At some point, China is going to realize that maintaining the NORK regime just isn’t worth it.

In his letter to the son of Timur, Mehmed I Chelebi, the fourth sultan of the Ottomans, said: “My ancestors handled some inconveniences with their experience. Two sultans cannot live in the same country.” The execution of members of the dynasty for political reasons does not pertain only to the Ottomans. It was also practiced by the Sasanians, Romans, Byzantines and even the Muslim Andalusian states. However, the main reason for this practice in these kingdoms was to take over the throne instead of preserving the unity of the state and the livelihood of the people. On the other hand, thousands of people who died during the long-lasting wars for the right of succession in Europe should be remembered.

If the fat one is following this advice we will see many more killings.
