Oh well that's easy, before Xi Jinping there was Hu Jintao, who was a kind of moderate technocratic kind of guy. Always about plans and numbers. And before Jintao there was a magic toad wizard who wore George Romero glasses and would yell at journalists when they asked him stupid shit
If you are lying to me about this I do not want to know the truth
i'm only mildly exaggerating
I don't think we even have emotes for those guys, and we have a million emotes!
My impression was both of then were fairly boring technocrats but I'm interested to learn more about this magic toad wizard.
This is the only thing I know about Jiang Zemin and I think I might be okay with that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kGPJzusNPA
