Fucking rootless cosmopolitans!
(((Charles M. Lieber))) was the chair of Harvard chemistry department, and he tried to hide his connections and work with the PRC from the government. Was arrested under Trump in 2020 and given a wrist slap under "Biden" in 2021.
And now I'm guessing days after his "supervised release" ended, he has been given the highest level of professorship at a unit of Xi's Tsinghua University.
(Xi's an alum and his new clique is named after it. In a weird sort of way n that the Cultural Revolution brutalized his family and his real formal education was ended in middle school.
He was sent there as an established CCP member under a "Worker-Peasant-Soldier student" program without the usual examination entrance the Chinese are (in)famous for. I guess they treated him well.
None of this is his personal fault, but it's important, that he's part of a "lost generation" of poorly educated leaders and the whole mess including the Official suicide of a sister has got to have a lot to do with his ways and drive to reach paramount power.)
