Many around the world see Xi Jinping as brutal dictator controlling the masses in China with censorship of outside western information, using high tech surveillance to monitor its people, no respect for human rights for anyone who opposes the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and genocide of the ethnic minority Muslims in the Xinjiang region in northwest China. In 2018, Xi abolished presidential term limits making him one of China’s most powerful communist dictators ever. In November 2021, the CCP declared Xi’s ideology the “essence of Chinese culture” giving him the same status Mao Zedong, the founder of the People’s Republic of China and chairman of the CCP from 1949-1976 upon his death. In essence, Xi’s ideology is a centralized government under his control with no dissent allowed and no true elections with different political views. In 2019-2020, Xi supported the strong use of police tactics to squash and punish all pro-democratic dissidents in Hong Kong. Xi has also used stronger language condemning Taiwan independence from mainland China calling both counties as one family that cannot be pulled apart. Xi’s 21st century communist China will continue to expand its military and threaten those who are not submissive to China’s new ideology of blending western capitalism with Chinese totalitarianism, the Xi dynasty of tyranny.
