    The comment I replied to says:

    Working class rebel vs Elite class looking for more control

    Notice the part highlighted in bold. I am asking for proof of this. In other words, proof that the Chinese government executed CEOs only because they sought “more control”. Surely we are not expected to blindly trust this claim, right?

      Why not? They did when the CIA told it [to the journalists that repeated it] to them.

      So it’s planned economy that you’re disputing

      I really can’t think of any proof that you would believe if you’re disputing that

        No.

        My question is very clear, why can’t you address it without pretending I asked something else?

        Again, you made the claim that CEO executions were made for the reason of seeking more control. Please provide proof that they were done for this reason and not any other reason. I have not asked for planned economy proof or anything else.
