Why China’s ex-leader was escorted out of Communist Party congress - BBC News 

They’re not politicians. They’re puppets. Same thing in every autocracy.

What? Betrayed?

They don't want to go either

Completely inscrutable.

They didn't even look that's what's even creepier

It is both sickening and sad to see the direction China has been taking under Xi. There are other concerning authoritarian trends in the world, but Xi is now the scariest after watching russia’s slow collapse.

Wtf you taking about, China is about to 10x the GDP of the US in 5 or so years and they are systematically eliminating poverty. Like im no fan of china because I'm an anarchist but for y'all this is literally how u would define success for the Hu era.

It'll be awesome

Xi time will come he won't be missed

People like him would think that his time will never come. They all do.

Problem is Xi passed a new law which granted him almost absolute power. He is gonna be in power for a very long time just like Putin, almost until the end of his life. Very sad. The people of China desperately wanted a new leader who might be just like XI predecessor, someone more open minded. China has a such a good potential, it’s crazy how large part of the population lives in poverty.

What are they supposed to do?

Lol so you're implying you have the same political stances as Hu Jintao, a dengist who strengthened the power of corporations in China? I wouldn't expect anyone in this comment thread to look into Chinese economic policy anyways.

@oldmanwitherspoon yes let's have another color revolution resulting in untold amounts of bloodshed so China can adopt an even more capitalist economy.. sounds good to me!

@@PopPopPopPop who are you talking to mate?

@@haveatyou1 I was replying to someone who said "theres 1 billion of them, rise up!"

Because Hu still has support within the party. This is simply a 'warning' to them. Or they will be next to start feeling 'not well'.

@BOHICA sure, but it's also a pet move of paranoiac dictators and it's part of the very DNA of this regime, starting with Mao. There is, if you will, something uniquely Chinese about this, even among the trend for dictatorial purges. Just like there may be some similarities between the concepts of "saving face" and "guanxi" between Chinese and other cultures, nevertheless, they are pivotal concepts in that particular culture. Because saving face is even more important than, say, in a culture which is less insistent on such appearances, an act of deliberate humiliation speaks volumes. Yes, power relations have always existed among humans but Hu wasn't exactly clubbed over the head; he was treated as though he had no status and the public should be made aware that he was shown to be discarded as though his presence was beyond meaningless. This is fairly mild as far as The Purge goes, but it's very specific power play in a country that has its own power plays stretching back thousands of years to the Warring States period and Qin Shihuang. Not everyone would choose to display their contempt for a previous ruler in quite this way. Just saying.

Another Chinaphobia spotted!!!

"Authoritarian" maybe still a marginally applicable term up till 3 years ago. It's been "Totalitarian" for quite a while now.

@@Oo27254 If he was too elderly and ill to participate, they could have disallowed him to join them in the conference. They could have made the exact same statement to explain his absence.

Nobody turned to ask what was happening to ask about his welfare or turn and smile and nod politely to him with a kind word? Nope. This was a message. There are other ways to remove someone from their position. This was a deliberate public humiliation to communicate total control.

The old man was staggering and clearly is not feeling well.

I was excited to be part of a world with Hu in power of china, but not with Xi

I always felt bad for Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao. Their like HEROES for the western world. They brought forth a powerful and prosperous China, that actually felt like a dependable ally with the west. Even though a lot of Americans hated the lack of manufacturing jobs, people liked China regardless. XiJinping really just took over and told these others to fuck off. Now XiJinping is warmongering with the west and has seen the worst economic period in recent Chinese history. Its genuinely sad.

You forget Toad and his gang. Xi was supposed to be on the side of the Communist Youth League. He pretended to play along to get Hu’s support. Now, there are 3 factions in CCP. Toad’s, Xi’s and Hu’s. But I think Hu’s gang is being eliminated.

The open minded faction you are talking about are the more liberal minded elements of the CCP, who also have strong inclinations towards the US. Xi is purging the ranks of the pro US elements and establishing a goverment for a ramp up in the confrontation with America. Xi represents the more nationalistic elements of the CCP who are wanting to step up their game in the international arena beginning with Taiwan. The US has never seen anything as what is starting to come its way.

this just shows that China is now the most powerful monarchy in the world with capitalistic and chinese traits.....why is the west so plainly jealous and upset?i dont get it......China never claimed to be a democracy,it has never been, that democratic China died along with Chang kai shek and Taiwan, if US and the west insist on recognising Taiwan as a soverignty,then it must acknowledge dictatorship China and her right to exist too. has america forgotten her own constitution? the inalienable right for any sovereign nation to exist,regardless of their ideology,religion,affliation or this is the greatest victory and blow against the west and western ideology, China is proof that a dictatorship can rise from nothing and be incredibly successful too,why wouldnt it be?after all human history is littered with nothing but stories of the most powerful empires and dynasties.but the west and america wants to twist facts and history, they wanted to associate democracy with success and communists with failure. China is not the first dictatorship to achieve great success,something the western media hemisphere seems to conveniently ignore or look over, there were two other dictatorships that succeeded in the 20th century, one of them was Taiwan and the other was South Korea, both of them built their incredible economies under a military junta dictatorship. in fact four if u count Singapore, a psuedo democracy and the fourth one being none other than the third reich. once i was afraid of China for the longest time just like the west, but now iv learnt to stop worrying and embrace our Chynese overlords....
