This person, a liberal from Finland, self-identifies as a tankie because he wants to murder Russians. Words officially mean nothing. English class is canceled.

Outside of the content which is abhorrent in its own right, I hate how he goes about speaking on this topic:
As if President Xi is some emperor or god king reigning over China as opposed to the reality of being an elected politician alongside hundreds of others.
Tortured english as well. How about saying “He knows” instead of “He isn’t able to stop from knowing”?
In this specific case I think he is using the right English to say something extremely idiotic and chauvinist.
The idea is that all of us in China are completely brainwashed and in the dark to the reality of our country and the happenings within, and thus he and his white saviour friends are doing us a favour by parroting propaganda nonsense to teach us “the truth” of our situation.
You are right. I re-read it and they are referring to “the world” knowing, not Xi. Still very tortured english, there are surely better ways to say it.
Probably, but I suppose the tortured roundabout way of saying it is to keep the veneer of “leftist” socially acceptable chauvinism as opposed to being more direct about their beliefs.
