What Is Xi Reading?

[Colonel Obyezyana]

Comrades, I came across a dumb, AI-generated meme and saw an opportunity to flip it by changing the book to reflect Current Truth™ rather than witless TDS originally placed on the book's cover.

Younger comrades who have been indoctrinated with propagandized history may not appreciate or comprehend my choice of books but facts don't change: many suffer today due to a foolish choice made by  Richard Nixon (or his advisors), who should have been bombing Peking (Beijing) instead of Hanoi (Ho Chi Minh City) back in the 1960s and 1970s.

If anyone cares to propose other books that are making Xi Xinping laugh right now, this is the place to do it. No promises, but I may illustrate the best suggestions.

P.S.  The fine print may be hard to read, so here's a larger picture:

I think Xi Xinping has enjoyed reading The Jungle, by Upton Sinclair. So many great ideas for contaminating food production. In China, and then buying food production facilities in America. To create jobs for workers that will use "Secret Proprietary Chinese Additives" without question. Their product is then fed to the public. All the signs are there. Xi has definitely enjoyed reading and meditating on The Jungle, at least 8 times.

While Xi may have laughed over Sinclair's "The Jungle," he may have been laughing about something entirely different:

When it comes to coating children's toys with lead paint or adding poisons to baby formula, Xi may have been reading this book:

NOTE: Anyone craving hot dogs or hush puppies should book plane tickets to China now because the 16th Annual Yulin Dog Meat Festival runs from June 21 to 29 (that's right, it's not "old Chinese tradition," it's only 16 years old). 

And if dog isn't your cup of all the tea in China, you can also get pangolin, monkey, cave bats and hissing cockroaches in Yulin, or just go down there and eat a little pussycat.

Komrade Coreno O., Hushpuppies, fried Cat-fish and cheese grits are staples in the great and glorious state of Georgia (this Georgia not that Georgia) you can enjoy a fine dog 'n cat supper without digging a hole all the way to China...

...For a book suggestion, maybe "107 Days" by KaMaola Harris.

Komrade General

I propose for your perusal this:

https://www.goodreads.com/series/386961 ... -mysteries

Since the Cultural Revolution may have deep-sixed rewritten The Charlie Chan Mysteries if not obliterated them from racist global Chinese cultural history, Xi may find these interesting, especially since  they are set in Honolulu and The West. What with his latest rapprochement or whatever with Über Counter-Revolutionary Trump, he should keep up with our stereotypes of his culture, especially since we bai guei - white evil spirits ghosts - built 10 x (A Lot Of) mega-minute cities long before they did. He may or may not find them amusing, but who cares?

Also, and very au courant, is this from 2017:

So Xi should be reading Winnie the Pooh. This definitely may not amuse him.

Comrade, your suggestions are thoughtful and interesting but I can't imagine Xi LOLing over them. However, to be a good sport, here's a piece of Charlie Chan trivia...

In the 1940s-era movies, the actor who played Charlie Chan's son was Keye Luke, who decades later played the blind Shaolin monk in the TV series "Kung Fu." 

He's not to be confused with some other East Asian looking guy who co-starred in this old James Bond film which was Hitchcock's only big flop:
