China is completely locked down in Shanghai, the producer of 20% of the world's goods, its port is closed and 4,000,000,000 (it said four thousand million!) people in the country are locked down.
Xi's two terms are coming to an end and up until now, China had term limits. So he has to shutdown his economy and suspend the civil rights of individuals to go to work, make a living, etc. in order to secure power in the coming Chinese election season. I'm not sure Xi is doing anything worse than what the Democrats did in 2020.

In the words of the Governator, "Screw your rights!" Trash the economy and rack up an insurmountable debt with 40 year record inflation.
The lockdown in Shanghai is to enforce their Covid containment policy. It is not to copycat Trump's ploy to assume a lifetime dictatorship and have himself anointed the Orange Emperor.

It's a copycat of how the Democrats used Covid restrictions to cheat by mail. The lifetime dictator pulling the strings behind the scenes in all this is Barack Husein Obama.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Sigh.

China's Xi allowed to remain 'president for life' as term limits removed
11 March 2018


The hint is in the date. I made it big to help you out.
China has approved the removal of the two-term limit on the presidency, effectively allowing Xi Jinping to remain in power for life.
The constitutional changes were passed by the annual sitting of parliament, the National People's Congress.
The vote was widely regarded as a rubber-stamping exercise. Two delegates voted against the change and three abstained, out of 2,964 votes.
Xi already has all the power he needs, for as long as he can sustain it. And he has been in that position for over four years, long before the pandemic.

Your comparison between the establishment of Xi's dictatorship for life and any action by one of the US's major parties, which still operate under something resembling the rule of law with strict limits on terms of office, is either a spectacular act of contempt for your own country and its freedoms (which are still infinitely superior to China), or it is just idiotic and ignorant babbling.

Utah, the LDS Republican State, had been using mail-in ballots as the primary means of voting for several elections before we were experiencing a time of contagion. It works well as a means of voting. It freed me from having to stand in long lines. I am able to perform this civic duty via my postal carrier.

Your mention of cheating is a repetition of the lies from your whining orange demagogue.

This is outrageous paranoid nonsense unsupported by anything other than flat, totally unsubstantiated assertions by Trump and his cowardly, corrupt and/or deluded sycophants and supporters. Numerous studies and investigations have shown rather conclusively that election fraud, by mail or otherwise, is extremely rare, and at least as often committed by Republicans as by Democrats. In fact, a majority of the few proven election fraud cases were committed by Republicans. Even William Barr, Trump's appointee as Attorney General, admitted that there was not enough electoral fraud to significantly affect the election results one way or the other.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Can I pay you with a promise that you will have a right to all the social seurity funds I will ever receive for my forced retirement savings?
