the problem with xia xuay xi is that he is backtracking on what deng had unleashed in prc. he wants to go back to mao era communism without the capitalistic incentives for individuals to work hard, be entrepreneurial, prosper, own properties. the nationalization of everything from businesses to banks, startups to research, factories to shareholdings, seizure of properties, incarceration of entrepreneurs who do not toe the line, trump up corruption charges of officials who differ in opinions, etc., point to a descent to maoism and rise of another great leap backward and cultural devolution. and there are millions of sycophants and echo chambers among tiongs at home and chinks abroad (the new red guard) who are brainwashed to defend this need for absolute totalitarianism and foregoing of capitalist principles. ironically, it's the capitalist unleashing that helps prc becum what it is today since the deng era.
