Xi already failed to build a legacy with his zero COVID policy, and things are rapidly getting worse economically. Fighting a war is traditionally a good way to distract the people, especially if it’s Taiwan. I doubt it being unpopular or people dying phases him much. He’s a dictator very much like Mao, who couldn’t care less about millions of dead Chinese people. For them, it’s all about power, not about his people. The CCP isn’t interested in bettering their living conditions at all.
So… Has the CCP just been bettering living conditions by accident?
Do you even understand how the CCP structure works? Xi Jinping has some power, but it’s mostly checked by the fact that he’s not some omniscient being presiding over the People’s Congress.

Xi has focussed his efforts mostly in Beijing. The Shanghai clique is no more, and standards are declining accordingly.
Please don’t assume everyone commenting here only has a very blurry view from afar.
Sounds like someone without knowledge of the actual happenings in China tbh
When was the last time you stepped on Chinese soil?
None of your business.
So… Never?
Wonderful how people who don’t know shit about a country seem to be the most confident talking about it.
