China has lashed out at Germany after its foreign minister called Xi Jinping a “dictator” and summoned Berlin’s ambassador for a dressing down, in the latest flaring of tensions with a western democratic power over how the Chinese leader is described overseas.
Have you tried not being an authoritarian PoS, Xi?
He’s not just a dictator, he’s also a dick.
What’s he going to do? Fling his pooh?
I disagree with some of Scholz’s policies, but he is kind of a breath of fresh air. Merkel was a great leader, but she played it far too safe.
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, there’s a high probability it is a duck.
When the shoe fits, start wearing it. PRC is an authoritarian state led by a dictator and his cronies.
Quit being a dictator. 🤷
I love how every single comment making fun Xi the pooh here is getting downvoted lol
Here’s a little something for the dictator simps:
Gee, I wonder which group of users would do something like that…
Easy fix: don’t be a dictator.
Germany is right
Dictators were never good at hearing the truth.
Do they know healthy communication can gain a better impression and often less problematic, another boundaries and relationship course, thanks
Like with Russia? Yes, I guess they learned the lesson. Fuck dictators.
Do remember that the same Baerbock said that we (Germany/…) are at war with Russia.
She’s not exactly known for being a smart person in Germany. Whoever thought she had what it takes to be a diplomat was clearly deluded. She only got the job as foreign minister because of proportional representation.
Very noticeable that they didn’t specify how he wasn’t a dictator, nor what other label would be more appropriate.

I use a client that can block instances, so I have all of Hexbear blocked. It radically improves the Lemmy experience.
Well that just goes to prove her point. Well done, Xi.
I don’t think any country would like their head of state be called a dictator.
And yet normal, functioning countries don’t lash out like this.
Xi said that he’d start executing German tourists if they didn’t take it back
whoa, got a source on that?
