I’m guessing he was made an example of. Anyone with half a brain understands Chinas path to being a superpower as an economic powerhouse is hampered by Xis dogma and ambitions. Trying to start political fights with your best customers and investors and even neighbors is bad for business
He won’t be the first to say it.

So, Xi is now a god?

In the US it’s written into the constitution. Slavery is allowed as a punishment for crimes.

Just a weird advert really. Do you think it was a Chinese agency?

So . . . do those multivitamins include that random breakfast preparing white man with bedroom eyes?
Or is that not included?
