The following is from a feature article in the November 26 issue of the monthly magazine WiLL titled "I Want to Curse and Kill Xi Jinping's Dictatorship! and featured a dialogue between four authors, including Tomoko Ako, a professor at the University of Tokyo, Tan Lomi, a writer, Yang Yizhi, and Liu Yanzi, a Chinese literature scholar.
As I have mentioned, WiLL and Handa are full of factual articles, yet they cost 980 yen! That's a bargain!
It is no exaggeration to say that they are the best monthly magazines in the world today.
It is a must-read not only for Japanese citizens but for people worldwide.
It is a must-read for men and women, young and old, and especially for all young people.
Some parts of the article already foreshadow the phenomenon that is now taking place in China.
(Emphasis in the text, except for the headline, is mine.
The curtain may be falling on the dynastic era, but the bloody power struggle will continue forever.
The Xi Jinping Dictatorship and the Hidden Anxiety
Ako
The Communist Party Congress is over, and Xi Jinping has entered an unprecedented third term.
Contrary to most expectations, the supreme leader is now made up of Xi's yes-men, giving birth to the world's most massive dictatorship.
Xi Jinping is a typical "bullied child," as he was forced to leave the country during the Cultural Revolution.
Therefore, he was anxious that he had to be on the side of the bullies to avoid being bullied himself, and he established a dictatorship based on digital surveillance.
The recent appointments can be seen as a reflection of Xi Jinping's fear of "internal strife.
How did you see it?
Tan
I was impressed by Xi Jinping's anxious face.
Before the party congress, objections and protests against the zero-corona policy erupted in many parts of the country.
Among them were people holding placards saying "No to dictatorship.
For several years now, Xi Jinping has been disqualifying ministry-level officials and replacing them with his faction in the name of "uncovering corruption" and "failure to address corona," Judging from the latest appointments, it appears that his anxiety has no end.
In particular, when Hu Jintao was forced out, he seemed to be treading on thin ice, saying, "Please don't go wild."
Ako
It is highly unusual for a person to leave in the middle of an official event such as the Party Congress.
For Xi Jinping, a party congress is a big event that attracts the world's attention, and if something like that were to happen, his "reputation" would be completely shattered.
Hu must have felt that Xi Jinping, whom he had nominated as his successor, had built the dictatorship that exists today.
Yang.
So Hu Jintao was effectively "purged"?
The power struggle in China is not as sweet as people around the world think.
I sincerely hope that this sinful and satanic regime will collapse, but I am also relieved that Xi Jinping has become emperor for life.
Ako.
What? Why?
Yang.
Because it marks the beginning of the end for the Chinese Communist Party.
Xi Jinping is ridiculed in China as an "accelerator" for accelerating China's collapse through his reckless zero-corona policy and economic policies.
If a reformist president is born, the Communist regime will survive.
Ako.
It is paradoxical.
Cai Xia, a former professor at the Central Party School, which trains Communist Party cadres, also argued in the U.S. foreign affairs magazine Foreign Affairs that "the only way for China to change its Xi line is to defeat it in a war."
If it attacks Taiwan, Taiwan will resist with the help of the U.S. and inflict heavy damage on China.
If that happens, not only will Xi Jinping himself fall, but even the Communist Party may fall.
Cai Xia sees it that way.
It makes me want to hate myself as a Chinese.
Ako.
The human rights situation in China has been deteriorating rapidly in recent years as the Zero Corona Policy has intensified digital surveillance.
However, even before the Zero Corona Policy began, Uyghur, Tibet, Southern Mongolia, Hong Kong, and Taiwan... Xi Jinping has repeatedly suppressed human rights.
Liu.
I had the opportunity to meet His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, a few years ago, and the truth is that His Holiness had high hopes for Xi Jinping.
His Holiness met with Xi Jinping's father, Xi Zhongkun, in Beijing in 1954, and Xi Zhongkun was very interested in His Holiness' watch, saying, "His Holiness, you wear a nice watch."
Being a countryman, Xi Zhongkun had a thing for foreign watches.
His Holiness gave him the watch, which he has used ever since.
Because of this "favor," His Holiness expected that Xi Jinping, the son of Xi Zhongkun, would have an understanding of Tibet.
However, he did not expect the dictatorship to become such a dictatorship as it has become.
I had a chance to talk to a Tibetan in exile in Spain after Xi Jinping's third term was decided, and he was crying.
As long as Xi Jinping is "emperor for life," Tibetans will never be able to return home. Some Tibetans will be unable to return to their homeland and die in other countries.
As a Han Chinese like Xi Jinping, I had no words to reply to.
Tan
The victims of the CCP who cannot return to their homeland are the same as the intellectuals and students who committed the Tiananmen Square Incident.
I interviewed those who defected abroad immediately after the Tiananmen Square incident and wrote a book entitled "The Dream Chai Ling Saw" and a follow-up book entitled "The 'Tiananmen' Ten-Year Dream." Some of the students who defected re-studied at Western universities and became licensed lawyers, saying, "I will send money to the families of the students who were killed in the Tiananmen Square incident, and I will be a lawyer for the rest of my life.
On the other hand, some got into heated debates among the exiles, leading to internal conflict.
Liu.
Intellectuals and students who defected after the Tiananmen Square incident were optimistic that China had become morally bankrupt and had lost its legitimacy and that the Communist regime would soon be destroyed anyway.
It is not surprising since it condemned the Communist regime worldwide for its armed repression.
Unfortunately, they have not been able to return home to this day.
In the 20th century, the curtain fell on the dynastic era, but the CCP's thousands of years of intrigue, sleight of hand, bloody infighting, purges, and secrecy have been carried on.
China is a country of perpetual struggle.
I recently had dinner with a Chinese resident in Japan, and she lamented herself as Chinese, saying, "I want to cut off this one arm that has Chinese blood running through it."
Seeing such an arrogant, sinful, corrupt Communist government makes me want to hate myself as a Chinese, and more and more people deny their identity.
Tan
I was born and raised in Japan and have always been an expatriate, but now it seems that more and more Chinese people do not want to live in China.
According to statistics from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) (released on June 16, 2022), nearly 120,000 Chinese people applied for refugee status in 2021, a 10% increase over the previous year.
Since 2012, when the Xi Jinping regime came to power, the number has drastically increased, reaching 610,300 in the last eight years alone.
In the last three years, despite the Chinese government's Zero-Corona policy and strict restrictions on departure from China, it has been documented that many Chinese have traveled abroad on business or tourist visas and then sought political refuge in the country where they were staying.
