So-called "Highlights" of Chinese Dictator Xi Jinping's New Year Address:
1. A frail, aging image suddenly transformed into a carefully polished display of "youthful vigor";
2. Shamelessly boasting about "whole-process democracy" without batting an eye;
3. Loudly promoting the so-called "socialist rule of law with Chinese characteristics";
4. Insisting that China's economy is "resilient and robust", and that "the best scenery lies here";
5. Stoking public fear by warning against "infiltration by foreign forces".
In short, Xi Jinping's New Year address was nothing more than an extended exercise in self-congratulation and blatant propaganda.
