    You haven’t proven those claims, though. You keep stating them as though they are fact. This is deeply unserious behavior.

      They’re your claims.

      When I say the state has half the economy - that’s your estimate.

      When I say they plan the other half too - those are your words.

      When I point out these businesses are so clearly beneath the state, that the business’s leaders can be executed - that’s the only thing this post is about! It is a direct comparison of some guy doming a healthcare exec, and the Chinese government’s rather fucking tight control over that entire economy.

      I don’t think you understand how conversations work.

        No, you make unsubstantiated claims of Xi being able to execute whoever he wants, willy nilly, and I ask you to substantiate them. I am not saying my claims are wrong, but yours.
