-It's so win-win!

"Xi speaks to the shared fate of humanity..."
Riveted, (with the help of jasmine tea) the kids listen attentively as teacher speaks of the promised land.
Around the world, the fragrant message of Xi's vision is disseminated...
(Even though I am a Chinese, we share the shared goals of humanity.)
China's culture is so ancient...
(As for the statues, any facial resemblance to a current leader is entirely coincidental)
How to put it without sounding Sinocentric?
Beijing is the center of China, China is the central country, and the central country China is the center of the world.

Yet another publication by the world's greatest freelance writer:

Patrick Chovanec, a consultant at Silvercrest Asset Mgmt has done some China virtue-signaling by compiling photos about the 1989 Tiananmen demonstrations, an event he evidently knows little about.
(a thread)
To do this, he compiled over a dozen of my photos on his blog , and when I brought this to his attention, he made no effort to credit the photos or reveal where he got them from. patrickchovanec.com/about/
Some of the photos now have a life of their own on the internet, including the above photo, (caption by Chovanec) which has been used by conspiratorial pro-China bloggers as proof of a "color revolution."

CCTV FOLLIES: 5.26
China state TV doubles down on dubious Russia claims about "secret" US bio-labs in Ukraine.
(from May 26 Xinwen Lianbo)
Anchor Li Zimeng couches the accusations in the language of Russia's Defense Ministry, but the CCTV editors like the story enough for it to get major airtime.
The Russia Defense Ministry, solid architectural monolith that it is, is portrayed as a presumably authoritative source.
Read all about it! Top of the news! Yet another much-heralded publication by the indefatigable freelance writer Xi Jinping, whose excessive narcissism is nicely balanced with pictures of himself.
Up next, a nostalgic look back to 2017 when this man was laying the foundation of today's greatness.
Among many, many other incredible, almost super-human accomplishments, he created a city out of dust.
