCP’s organ transplantation technology would be exported to more countries along the “Belt and Road”. Arousing doubts from the outside world.
Huang Jiefu is the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party’s Human Organ Donation and Transplantation Committee. He is known by the outside world as the executioner of live organ harvesting. He has helped the CCP cover up its crimes in public for many years. He said at the so-called "Seventh China-International Organ Donation Conference and the 'Belt and Road' Organ Donation and Transplantation International Cooperation and Development Forum" that day that he hoped that through the "Belt and Road" National Organ Donation and Transplantation International Cooperation Alliance, the CCP organ transplantation technology has been spread to more countries along the Belt and Road Initiative.
Political and economic commentator Qin Peng analyzed that a large amount of evidence discovered in the past decade shows that the CCP is suspected of harvesting organs from a large number of prisoners of conscience, including Falun Gong practitioners, Xinjiang Uighurs, Tibetans, and members of underground Christian churches. Now the CCP has established this Belt and Road Organ Forum for at least three purposes. The first is to find wealthy buyers for China’s abundant organs, such as Arab tycoons and dignitaries from various countries. The second is to transfer international demand for organs by exporting technology. Its focus on crimes has whitened the suspicion of organ harvesting by the CCP. Third, the CCP is likely to directly harvest and sell organs overseas in the future. This will prevent its domestic crimes in China from becoming the target of international investigation for a long time.

Is the epidemic serious? Many places in China have ordered re-vaccination
The epidemic continues to spread in China. Recently, Beijing, Shanghai and other places have begun to require people to be vaccinated against covid. On 11 December, CCTV, the mouthpiece of the Communist Party of China, stated that in response to the new coronavirus epidemic, Beijing has recently started vaccinating key groups such as the elderly with the XBB covi vaccine.
According to the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the main strains of the currently circulating virus are XBB and its sub-branches.
The Beijing authorities require that people over the age of 60 and people over the age of 18 with serious underlying diseases, low immune function, and high risk of infection should receive the XBB covi vaccine.
Shanghai officials also recently stated that many community hospitals in Shanghai can make appointments for vaccinations containing the antigen components of XBB variant strains.
At the same time, Xi'an, Wuhan, Datong, Yantai, Guangzhou, Xianyang, Suzhou, Nanchang, Harbin and other cities have also started XBB vaccination.
The news sparked discussion among mainland netizens.
Someone said: "It seems really serious."
Others are worried: "Is the next step to ban and control nucleic acid production?"

About the symptoms of Omicron JN.1 infection
The mutated strain of coronavirus JN.1 is coming fiercely and has appeared in at least 12 countries around the world. The U.S. health agency said that this "descendant" of Omicron is the fastest-growing mutant strain currently known. Singapore's Ministry of Health also said last week that more than 60% of local cases are now caused by this mutant strain. What are the symptoms of infection with this mutant strain? Experts say the most obvious ones are diarrhea and headache.

JN.1 first identified in Luxembourg
According to the British "Independent" report, JN.1 belongs to the descendant lineage of the Omicron subvariant BA.2.86. It was first discovered in Luxembourg in August 2023 and is currently found in 12 countries including the United Kingdom and the United States.

JN.1 the fastest-growing covi strain
Due to the rapid spread of JN.1, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) included it separately in the SARS-CoV-2 Nowcast for the first time last Friday (8 December 2023), calling JN.1 the fastest-growing mutation strain in the United States.
The U.S. CDC wrote on its website that it is estimated that as of 8 December 2023, 15% to 29% of coronavirus cases in the United States are related to JN.1, and it is expected to continue to increase.
In Singapore, the Ministry of Health also revealed in a statement last week that more than 60% of the cases that week were infected with the JN.1 virus.

Symptoms include diarrhea and headache
In addition, according to British media Chronicle Live, the symptoms caused by the JN.1 virus are generally similar to those of other coronavirus mutant strains, but may include more symptoms such as diarrhea and headaches. Other symptoms include: fever, cough, difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle aches, loss of taste or smell, runny nose, and vomiting.
The U.S. CDC pointed out that the continued spread of JN.1 may mean that it is more transmissible, or that it is better able to evade the human immune system.
However, there is still no evidence that JN.1 poses a greater public health risk than other mutant strains.
Singapore's Ministry of Health also said that there is currently no indication that the BA.2.86 or JN.1 virus strains are more transmissible or may lead to aggravation of covid.

The mystery of Qin Gang’s life and death, the CCP’s internal struggle enters a dark stage

Recently, the American "Politico" published an article "Xi Jinping Conducts Stalin-style Comprehensive Purge", which revealed that former Foreign Minister Qin Gang had been "in a military hospital in Beijing treating the top leaders of the Chinese Communist Party" at the end of July. Among them, he died of suicide or torture."
"Politico" is a relatively reputable international media. After the article was published, it immediately aroused various speculations in the public. Many people believed that the news of Qin Gang's death might be true. Some people also dug up previous rumours, saying that he was guilty of espionage and was given a poisonous injection to kill him. Today, he was specifically allowed to leave two last words and so on.
Regardless of whether the rumours about Qin Gang are true or not, they all reflect the fact that the political atmosphere in Beijing has undergone profound changes, and the internal strife within the CCP has entered a dark stage.
After the Cultural Revolution, the main motivation why Deng Xiaoping and others were eager to build the legal system was that veteran cadres were punished so badly during the Cultural Revolution. They believed that even intra-party struggles cannot be life-and-death and must be carried out within the framework of the law. Like Liu Shaoqi holding the Constitution Still being beaten by the Red Guards, this kind of thing cannot happen anymore.
At that time, some people suggested that "in order to prevent the leakage of the party and state's top secrets during the trial", the so-called "Gang of Four" and "counterrevolutionary group" should not be tried publicly. However, Deng Xiaoping vetoed it. Hundreds of millions of people learned about the real-time trial situation through radio, television and newspapers. .
During the first two terms of the Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping, he also followed this rule. When hunting a tiger, whether it is a big tiger or a small tiger, it must be released through the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection website, and after the investigation is completed, it will be handed over to the court for trial.
Even senior CCP officials such as Zhou Yongkang and Bo Xilai, whom the Chinese Communist Party media called "careerists and conspirators," were publicly tried for corruption and other crimes. I remember one thing very clearly. In early 2012, a Chongqing website suddenly revealed that former Chongqing Public Security Bureau Chief Wang Lijun was suffering from severe depression and was undergoing treatment and recuperation. At that time, Bo Xilai and Wang Lijun were engaged in a fierce secret fight. Even under such circumstances, Wang Lijun's movements were known to the outside world.
However, after entering the third term of the CCP leader, the situation has changed a lot. Mr. Wang Youqun, who once worked for the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China, observed that 25 senior officials of the Communist Party of China, government and military have been "disappeared" in 2023. They were not confirmed to be under investigation by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection as usual, and their whereabouts are still unknown.
Some people died under mysterious circumstances, including Wang Shaojun, the former director of the Central Security Bureau, Wu Guohua, the former deputy commander of the Rocket Force, and Li Keqiang, the former premier of the State Council.
Politico says Xi is conducting a Stalinist-style purge because there are enemies everywhere. Stalin was not like Mao Zedong. Mao Zedong punished people openly and criminalized their thoughts, while Stalin relied on the secret service to carry out his crimes. There are also rumours that the leader of the Communist Party of China has established the Operations Bureau of the Central Military Commission, whose sole task is assassination and kidnapping.
When it comes to security, it is actually a modern term. Whether it is political security or economic security, it is just a description of a phenomenon. It may be clearer if we borrow a traditional saying. When someone feels unsafe, in many cases it is a "retribution".
Before Kang Sheng died, he was extremely frightened. He had to be accompanied by security guards 24 hours a day with the lights on. As long as there was no one in the ward, he would scream in horror that someone was coming to seek his life. It was horrifying to listeners. Because Kang Sheng killed countless people in order to help Mao Zedong eliminate dissidents.
Since the development of the communist movement, it has killed hundreds of millions of people in peacetime and is an enemy of all universal values. When everyone in a normal society is an enemy, whether it is suppressing Hong Kong, offending the United States, suppressing private entrepreneurs, clearing the party for three years, or rectifying colleagues in the party, it will destroy countless people's jobs and cut off countless people's livelihood. It is a big joke to want to be safe at all times.
