The Chinese Communist Party brutal tyrant Xi Jinping uses the false slogan of "rule of law" to mask the true nature of "the Party controls everything", turning the law into a mere tool for enforcing Party will. The moment you express a dissenting opinion, you cease to be a "person"—you might be "disappeared" overnight, erased from public view, and stripped of your legal identity by the machinery of the state. Even if you've broken no law, a single comment, an article, or merely showing up at the wrong place can make you the next scapegoat under the vague charge of "picking quarrels and provoking trouble".
