      Right even though the people of the Eastern Bloc generally liked socialism and wanted to keep it around, a lot of their Communist parties like the SED in East Germany had become unpopular by 1989 for various reasons. The popularity of the CPC is so damn high in China, I don't know why these baby-brains think getting rid of Xi would do anything. I mean, at least propose a slightly more plausible idea of trying to discredit the CPC. I mean, that's not going to happen either, but at least it's slightly more logical if you actually understand China.

        Most of the former communist states underwent extensive decommunization as part of their liberalization, which usually meant that everyone associated with the former political party was banned from government and the state-owned commons were privatized. "Removing Xi" implies a global order that imposes that on China - most of the 95 million people associated with the CPC (except maybe the right-leaning members like Jack Ma) would have to be purged by the new liberal order in order and the masses would have to be subjected to an entire generation of anticommunist propoganda.
