CCTV FOLLIES 10.4 NATION'S NEW JOURNEY
No belt-tightening on Belt and Road -Doubling down on Xi's vision! -Why not spend the springtime of youth working on the railroad? -China's win-win-win in Hangzhou! -NATO so wrong! -US falling apart!
The news opens as it always does, with good news about Xi and the good things he is doing for China, and humanity in general. First mention of the man is oft enshrouded in mist and other inspiring atmospherics. The stunning sunsets are usually saved for the climax of the propaganda arc. Today, mercifully, the Xi histrionics are minimal.
For starters we get but re-runs and repeats to the tune of “Belt and Road” and “Unite and Struggle on the New Journey”
Note: “New Journey” refers to Xi’s latest whims, wishes and wherevers.
Just a few wise words from this lofty man of inspiration is enough to set a whole country into frantic motion on the Belt and Road of the New Journey.
