Secondly, what are your opinions on the matter?

Billionaire Michael Bloomberg recently claimed in an interview with PBS’s Firing Line host Margaret Hoover that Chinese Communist Party chairman Xi Jinping is “not a dictator” and argued the country’s so-called environmental policies demonstrate the communist leader answers to a “constituency.” The Chinese ruler was installed as president and “paramount leader” by the roughly 3,000 members of the undemocratically-elected National People’s Congress in 2012.
Xi has 12 separate titles, including General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Chairman of the Central Military Commission, Leader of the Central Leading Group for Foreign Affairs, and is formally known as the Communist Party’s party’s “core,” a title which he received in October 2016. In March 2018, China approved the removal of the two-term limit on the presidency, effectively paving the way for Xi to remain in power for life.

Rockefeller wrote a gushing panegyric about the Regime of one of the most vile Dictators in the World. Mao killed some 75 million of his own people! Let that sink in. This is nothing new. It demonstrates that the American elites actually give zero shits about human rights or democracy; its all about their own power and wealth. Their cries for human rights and liberty are pure hypocrisy and a weapon used to bludgeon their enemies. Simple as that.

75 million now? Mao's killing even more people from the grave?
