I want to know how Xi Jinping managed to keep the Chinese billionaires under his thumb. That's no small feat regardless of how much you admire him/hate his guts.FOS » 21 Jun 2021, 12:55 am » wrote: ↑ Mister Bismark was also quite aware of what forces could destroy him.

This is why a person could potentially argue that Bismark was a superior statesman to Hitler. And I wouldn't really disagree.
Compromise is part of the art of politics. Bismark knew how to compromise.
The Epoch Times is retarded. They say the CCP is corrupt (show me a "non-corrupt" government and I'll show you some pixie dust/unicorn wings) but they didn't sell out their people to the highest bidder.
Rank-and-file conservatives are just useful pawns/tools like their liberal counterparts. It's really all entertainment to me (as a bystander).
Fascists like yourself understand the nature of power, but have difficulty gaining a foothold in the era of liberalism (even if it's in decline).
