At first glance, the CCP's media reports make it seem as if everything is peaceful and the people are living and working in harmony. But a closer look reveals that Beijing's streets are guarded every few steps, with checkpoints and patrols everywhere—an atmosphere of extreme fear and paranoia. Xi Jinping, a dictator terrified of commen people to the core, takes pride in it rather than feeling shame. It’s truly laughable on a global scale.
