First, let's have someone, besides the player now known/suspected of being a Chinese agent, analyze this rendition of the Beijing Consensus.
HALF-TRUE Social unity and cohesion (Through severe freedom of expression and marginalization of minorities, i.e.anyone who isn't Mandarin-speaking Han)
FALSE Prosecution of corrupt public officials (Actually prosecution of democracy-minded activists by corrupt officials, the ones in power - Party cronies, No true democracy in China).
HALF-TRUE Public regulation of powerful industries (Hmm, but not so much with regard to the Environment or foreign IP)
TRUE Prosecution of conflict instigators (Hong Kong, Tianamen, COVID, etc).
TRUE Stern punishment of violent criminals and drug traffickers
FALSE Governments not meddling in other countries affairs (Please...)
FALSE Being anti-imperialist (Tibet, Taiwan, etc. - Just shut up, and take these last two off the list)
