drol 6,441 Posted May 22, 2022 Chinese president Xi Jinping is reportedly suffering from brain aneurysm and refusing surgery. Voices have been insistent for the past weeks, and there has been no denial. Also notice Xi Jinping's mother Qi Xin (wiki) is still alive at 95. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 6,441 Posted December 24, 2022 Right now I think it 's a hoax, soundofhope is notoriously trash. On the other hand I wouldn't be surprised at all. If an announcement doesn't come before tomorrow it is the usual baseless hoax. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Qi Xin visited at home by party officials today, so, well, usual Falun Gong bullshit. EDIT: former governor of Guangdong Zhu Senlin, 92, was also visited to dispel rumours he was in hospital (his successor as mayor og Guangzhou died this morning). 105-year old relic Fan Xixian was also visited.

Nice of them to get so many visitors whilst COVID is spreading like wildfire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
