Now it is very clear that there are quite a few people like Xi Jinping. Many of them are around 60 years old who were born between 1947 and 1955 and grew up with PRC. They barely finished a normal middle school education. Just look at Xi Jinping's circle: Li Hongzhong, Cai Qi, Wang Hulin, Chen Xi, ...
An obvious feature of Xi Jinping's circle is: no one really received a college education from 1978 till 1980s. So their knowledge is limited to Mao's thought. Nothing else.
There are some younger ones, but they don't really know what is Culture Revolution. Mainly they are fooled by Xi Jinping.
China has a long way to go. We should let the young generation know who are Xi Jinping and Mao, what is Culture Revolution, etc.
