Fully disagree. Xi is sacrificing the (economic ) wellbeing of his citizens at the altar of stricter repressive policies on its own population, and international power games. Corruption is running rampant there’s a massive real estate bubble, the population is aging quicker than in the west and I don’t think he has the ability to fix these issues, because he takes growth for granted.
You think early humans ate raw livers for vitamin C? Sounds unlikely. We are omnivores, and except for rare exceptions (I.e. on the Northpole) plant material is more abundant than animals.
