The Man Who Would Play God

 

The image of Xi Jingping replaces Jesus Christ

The most dangerous leader in the world is not Vladimir Putin, Ali Khamenei or Kim Jong Un, but someone whom the Biden White House and the Cleverly Foreign and Commonwealth Office see and promote, not as the author of ongoing genocide against Uighurs and other ethnic minorities, but as a dear and trusted partner who "must not be isolated", which is precisely what both the White House and the FCO routinely seek to do to Vladimir Putin, Ali Khamenei  and Kim Jong Un. 

What makes Xi stand out from all the other despots is not the size and strength of his economy, nor his nuclear and biological arsenal and his conventional armed forces, nor even the unprecedented levels of surveillance and control he exercises over his subjects. Xi distinguishes himself by his willingness to lay plans of extermination, not against dissidents or some scapegoat ethnic group (he's doing that already without troubling the White House and the FCO in any way) but against his own Han ethnic majority, and on a scale to dwarf all previous acts of genocide.

The embedded YouTube video, below, describes a three point plan by which Xi Jingping plans to create manual jobs on construction sites for eighty million University and College graduates (a counsel of ruin and despair in and of itself), by sending a matching eighty million existing internal migrant construction workers (over fifty years old) "back" to countryside areas of extremely marginal fertility to grow grain. He also creates a uniformed militia with unprecedented powers even for Communist China, and their mission is to rigidly control every single act of agriculture or environmental management in the areas to which the eighty million "retirees" are being forced to go and this affects the existing resident population of those areas as well as the retirees. The third point of the plan appears to be the deliberate prohibition or sabotage of any act of agriculture by any of the participants that might allow them to feed themselves and their immediate neighbours, let alone earn revenue to pay for all the non-food necessities of life.

And, note very well, cash is also being extorted and drained from both the existing residents and the retirees at every turn. Resources in the affected areas that might enable life to continue, such as vegetable gardens, livestock and even orchards, forests and windbreaks of trees (some planted on the orders of Xi's predecessors to alleviate the damage done by Mao's policies of deliberate famine-creation) are being systematically destroyed. Freezers are being confiscated to stop "peasants" being able to preserve fresh food. The eighty million retirees are being transported to a land where every cupboard is bare before they even arrive. This differs from the notorious genocide of the Namib people in South West Africa by Imperial Germany at the turn of the twentieth century in only three respects:

• The (possibly only initial) number of victims is two orders of magnitude greater.
• The victims are mostly the same race and ethnicity as the militia forcing them into a desert to die and the leader ordering this to happen.
• The desert itself is being artificially created for the purpose as part of the policy!

 The motive and "justification" for this has been frankly stated that the "retirees" haven't funded their own retirement (they have only ever been paid enough in any given week to keep them alive for a week and they therefore expected to keep working till they dropped) and most only have savings to last for about a year and their own funeral. And it seems unlikely that the eighty million aspiring young university and college graduates taking their place will ever be paid enough to fund their retirement either. 

It has been stated (not by anyone connected with Xi) that all this is to provide jobs for young middle class ex-students to stop them rebelling. That may be a short-term benefit in Xi's eyes, but the reality is that a whole tier of the Chinese workforce has been given the same status as Vladimir Putin's "disposable infantry" in that they will be given jobs, and given no choice but to do them, until they become infirm or it becomes expedient to give those jobs to someone else. At which point they will be euthanized by transportation to a place where human life has intentionally been made impossible.

Not only does Xi condemn China's working class to a miserable death in an arid dustbowl of his creation: he is putting China's middle-class youth in the place of the old working class, both in the workforce and in the death queue. 

Western viewers of the video below will, on their first viewing, be most appalled at the environmental damage, but the real atrocity is that the environmental disaster is an intentional instrument of mass human execution.

Somewhat presciently, in my novel "The Lord of Billionaires' Row" (written and first published in 2018) the issue which finally triggers a civil war between opposing wings of the CCP boils down to "The Faction's" denial of the right of workers to make safe and sensible investments towards their own retirement. (Workers are fleeced, instead, by investment instruments all linked to the property market bubble.)

Afterthought, added on the 21st of June 2023:

It may seem to many that the very worst thing they can imagine, is a campaign of genocide against a religious or ethnic minority. And it probably is the worst concept that any of us can truly grasp, because it's the worst thing that happened (more than once) during the twentieth century. 

We can, however, reason (but not really grasp) that once the campaign of genocide starts against an ethnic majority the only limiting factor on that genocide is everyone being dead.
