Clearly a staged propaganda shot.... see the false smiles on the faces of the 'rich women'... but yes, the supine subservience and unwillingness to meet the eye of the 'servitors' speaks volumes...
This picture is so silly it could have come from a 1930's Hollywood epic set in China...
Not as cringe-worthy as this ...
As cringe-worthy as it is, it is pack-loaded with regime propaganda.
It was made in preparation for the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party.
Firstly all the main 'actors/singers' are all ethnic minorities that, before Xi, would have made everyone in China cringe (including the Han and minorities).
The use of the term
CPC has now formally replaced
CCP. Anyone who uses the term CPC in a post is more than likely to be a 50-cent army poster or a 'little pink'.
The line:
'She fought in anti-Japanese war' refers to WW2 in the Pacific. Mao and his army were hiding in the back-country of China during the war. It was the Nationalists who fought the Japanese during WW2.
The line: 'She made China
the land of the free' is a direct rip-off of the US national anthem.
The line:
'People of all ranks had their say' refers to the rich and the poor had freedom of speech... Not under Mao they didn't or under any of the rest who followed. Although, Mao murdered anyone with land or money as Stalin did.
Inexplicably, the shot of Beijing is taken on one of its least 'beautiful days'... Shrouded in poisonous smog (go figure how that got in there!)
The shot where the 'students' are standing with their fist to their heads refers to their willingness to do whatever it takes to advance the cause of the party (i.e. not the country).
In the end the message is, it's not the Chinese people that makes China great it is the regime.
