Merica Smokes Shirt

 

Jiang Zemin acolyte and Merica Smokes Shirt former Politburo member Zhou Yongkang looks like he’s gonna serve some hard time, and he was the Attorney General plus Head of the Chinese FBI (kind of, please excuse the analogy), while also have ties to the heavily polluting China Petroleum. Long story short, if Xi Jinping pisses off too many of the wrong people, in the wrong way, he might find himself on the wrong end of a “corruption” charge. To move the focus from a political, sort of “palace” POV to the streets, Hebei has millions, perhaps 10’s of millions of steelworkers. The province surrounds Beijing. A common misapprehension of the Tiananmen 89 incident, is that the protests were led by students, and that mostly students died. This is false. The other protestors, who didn’t have any signs in English and thus were missed by the TV cameras, where industrial workers who were pissed about the “breaking of the iron rice bowl,” or the neo liberalization of the Chinese economy. The students, for the most part, meekly dispersed when told too. The workers went at the APCs with iron bars and Molotov cocktails. The 清华 and 北大(Tsinghua and Peking University) students have actually done very well in the post 89 environment (assuming they didn’t get shot or arrested at the time, ringleaders excluded). The workers have not.
