China's president's daughter is at Harvard. That's a big warning sign

Taiwan News, established in 1949, recently carried an article saying President Xi's daughter, having graduated from Harvard in 2014, is now back there. And that it is likely for her own safety. The safe space movement at Harvard peaked in 2016 and is still doing things to make its students feel less threatened. But Xi Mingze would not feel threatened by old paintings of long -dead white men, as some other Harvard students are.

Her father charmed his way to the top job in China and once there consolidated his position by eliminating his rivals in an anti-corruption campaign. Then he had himself made president for life. The next step for a Chinese dictator would be to establish a dynasty. Chairman Mao had wanted to establish a dynasty, but his only son capable of the role, Mao Anying, was killed by a U.S. airstrike on November 25, 1950 during the Korean War.

For President Xi to start a dynasty, his only daughter has to get married. At 27, she is of age when she should get married. But it can't be to someone of peasant stock. It has to be to one of China's princelings — or "Revolutionary Successors," as they prefer to be known. President Xi has stressed the need for "red genes" in China's rulers. The problem is that all the princelings are all already very wealthy, so marrying into the Xi family wealth would be of no consequence. China's princesses do well, too. The Huawei executive arrested in Canada, Meng Wanzhou, has a stepsister, Annabel Yeo, who had her debut into high society at Le Bal des Débutantes Paris November 2018.

For a princeling, if you married Xi's daughter, you would become consort to the empress, but there would be a downside: you would be killed in any palace coup.

There’s another story on FR this morning about 1/3 of all millennials saying “yes” to communism.

I bet 0.0000% of them understand this story posted here for this thread.

I bet 0.0000% of them know what happened in China 1949-present.

I bet 0.0000% of them know about the Ukrainian famines of the 1930s.

I bet 0.0000% of them know the slightest thing about what communism is and what it has done.

My son is trying to get into grad schools for a PHD program in Biotechnology. Harvard/MIT have the premier program in the US. Maybe the world. Two of the labs there are made up of 100% Chinese students. US students need not apply.

FYI, he is also applying to BU, Carnegie Mellon, Northeastern, Johns Hopkins, U Penn and a couple others.

I agree with you in that I’ve found much to like and admire about the Chinese people I’ve known.

They were all very hard-working. They all made family a priority. They all valued knowledge and education.

All the more reason why we must do everything we can to help rid the world of the hideous regime that rules over them.
