China’s Xi goes full Stalin with purge

[gingerlyn]

In a sign of instability in Beijing’s top ranks, foreign policy and defense officials are vanishing as Xi roots out perceived enemies.

Something is rotten in the imperial court of Chairman Xi Jinping.

While the world is distracted by war in the Middle East and Ukraine, a Stalin-like purge is sweeping through China’s ultra-secretive political system, with profound implications for the global economy and even the prospects for peace in the region.

The signals emanating from Beijing are unmistakable, even as China’s security services have ramped up repression to totalitarian levels, making it almost impossible to know what is really happening inside the country.

Nobody can match stalin's purges. Even muslims forced to eat pork. Hence in ex soviet states, muslims eat pork. And tibetan budhism in Mongolia was almost entirely destroyed. No temples left except for historical reason.
Only one religion allowed. Submission to Stalin and communist party.
Stalin was not even russian. He was a Georgian.
