#Xiaolin analysis

[terrestrialnoob]

Xiaolin Showdown is weird for a lot of reasons, but lovable for more. But something fascinating to me is that only one main villain is actually evil. You've got: Jack Spicer, who just wants to be taken seriously and thinks world domination would give him that. Wuya, who is so lonely that even when she rules the world, she does everything she can to keep her one companion. Chase Young, who was manipulated into drinking evil soup and can't really stop without dying. And Hannibal Roy Bean, who is actually evil, tricked Chase into drinking the evil soup, and wants to cause death, chaos, and destruction.

Xiaolin Showdown time. Ye olde cartoon theories from ancient history.

The reason Jack Spicer is prolly so pale? ( I know the general fandom headcanon, but hear me out). Is probably because he's iron deficient.

And that works, because he was intended to be, and prolly still is let's be honest, the Xiaolin Dragon of Metal. He lacks Metal.

Therefore...

Jack Spicer fails his quests, because he is literally, and figuratively, Out of His Own Element.

I wanna talk about the monks' fears

  Disclaimer: Spoilers for those who haven’t watched this show from 2003 (And if you actually didn’t watch it, then do it. Why are you here in the first place?)

  With that out of the way, it’s time to indulge into my hyperfixation once again

  You see, one thing that I really like about Xiaolin Showdown is its combination of simplicity and subtlety. There are some things that are as they’re shown, and there are other things that are actually more detailed than they seem and you can miss them on first watch

  As such, the show encourages you to go deeper, to think beyond what it’s shown in front of you and have your own interpretation on things

  And one thing that always left me think is episode 10 from season 2, where we get to see each of the monks’ fears, because what we see can be taken in a simple and literal way

  But you can also go deeper and break each fear into a core concept

  First, I wanna make note of the fact that each fear has something special to them. They have at least one thing that help them be different from each other, which is something more notable when you take them one by one to analyze

  And this is what I plan to do

1. Clay’s fear

  The thing that’s interesting about Clay’s fear is that it’s the only one about someone. If the others’ are represented through animals or objects, his is represented by not only a real person, by a relative as well

  You can also easily take his fear as it’s shown: he fears his grandma because he had a bad experience with her. You can put it as a simple trope of fearing your relative, which was most likely the intention (and honestly, she does look scary in her own way)

  But aside from that (and my personal feelings of relating to his fear), one thing that’s important to note is that children, just like adults, can subconsciously associate things with feelings. Sometimes their fear is straight forward: they fear it because it looks scary. But sometimes, their fear is associated with another emotion, but they’re not fully aware of this and they deem the “object” as scary instead of the real reason they were afraid in that situation

  To put it simply, it’s like conditioning: you get a bad emotion from a thing, so you learn to avoid the thing, without realizing that the problem is the emotion and not the thing itself

  And since these are supposed to be their deepest fears, it makes more sense that they’re associated with another feeling than just being scary

  With Clay’s fear, I would say that it’s related to the lack of control. The way he talks about her makes it seem that she was something he had to endure, which would make sense because if they visited her as a small child, then he had no choice than to accept her doting which was actually painful

  And it would make sense if his deepest fear is the lack of control, because one of Clay’s core traits is strength within self, which is affirmed by his feeling of relaxation and comfort. He’s someone who likes to chill and vibe in his own way, and when he has to do something he doesn’t like, we can feel him being awkward or uncomfortable, an example being the episode when he followed his father’s orders

  Yes, he can act with anger in unpleasant situations and stand up for himself, but as I stated before, it’s most likely that he endured the unpleasant visits to his grandma when he was young, when he didn’t have much of a choice in the matter. So, it makes more sense why his grandmother is the image of his fear of lack of control, because these were the moments when he lacked control in his life the most

  This fear of lack of control has its benefits, but also its downsides. On one hand, it helps him be focused on what he can do and how he can use the knowledge he has in order to be in control of situations. On the other hand, he has a subtle avoidance of things that he’s not certain about, and he can either become too set up in his comfort zone, or he’s too thrown off in situations that he’s not familiar of (for example, his stage fright)

  Which it’s interesting to think about. Clay is a character who has stable principles and he’s defined by strength, both internal and external, but his desire to maintain this sometimes leads him to a bigger passive role than he would want to. And if it goes to extreme, it could have an opposite effect and make him question his value and strength

  Just some food for thought

2. Kimiko’s fear

  One thing that’s worth noting on the spot is the doll’s appearance. It was probably meant to look like this to fit in with the creepy doll trope, but it also makes it different from others for another reason

  Unlike the others, this one makes you think on the spot, it makes you immediately have questions like “What happened? Why does it look like this?”. Its appearance alone tells a story, by hinting that there may be a different reason why she’s afraid of it, not just because it looks scary

  And from the looks of it, it seems that the doll got burned, which is even more interesting, considering the fact that fire is Kimiko’s element

  Now. I did see some people theorizing that Kimiko activated her powers and accidentally burned it, which I’m honestly 50/50 about this idea

  On one hand, it would immediately make a lot of sense why she’s so scared about it. She was a young kid who experienced a supernatural and dangerous event out of nowhere, and she possibly spent years in confusion about what happened until she got the revelation that she’s the Dragon of Fire

  But on the other hand, even if I read some good stories with this subject, I’m personally not into the idea of the monks showing their elements before they joined the temple. Them using their elements always felt like something gradual, like something that evolved and developed along with their skills and that at the beginning of the show they only had the potential and capability to use their element. Sure, maybe they showed an interest/drive to it, but that was never something that defined them

  My personal interpretation is that they were never defined by their element, their element was defined by them, if that makes sense

  Which is why I prefer to think that she accidentally burned the doll through other means, which would also make sense. Kids can easily do reckless things, and Kimiko showed in the past how her curiosity and experimentation can cause some issues, so it wouldn’t be a stretch to think that she wanted to try something out with fire and burned the doll as a result

  But this also leads to the question to what fear she’s associating the doll with, because it wouldn’t be danger, as he bravery is a strong element to her

  With that, I would say that she associates the doll with guilt. Another core trait of Kimiko is her compassion, as she easily offers her care and understanding to her friends. Yes, she can be hot headed and impulsive, but it’s very clear that helping others is in her best interest

  And as a result, she immediately feels guilty when she makes a mistake, when she’s hurting others, whether she’s mistreating someone or her ambition leads to problems instead of solutions

Deep inside, she’s afraid of regret, of doing things that could make things worse, and the doll is a representation of that: maybe it was the first time she did a mistake like this, and the first time she felt guilty because of it

  This fear of regret is interesting, because it can go in conflict with her bravery: she’s not afraid of danger, of taking risks herself, but this ambition and bravery can lead to her making things she would feel guilty of

  Her ambition is both her strength and her weakness, which is fascinating to me

3. Omi’s fear

  His fear seems to fall into the silly fear trope which, just like I stated with others, this was probably the reason. But what’s interesting about his fear is actually not the appearance

  Is that we can actually pinpoint where his fear is coming from

  I can explain by going back to episode 12 from season 1, when Omi fought Jack in a showdown over the Heart of Jong. This is when we see his first reaction to squirrels, which is not one of fear, is one of surprise, and he only reacts after the squirrel bites him

  And as showdown, he chooses one who’s squirrel themed while talking about them with respect

  Which doesn’t really make sense if he’s supposed to be terrified of them

  But after this episode we do see him be terrified of squirrels, starting from episode 3 from season 2, when Jack messed up with the monks by stopping time and such

  So, what changed? Why is he scared of squirrels now?

  Well, I’d say that the reason is in episode 12

  Omi is a brave and strong warrior, this is true. But because of his big ego strong confidence, there’s one thing that I can say for certain he’s afraid of: failure

  Failure is a sign of lack of skills, of imperfection and of possible danger brought upon others. Omi holds himself on a high regard and under big responsibility, so every time he experiences failure he gets a hit on his confidence, which is why he’s shown many times to be guilty when he’s failing at something

  And despite the fact that he lost other showdowns at the start of the show, in this episode he lost a showdown which had a Shen Gong Wu that almost brought destruction over all by being used to bring back Mala Mala Jong, a foe that made even Master Fung look terrified

  This showdown is the first time he felt this much of a failure, and his mind subconsciously associated the failure to something physical: squirrels. Then he subconsciously justified his fear over squirrels by exaggerating their features and this is how we got here

  This would mean that we got to see how the main character developed his fear, which it’s fascinating. We don’t get a reason in the episodes, but we get hints that help us come with an interpretation ourselves

  Omi’s fear progression is like the representation of the show itself, which it’s the reason why I find it this interesting

  But there’s one more that I personally find even more interesting

4. Raimundo’s fear

  Okay okay, there’s a reason why I left Raimundo to last and that reason is that he’s my favorite character of all time. This is not a secret and will never be, and every time I get the opportunity to talk about my boy I shine so brightly I could challenge the sun from Philippines

  And the first thing I wanna talk about his fear is how strange it looks. It doesn’t look like a person, it doesn’t look realistic and it barely resembles a jellyfish. It doesn’t look extra intimidating or scary, it actually looks cartoony

  And it makes my mind run wild, because what’s the reason it looks like this? Why is his fear so different from the others? Sure, you can come up with a meta explanation that the writing team wanted to keep things family friendly, they didn’t care much about how a jellyfish (or maybe a Man o’ War) looks, or they wanted to represent the kind of cryptid/ambiguous fear a child can have, but I’m not looking here for meta explanations

  I’m looking here for psychological interpretations, and my interpretation is this: it’s a direct proof that not the jellyfish matters, the idea around it does

  Maybe he encountered a jellyfish when he was young but he didn’t get to see it properly, or maybe he got to see it but subconsciously doesn’t focus on the jellyfish itself, but the thing that I want to be certain of is that he encountered one and got stung by it

  Why? Because it would be the first time he felt pain, the first time he felt fear

  And the thing that Raimundo fears the most, is vulnerability

  Maybe it’s because he learned to look tough in the time he explored the dangerous places from Rio, maybe it’s because of some desire to prove himself that he developed from a family with many siblings, or maybe it’s a combination of both. But what I’m certain of, and that he showed many times in the series, is that he’s afraid of vulnerability. He’s afraid of showing himself as vulnerable, being considered as such and other things related to it, which includes not being good enough

  Which is the reason why his fear is once again represented by a jellyfish in episode 8 from season 3

(Also holy hell I love this version so much, it looks so cool-)

  That episode dwelled more into his fear of not being good enough, which is what he overcame at the end. The fact that his self-esteem issues have been hinted at for many many episodes and we got them actually addressed is something that I’ll always admire and love about the show

  But another thing that’s been hinted at in the episode was his fear of admitting to it, which I would argue that it’s the reason why his fear of lack of competence grew this much in the first place

  Just like with Omi, I’d say that this fear of inadequacy started in episode 12 from season 1, with the Mala Mala Jong incident. He saw the rejection of being promoted to apprentice as being considered a failure, as not being good enough, and as this is a sign of vulnerability, his reaction was to hide it and run away

  And if before he was complaining but still doing tasks (in his own way), after this incident with Mala Mala Jong and Wuya we actually saw him slacking off more in season 2 by hiding dirty plates, dust and using Vlad to do the work for him. Only after this episode he got officially characterized as a slacker, which in episode 8 from season 3 we got it confirmed that it comes from his fear of not belonging in the team because he���s not good enough

  He was having this fear for so long, but he never showed it properly because he avoids showing vulnerability, so it got bottled up for many episodes till it finally got addressed and dealt with in episode 8 (also, Omi’s constant remarks and his team’s occasional distrust on him most likely didn’t help with his fear of inadequacy)

  And this is what’s interesting for me. Even if he resolved his fear of not being good enough, his core fear of vulnerability is still there, and it has the possibility of raising other fears in him, because he still has the habit of closing himself

  As long as he doesn’t learn how to open up in a healthy way, he will still form fears, he will still form worries, and they will still grow until he will not be able to hide them anymore

  His fears may take many forms, but they will still be rooted to the same idea, to the vague image of a jellyfish

  And I love this so much

  So yeah, these are my interpretations on the monks’ fears! Of course, you can have your own interpretation, as many of these things are more or less implied than confirmed. And I am curious about what you personally think! (I’m always eager to talk to someone about the show)

  And if you got to read till the end, here’s an image with Raimundo being made to do his work

  Look at him

  The little prick

[destiny-in-the-universe]

So.

I may have just binged Xiaolin Showdown- I’m not quite at the finish line yet, but I am screaming. First of all - the main four embody their elements so well!

Between Clay’s down to earth attitude, but at the same time - being a strong, hard-to-take-down opponent. As a dragon of earth, I was definitely in awe the entire time. I enjoy his character so much, and the Texan sayings he says? Count me in!

Kimiko? Her fiery attitude matches being the dragon of fire so well. She has a free-spirited energy, and can’t easily be tamed even by the wildest of evils. She has an immeasurable, headstrong way of directly taking things on. She’s grown more as a character, but because these characters are likely no older than 13 - they still have a lot more to learn.

Raimundo. Dragon of Wind. He’s the most unpredictable of all of them sometimes - he has an energy which cannot be tamed, and won’t be held down by anything (even if it almost became his door fall). Though in the end, he came back around- deciding he couldn’t abandon his friends…

And then there’s Omi. The Dragon of Water. With his strength, athleticism, and optimistic personality make him perfect for his element- his cheerful but bold attitude are a wonderful mix and I cannot wait to see more from him and the rest of the cast! Though I only got to episode 25, and I’m purring like an idiot- Omi’s characteristics are mirrored as if it were water. He almost seems to go with the flow, but in the end - like a tsunami - he will always protect the ones he cares about.

But now- I get to talk about what I was itching to focus on grrr.

Our villains…

Jack Spicer is certainly the kind of villain who serves as comic relief, but even then- he’s a genuine good fodder to the four monks that stand against him. At times, we’ll see him team up with them for a shady cause, and I find this almost charming. While he isn’t the most terrifying of villains, and he simply functions as the filler for the monks to handle, I’ve grown quite fond of his character!

but ho boy, then we have Wuya and can I just say- she might not have a physical form but even then - she makes for a great opponent. The episodes in which she gained physical form were done so well, and I found myself being drawn in more and more. Her cunning and trickery make her a hard enemy to beat- and I am curious to see where else this series takes us.

BUT there’s another character that has me frothing at the mouth: Chase Young.

Previously on the side of good, Chase Young turned evil on the promise of power and youth- he has his army of Fallen Warriors to guard him, and well, if the fact he’s immensely powerful. Not to mention, he’s incredibly strong and has been around for, say, a while (?). He’s already caught my interest and I can’t wait to see more of him… also his interest in Omi from episode 25 “The Evil Within” has my metaphorical tail wagging because holy- I’m already seeing the vision: Chase attempting to sway Omi onto the side of evil…

Also, the Fallen Warriors being cats while Chase Young has slitted golden eyes (and yes, I know that secretly the mf is reptilian-) is extremely ironic and I live for it- nonhuman Chase for the win because, well, that is what he is! I can’t wait to continue seeing more of his character-

Of course, this is hardly helping my case at all…

Xiaolin Showdown and Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja would be such an interesting crossover- like, I do have a couple ideas cooking in my mind but at the same time… I need to develop this a little more! And if it happens to be influenced by the whole First Ninja and Chase Young dynamic, no it isn’t - whatever do you mean /lh

My tail is wagging

More to come soon! Because mrrr- I am ever so slightly hyperfixated…

Why Omi would be a bad shoku warrior:

Many might think that the best choice when it comes to picking a leader would be Omi. Why? I think it's because of the fact he's kinda like the main character. Kinda. Cuz in theory there's 4 main characters and that obviously is Omi, Rai, Kim and Clay, but Omi is the first one we see, the first episode is basically focused on him realizing he’s there as a subject of teaching and not the teacher, and he probably has the most episodes that are mainly about him. He has the biggest amount of showdowns and maybe even the most quotes. He's also so fixated about being a xiaolin monk, he often talks about his honor and how he loves to fight and generally how awesome he is. Even my older sister who didn’t watch the show when asked said that Omi became a leader. Just because it suits him, right? He's ambitious, focused on his goals, this reality is everything he knows, so isn't it enough, isn't he a perfect choice? Well, no, and I will prove why *fingers cracking*

#1. Omi is too self focused, narcissistic & egocentric:

Don’t say he's just confident. Being narcissistic is not the same as being confident. He's cocky, he makes fun of others (Raimundo) for their mistakes, he sees himself as the better person in everything and tends to bend what he knows is bad when he really wants to do it to fit his own fake narrative. He loves himself too much, just too much for this position. I saw a quote that said If you want to see if someone is a narcissist you have to listen to how they wish you a happy birthday or any other thing. If they make it somehow about themselves - they're narcissistic. Omi does this, and the example is how when the monks tried to corrupt Dojo with gifts to see if he knows who's gonna be wudai or shoku warrior they all gave him something... normal. Rai - A chain with letter “D”,  Kim - basket with fruits and for Clay it probably was a hat cuz I don't remember. Omi gave him a portrait of himself. Not of Dojo but of him. Narcissist 100%

#2.He wants to be better than everyone and is blinded by that:

Remember when everyone got those kind of wu that were only theirs and they were supposed to like work with that one individual element? The ones they put on their hands? 😅 xD Anyway, Bean Roy knew Omi and the other monks the shortest, since he was the last “big villain" that occurred on the show. And yet he knew that his ego is so big and so prone to suggestions, especially the ones that might make him “even better" than everyone else, that he did go to his head and just whispers "Hey, u know u can use everyone's wu and u will be like super powerful after that?". That's all, he literally didn’t do anything more than that. With Raimundo when he did the same thing - he tried psychological tricks to break him, he had to search for deep things in his mind to do that. But with Omi it was a couple of sentences. A couple of words to make him go and STEAL someone’s belongings to become more powerful just for the sake of it.

#3. His weird relation with Chase Young:

Now, I think that this is a valid and a solid reason on it own to not trust that boy and to not make him a leader. Because how do you imagine a shoku that lies to his friends about what he's doing in the main villain palace and he's there because he wants to SET HIM FREE from the Sphere of Yun that Jack Spicer put him in?! Like what?! He did that ONLY because he likes Chase. And there's no denial he does, because he does, let's be real. We might say “He's just naive and he sees good in everyone”, but that's not what happened there and it had nothing to do with that. He set him free just because. Cuz he likes him, he's for whatever reason almost smitten with Chase. And maybe it's because Chase is like a fallen angel - He was good but then chose to be bad and now Omi wants to make him good again because he was one of the trio that stopped Wuya back in the day and he would like to worship him as he does this with Dashi & Guan? Or maybe because Chase teases him? He's constantly talking to him, Omi knows he wants him by his side and he feels... Special? His ego is most definitely a huge part in this. 100% 

#4.He's naive:

Omi is the youngest as some sources claims, but we all can agree on that I think. He might be under the age of 13 or 14 at ABSOLUTE max. I mean they're all pretty young, but there's still a difference between like 18 I would give to Raimundo at the end of the show or 19 I would give Clay and that 13 of Omi. He's young and he does not know anything about the outside world besides the temple. Maybe that's also the reason why he's so naive, but we see that many times in the show that he wants to make bad people into good ones almost in the blink of an eye. He tried that with Jack a couple of times and he almost wanted to be some sort of friends with him??? When Jack decided to join them he absolutely trusted him, which is so weird to me considering how much resentment and grudge he has and holds towards Rai for his past betrayal. Even when he proved his worth their trust, even when there was no doubt he's changed and knows better now - he still had to clap his goddamn mouth about how Rai is worse than him and the rest and he still doesn’t know if he can trust him. Yeah, but at the same time you saw nothing wrong with Jack living with you under the same roof, doing the same with Katnappe and having this weird thing going on with Chase? That makes sense Omi xDD. So yeah, he was not a good choice for a shoku at all, I hope you also see that if u didn’t before 🙂🙃.

[grasshopperdoingdogpaddle]

That growth spurt. Omi has to reach so much higher now to point at Jermaine's heart.

This is why Omi should just join Chase already, those results speak for themselves.

[helipackjack]

The hill scene in xs S1 finale where Jack tries to leave after refusing Omi's offer but pausing when Omi grabbed his jacket and looked at him sadly

I can't help but feel like, Jack was definitely not aware of it, but at a subconscious level, maybe he knew there may be something for him in that offer, something he wanted and needed that sparks hope but at that point wasn't enough to deter him from his lifelong goals. But he still wanted to salvage some of this, cause no one had ever looked at him like that before, like they wanted him there and were sad he wasn't staying, like they saw something worthwhile in him. He didn't wanna disappoint Omi completely, but what could he offer?

"But maybe sometime we're not fighting over Shen Gong Wu, we can all go for ice cream, my treat."

[johnny-2000s]

I figured out the perfect first film- join me to put it to script!!

[bobauthorman]

Omi’s Journey

In Season 1, Omi fainted at being told the other Chosen Ones were to teach him, and not the other way around.

In Season 2, he became jealous and resentful at Jermaine reaching Wudai Warrior before him.

But in Season 3, he accepts Raimundo’s promotion to Shoku Warrior and leader with peace and humility.

[fullofsunsetwhispers]

I think the reason the monks turned into such jerks to Jack including Omi was because of Omi town I don't even like Omi and I wanted to beat Jack butt for it. Because it was such a slap in the face to. Omi who tried to help Jack so many times gave Jack the benefit of the doubt was kind to him and believe Jack could be good when no one else did or would have

I understand your frustration, anon. It can be classified as 'one of the most jerkish things Jack has ever done in the series'.

However, (looks at my imaginary list titled 'Jack Spicer did some things wrong but these jerkish acts are justified)

No, don't get me wrong, I am in Jack's protection squad but I am capable of seeing his flaws. Yes, that's a horrible thing to do to the only person that tried to help you (see mainly the Apprentice but more examples could be found throughout the series). Even for a little kid!me that was something unbelievable to happen but now I blame the poor writing of the 3rd season for it. (I gotta cope somehow ok)

I would like to move on to 'Let's justify Jack' part. Maybe 'justify' is a strong word. He took part in that manipulation so it should not be excused BUT I'd point out something that intrigues me a little bit.

In Omi Town after defeating Omi's Mother, monks realize she's in fact a robot. Omi makes a face and everyone rush at Spicer with anger evident on their own faces.

What's Jack's immediate reaction when he gets circled by dragons in training?

He curls up in fear and exclaims: 'THEY MADE ME DO IT!'

Then, he proceeds to tell everyone gathered how that village was made in the first place and we got a short flashback with HB making jackbots look like Omi's relatives of some sort.

Tbh It struck me HOW Jack delivered that story. Usually, (especially in s1 and mid-s2) Jack boasts about his evil plans. He makes sure his enemies KNOW what steps were made to fool them because Jack this way wants to show them how his mind is superior in comparison to theirs. He's proud of each evil deed committed throughout the process (presumably because it builds up his self-esteem which is already in shambles)

Anywho, mind that during his story about the origins of the 'Village of Omi's robotic clones', he's serious. No evil laugh, no belittling Omi for falling for that.

Does that look like a face of a proud evildoer to you? No. He's being honest, and frankly to say, even sad.

The last sentence he utters after the flashback makes me even more convinced about his honesty.

He bends down to be more on Omi's level. He looks straight into his eyes, his brows furrowed worryingly. It almost looks as if Jack felt sorry for the Cheeseball.

'We figured if we break up the dream team, we can take all the wu!'

for Jack it's simple logic, mind you. Additionally, no one among the Heylins even considered Omi might come back to the temple. Jack was more than certain Omi would stay with the fake parents. He never meant to hurt Omi directly. Who knows? Maybe after robbing the temple vault, he would re-program the parent bots to change their minds and let Omi be the monk again (but these are my speculations)

Let's settle on what the overall message sounded like.

'They made me do it'

'They made me build other robots'

'Hannibal bean then used Moby Morpher to make MY robots look like your relatives. If you had any.'

There is more accusation of Wuya and HB in Jack's voice. As I mentioned earlier Jack takes pride in whatever evil he's up to. He's building the brand, or whatever, so it is vital to him to give credit to himself (and optional partners in crime of course). Here we see/hear he DOESN'T WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THAT PLAN. By constantly repeating 'not me. they made me do ---something-' he withdraws himself, which has never happened earlier in the series. (ok maybe that time with the evil snowman but whatever - you get my point)

Was he trying to save his own butt by putting the blame on Wuya and Roy? Oh, yes, he's a coward. But I dare to assume deep down he wasn't feeling ok with that scheme 100%. The way I see it, Jack went into 'survival mode', that is, he decided to act what other Heylins expect him to do so they won't hurt him in any other way. (Mind you he got a black eye at the beginning of the episode and got slammed against furniture by Wuya and HB and Wuya directly threatened him) Was he laughing with other baddies and taunting Omi during his showdown? Yes, but in a more ' I'm in a bad position so I can have a little fun with them' kinda way. Raiding the temple is one of jack's fav activities (lol) and he feels ok with it so his partners -Wuya and HB no longer were the same oppressors but more like a means that would help him get safely to the wu vault.

If we take into consideration the statement 'Jack from season 3 is a laughing stock and everyone seems to push him around' - this one applies here too. I'm of the opinion Jack was against Wuya and HB's intentions toward Omi but ultimately Jack yielded to their persuasions. Why? He was afraid. Out of fear, we tend to agree to things we would NOT normally agree to. Wuya even without her powers wrecked the boy good so she could've broken some of his bones as well. And with HB's help, they could do even far worse things to Jack. Let's not accuse Jack on the basis he wanted to protect himself - Wuya and HB are more to blame in this one.

Jack was simply USED in that scheme and robbed of resources (robots). More importantly, he built the whole village himself - I bet Wuya and HB didn't help him in these preparations. Jack was valuable to them in that very episode only because he was more like a useful tool rather than an ally, which is sad. (but tbh these little smiles Wuya and Jack exchanged were kinda cute)

To sum up, Jack is not entirely responsible for playing with Omi's feelings. He was the pawn, who in fact did the majority of the dirty work BECAUSE he was being threatened. That sort of manipulation Omi was the victim of was totally unfair especially if we consider that Jack-Omi bond from the series as a whole. However, in that very scene, we see glimpses of regret in Jack's mannerisms.

As a side note, I would like to point out, even if 'Omi Town' hurts me very much for Jack's betrayal of Omi's trust, I would like to see this being expanded on. For example, they should have a one-on-one talk in which they have a little quarrel, mentioning all the bad things they did to each other so they could just... talk this through and find some katharsis in their shared pain or sth.

To be fair, unlike the Xiaolin kids, Guan didn’t have a magical, flying dragon until mid-season 3. That is, if Chucky Choo could fly. And considering how fast said incidents resolved themselves...

During “Days Past” and “Citadel of Doom”

Guan: Oh no! Wuya has regained her powers! I must go! (Runs for a day) Oh, everything’s fine now. Never mind.

During “Judging/Finding/Saving Omi”

Guan: Omi has fallen to the Dark Side! I must go! (Runs for a day) Oh, everything’s fine now. Never mind.

You know, when you consider the fact that Guan didn't care to get involved when Wuya took over the world, when Chase took over the world, or when geriatric Jack took over the world, it makes it even MORE impressive that Omi successfully shamed Guan into doing the only proactive thing he'd do all series and fight Chase to help save Dojo and the kids.

World coming apart at the seams via Heylin magic? Zzzzz

This little kid looked down on me in disappointment and read me for filth? Guess it's finally time for that rematch with Chase.

Guan really wasn't gonna come out to help at all anytime the apocalypse happened but was perfectly willing to come and defend his "good name" when a small child called him out on being a weak-honored bitch.

(Might have a small headcanon that Omi reminded Guan of Dashi a bit in that moment and added to that motivation, but mostly I think he's just mad that Omi politely called him a weenie.)

Starsfic: Nothing More than Home

[Well, anything home related instantly reminds me of Omi so:]

Title: Nothing More than Home

Fandom: Xiaolin Showdown

Characters: Omi, Chase Young, Dojo Kanojo Cho, Master Fung,

Relationships: Omi & Chase Young, Omi & Master Fung, Omi & Dojo Kanojo Cho

Tags: Character analysis, existential crisis, comfort in the enemy,

Summary: As much as Omi pretends everything is alright after the events of ‘Omi Town’ he cannot shake the devastation that his emotions were left in In the wake of everything that occurred. He starts to question what a ‘home’ truly is and what it means to have one. Is the temple really his ‘home’ or is it just the place he was raised? Perhaps some other perspectives can help him sort out these complicated feelings…

21. 🌋 - Storm Hawks has a lot of serious undertones and themes such as war, death, slavery, poverty, etc. If the show ever has a re-boot, would you like these themes included?

On the one hand, I really want to say «Hell yeah!», but on the other, I may be the only one in the entire fandom who is not completely enthusiastic about the idea of a reboot. It's been 17 years, and given the current trends in consumer culture, there's a risk that the show might lose the old charm that made us love him. Yes, it has a lot of missed potential. Yes, it's finished on the frustrating cliffhanger. But what if the reboot doesn't meet our expectations? What if he becomes an unfunny parody of himself and loses everything that made him so special?

I understand that many fans are looking forward to the end of the Far Side storyline to see how it ends. Many people also hope that the new reboot will cover all the topics that were discussed in this question. And it's great that we're all on the same wavelength: after all, I fully share our enthusiasm. However, it should be recognized that often such expectations are dictated more by emotions than by rational analysis. People are signing a million petitions asking for a sequel, but let's be honest: it won't change much. No one cares about the show except a small group of enthusiasts who create their own sequels in the form of comics and fanfiction, and many of them do it better than most popular streaming services. This may sound harsh, but it's true.

Of course, you can cite the example of Samurai Jack, who received a great sequel in the form of season 5, but this is more of an exception to the rule than a worthy example. Survivorship bias often leads to the fact that we see only successful cases and forget about many others.

I'm not saying that a possible Storm Hawks reboot is instantly doomed to failure, but it's important to understand that a reboots always involves certain risks, including for fans. It may be bold and innovative, or it may take us a while to rethink some of the decisions made by the writers - no one knows for sure. It is important to understand whether you need this reboot or whether you would prefer to forget about him like a bad dream.

Never mind, though, I'm still going through the aftermath of the shitty reboot of Xiaolin Showdown.

I wanna talk about Hannibal Roy Bean

  Disclaimer: No disclaimer this time, only spite

  You see, I was writing a different rant about Xiaolin Showdown, but I was in the mood of searching and reading some posts other people made about the cartoon. You know, for funsies, and because I really love this show

  And then I thought to myself: “Hey, what if I search about my favorite villain, Hannibal Roy Bean? And who knows, maybe I’ll find other people talking about the amazing dynamic between him and Raimundo, that would be neat!”

  And you know what I found?

  Nothing. And even worse, I saw people dissing on my vegetable boy by calling him “unnecessary” and stuff

  Which left me utterly disappointed

  So, I’m gonna write an analysis for the possible Hannibal (& Raimundo) fans out there, which maybe will help other people appreciate this great villain

  Let’s go

  The best thing to start with is his introduction. Which honestly, it’s my favorite introduction from all of the villains in the show

  It gives you the expectation of being a big, strong and cool-looking foe, just like Chase was, and then it subverts that expectation with showing you that he’s actually a bean (which I personally find him cool for how creepy and unnatural he looks)

  And then you see how much of a threat he can be: he’s a great actor, he’s manipulative, and he’s pretty freaking strong. His personality is also so endearing for how unapologetically cruel, deceptive, playful, and full of himself he is. From the moment he said that he’ll cover his eyes to make the fight fair for the monks won me over

  And to top it all off, Chase himself tells the monks how big of a threat he is, which makes him even more interesting

  He has a 10/10 introduction and you can’t deny that

  And the next episode is also very good at showing the dynamic between Rai & Hannibal: they immediately start to talk back to each other, they’re paired together when each monk faces off an enemy, and Hannibal is quick to hit on Raimundo’s vulnerability by commenting on how he’s falling behind with the monks by being the last one to become an apprentice

  Not only this is a great way to show a possible rivalry between the two, this also works as foreshadowing for what’s to come

  Seriously, it feels like this show wants you to think of their possible relationship

  The next two episodes have the role of giving the monks new weapons, a future reason for them to temporarily go to Guan’s temple (by having Hannibal stealing the treasure), and they show how Raimundo can return to bad habits (aka his tendency of isolating/closing himself off from others after a failure), by going through a humiliating defeat from Jack right after they lost the treasure the episode before this one

  And then, we get to episode 46, which is another great episode of showing the dynamic between Hannibal & Raimundo: it shows how Hannibal is willing to team up with Rai (possibly because he sees potential in him), and we see how he’s being manipulative and sincere at the same time

  I believe in this instance Hannibal was genuine about forming a mutually beneficial relationship with Rai, which makes sense because he’s interested in people who are cunning, capable, mischievous and with the potential of causing great damage to others. And as we know that Hannibal was watching over everyone in his cell, he saw how much damage the kid can cause when he’s on the bad side

  Also, you could say that the previous episode showed Hannibal the possibility of manipulating Raimundo on his side, as the young monk fell back into a bad habit under distress

  So him getting betrayed by Rai, just like Chase betrayed him in the past, was a stepping stone for his hatred and desire of revenge towards the kid

  And this relationship is also interesting on Raimundo’s side in this episode: he clearly hates Hannibal’s guts and he doesn’t back down in showing attitude towards him, and at the end he shows great satisfaction of deceiving him, of winning over him, as he doesn’t want to even let him have the last words at the end

  Now, we get to episode 47, which is the peak of their relationship and brings me the main reason why I love Hannibal so much: he’s utterly ruthless. It’s not enough for him to fight the kid as revenge for what he did, he decides to mentally torment him. He decides to use Rai’s vulnerabilities to hurt his close ones, by combining Shen Gong Wus and attack the others while the boy’s asleep. The concept of it is brilliant. Like, what can he do? He can’t stay awake forever. And how would it feel for him if his friends ended up destroyed without being able to do anything about it?

  Also, the whole moment of Hannibal getting his way while he’s disguised as Kimiko is one of my favorite moments from the show, for the music, the ambience, and for Hannibal’s delighted smile (on Kimiko’s face to top it all off), as he sees Rai falling asleep

  Like, look at this

  It’s so unsettling, I love it

  And the fact that Raimundo is not even safe in his own dreams? The fact that Hannibal kept digging through his insecurities, through his vulnerability and shoved it on the kid’s face while showing he’s having a blast about it? Combined with how he can show pity in the form of friendliness and buddy-buddy behavior towards the person he’s tormenting, while also keeping a side of aggressiveness and lack of care from his actions? Brilliant, absolutely brilliant

  This guy gets entertainment from torturing people and I love this

  Raimundo was able to escape only after he acknowledges his vulnerability, only after he stops running away, which is a hard thing to do for him. One thing is certain after this episode, Rai will definitely not forget this

  And we later on see how Hannibal manipulates and makes use of others too: he uses Omi’s ego to turn him into a living battery for his own benefits, he doesn’t hesitate to turn Jack into a mindless zombie, and he uses Kimiko’s invention to attack Chase when he’s weak

  This guy doesn’t follow any moral code to get what he wants. He’s not like Chase, who holds value in professionalism and morality, and he’s not like Wuya, who holds a facade of elegance and principles

  And his bean design accentuates this fact, because it’s meant to show you how appearances can deceive, while letting you know that he’s not human. He doesn’t follow human principles and morals, and he doesn’t care for compassion or being fair, because he’s not human

  He’s his own thing, he’s pure evil

  And it’s so endearing for me, because you have the freedom to go as brutal as you want. Any possible interaction and dialogue I think of him is fun for me, because he’s so fun

  And his relationship with Raimundo is also so fun, for seemingly being arch nemesis with each other (which episode 52 also wants to show you this by being the ones to initiate the last showdown of the series and act like leaders in their group-)

  The way they view each other can be interpreted in so many ways, but I will tell you how I personally interpret it

  Starting off with Hannibal. I personally don’t think Rai is the person he hates the most, I think Chase is. Which is more obvious in episode 50, when his whole motivation is to defeat him. Heck, the fact that the episode is called “Hannibal’s Revenge” is kind of a proof of their deep hatred they have for each other

  Which makes sense, because Chase is the reason why he was trapped in a cell for over one thousand years, and I bet he spent a big portion of that time on growing his hatred towards him

  And Chase seems to feel the same way, which can be interpreted in different ways. Does he hate him because of being totally opposite of him, or there’s something more to it? What if there was more to their story than we know? What if Hannibal also had some ulterior motives in their team up? What if those reasons are related with what Chase said about him doing something worse than 1000 years of darkness? What if those possible motives were another (or the actual) reason why he betrayed him? It would make sense for Chase to hate him this much, if he found out that he was being used for some grand scheme

  Just some food for thought

  Going back to the subject, I think Hannibal doesn’t only hate Raimundo, he also gets delightment in tormenting him specifically. He enjoys breaking his confidence, and finding ways to beat him to the ground

  Honestly.. I’d say that’s because he reminds him of Chase. His attitude, his skills, and Rai betraying him, could bring to Hannibal some similarity with Chase

  Which is why he would get enjoyment from tormenting him: for Hannibal, Raimundo is like a small Chase Young, but the difference is that he’s a kid who doesn’t have hundreds of years of experience. He’s not as strong, and he’s more emotional, which makes him the perfect target. Hannibal can defeat him, strike into his insecurities and make him suffer on a personal level

  Personally, I think a continuation of the show would dwell more on Hannibal’s desire to inconvenience, and even destroy Rai’s life, purely for the enjoyment of it, and because of his semblance with Chase Young

  Now, let’s look at Raimundo’s possible view on Hannibal

  With him, I do think Hannibal is the person he hates the most

  I did read a good post on how he would actually hate Chase the most, because he was constantly doubtful and hostile towards him, starting from the first time they met in season 2. But personally, I think the hatred Rai has towards Chase is more on an instinctual level. Like, he knows he can’t be trusted, that he’s up to something that he doesn’t know (and he definitely doesn’t like Chase’s superior attitude)

  But aside from this + the fact that he tried to eat Dojo & he manipulated his friend, I don’t think there’s more to this. Especially because he showed a similar behavior with Hannibal as well. But because Hannibal appeared only on season 3 (which also has fewer episodes than the second season), it may seem that he has a bigger hatred towards Chase than the evil bean

  Also, that hatred he has may be changed in the present, because it’s highly possible the monks got at least some of the memories from that alternate dimension. So it’s possible that Rai will hate Chase while having complicated emotions towards him as well, because he would have to deal with the memories he has of Chase being a good guy

  On the other hand, I think his hatred towards Hannibal is personal for multiple reasons: he’s the reason they have to deal with Chase Young (and the reason they had to deal with Guan in the alternate dimension), he used his friends, he’s dwelling on his insecurities and most importantly, he went into his mind in order to use him to hurt his close ones

  Rai has every reason to hate him, and I think this hatred will only intensify the more Hannibal tries to mess up with him

  And this has so much potential

  So yeah, this is my take on their relationship & Hannibal’s character! The fact that many people overlook him is so unfortunate, because he’s a literal goldmine for creating conflict and explore an inhuman & ruthless characters

  Some of my favorite fanfictions with Xiaolin Showdown have him done right, even if they’re few and unfinished. And who knows, maybe one day I’ll get to see more people trying to explore this character & his interesting dynamic with Raimundo

  But until then, I’m happy that such an interesting and fun villain exists!

I would love to see a psycho analysis on Jack Spicer!!

Now that I'm getting back in the swing of things, don't count Jack out! I'm trying to alternate between redoing old ones and doing new ones. He's one I've wanted to do for a long, long while (as well as some of the other Xiaolin Showdown villains).

The CCP’s Psychological Warfare

Based on my observation and in my view, the CCP’s Psychological Warfare is part of its Info-Warfare waged mostly on the western social media to indoctrinate, mislead, and propagate in a very deceit and hard to detect way and the result is stunning. 

Let’s flash back to 2011 when the West wasn’t paying enough attention to the CCP’s eager to its global hegemony and so-called “rejuvenation” dream and the “corner overtaking”/弯道超车 strategy through the intellectual property infringement, Dr. Lu Xiaolin, a Chinese scientist in the US, published a paper saying “‘stealing’ great ideas, and applying them to a suitable and most desired situation... When one or more industries make breakthroughs in resolving their particular challenges or constraints, other industries could benefit by ‘stealing’ the best”, he even raised a question: “So why not steal more?” While readers at that time may have taken it as a joke, the article set the tone of the CCP’s intellectual property stealing strategy for the following decades. 

(https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1327297751248416771)

As for the “corner overtaking”/弯道超车 strategy that corresponds to Mr. Ren Zhengfei(Huawei’s CEO)’s famous quote: “as long as the money is in place, a no-talent will become a talent”, I think the brazen wolf-like stealing behaviors presented in the T-Mobile v. Huawei case made a good example of the strategy.

As for other big favor the wife of Dr. Lu Xiaolin did for the CCP in the American territory, please refer to the blog below:

The CCP’s “Sink the Ship” Plan and The Thucydides Trap

A recent example comes from the joint-statement of Russia and China. While people may believe the statement that “ Russia needs a prosperous and stable China, and China needs a strong and successful Russia” is just a diplomatic cliché, 

(https://www.china-briefing.com/news/the-putin-xi-summit-their-joint-statement-and-analysis/)

an article published on a CCP mouthpiece website “红歌会”, dated April 18, 2023 gives the true meaning behind the words: no military aid to Russia is the only exception and China is doing everything else to help Russia. If you want to dismember and destroy Russia, you step on China’s bottom line.

(https://m.szhgh.com/Article/opinion/xuezhe/2023-04-18/325059.html)

https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1651767450315247617

Further explanation given by a CCP warrior on March 23, 2023 in a Twitter Space says that “China does not need to provide weapons to Russia, except raw materials. Russia’s own capacity is sufficient, as long as they keep their machines working. China provides Russia with production chain supply for military products and daily necessities...” It’s not an odd or personal opinion but the true voice of the CCP, I believe.  You may find the original voice from 2:39 of the video below:

https://rumble.com/v2h4hyk-exclusive-report-its-worse-than-you-think-the-ccps-weaponizing-the-west....html

If you still believe this is just a “co-incident”, please check another “co-incident” between the CCP warrior @cbl2008hx8964 (likely associated with @BL90942512 , a Twitter influencer doing many favors for the CCP )and Mr. Lu Shaye,  Chinese Ambassador to France:

https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1650520591458344960

As you can see, the important message is sent in a hilarious or cliché way, some times mixed with false information, so that you wouldn’t pay attention to it until you wake up and find it’s too late.

What I found disturbing is that the CCP may have started the Psychological Warfare in the West long time ago. Beside the effort to infiltrate into almost every pro-democracy or anti-CCP associations/groups, evidence shows that the CCP started to control who can go abroad long time ago, slowly changing the structure of the over-sea Chinese population to ensure the basis of the CCP's United Front. The CCP knew what kind of applicants can easily get their asylum application passed: Christians, Falun gong practitioners, Uyghurs, LGBT people, HongKongers, etc. and they developed a system and channels cross China and the western countries to send CCP warriors under those cloaks with all faked materials. Here is what I heard in Twitter Spaces: a man came to the US from Xinjiang in around 2020 and got his legal status very quickly via the asylum program. He said he was in prison in Xinjiang but he also revealed that he had constantly visited a Youtuber's live streaming shows while he was in China. To many people’s knowledge, for ordinary people, access western social media like YouTube or Twitter will risk being criminally charged in China but he seemed having no such problem and he was allegedly in prison. Further more, he quickly got a security guard job in the US. While having lots of time on Twitter, his account is associated with many CCP-proxy-acting people. So I am wondering his experience in a prison of Xinjiang was as a prisoner or a prison guard? Did he lie to the American authority? If he was able to access YouTube when he was in China, what may be his mission to the US? 

Due to the training mechanism of the PLA, Police and the Ministry of State Security(MSS) , their staff members or family members are believed to have better loyalty to the CCP but the lack of professional background becomes their major challenge to go abroad through the normal immigration process. I was shocked by the majority proportion of the PLA or China’s Police background people who chat in Twitter Spaces day and night.

How did they come to the western countries?

In the following videos, you will hear how the American asylum system is being abused( from 6:32):

https://rumble.com/v2h4hyk-exclusive-report-its-worse-than-you-think-the-ccps-weaponizing-the-west....html

In another video (I will make it available as soon as possible), you will hear Jinyi S.B.( @dbysjwlblthztms ), Chinese-American acting as the CCP’s wolf-warrior on Twitter, mostly in Twitter Spaces, big-mouthed how to fake as Fa Lungong practitioner and get the legal status in the America. As per her own introduction, she was born in a family of a high-ranking officer of the PLA, came to the US and managed to marry to an American man. Her husband passed away of an unnatural death few years after their marriage. She recently passed the SSA’s interview, receives a generous retirement income benefited from her dead husband and planned to use these benefits to trade a man from China to have a new marriage. She specified that she prefer a PLA soldier. All of these sound reasonable until you connect the dots and see a pattern of sending PLA warriors to the America and maximizing the abuse of the American systems and resources.

(https://twitter.com/dbysjwlblthztms/status/1651788333310447616)

Mr. David Clements once said in an interview that “in (American) universities, we got Confucius institutions. There is a reason why they use Confucius instead of Mao, because when you think of Confucius, you think of the fortune cookie, something that is innocent...” The result is that while the students and the authorities thought it was a pure language training, the students are being indoctrinated as to the wonders of the Communist China, a perfect result of the ideology warfare and of the psychological warfare.

Similar to this, I found many Twitter accounts appear to be pro-freedom advocates but their true cyber-behavior is to propagate the CCP’s wolf culture.  @Hydra_largHive, a Twitter account of which the profile bio says “ Liberate Hong Kong and fight against the CCP” liked a tweet posted “Those who offend our territorial waters fall into the sea. The US military broke into our South China Sea, when the helicopter landed, it rolled over and fell into the sea. Everyone forwarded and congratulated to each other!”

(https://twitter.com/xxf58112/status/1650110982381789186)

A music account, @xsh860510, who used Teresa Teng (Taiwanese singer) as its bio photo, actually propagates the PLA arts.

(https://twitter.com/xsh860510/status/1651531106750013440)

(https://twitter.com/xsh860510/status/1651166881208737793)

All is about the CCP’s cyber-warriors knew people usually check the account bio to find the standpoint and they fool people as always, plus, based on what I heard in Twitter Spaces, many of them use the false profile to fish real dissidents and collect their information to the CCP. For further information, you may click the blog below:

Twitter Spaces: A Window to Better Understand the CCP

One purpose of the CCP’s psychological warfare is to cover the true colors of the CCP’s agents, making it difficult for detectives to obtain evidence and meet the standards for prosecution. While foreign agent work is generally considered as the exclusive preserve of foreign nationals, the CCP tends to recruit/coerce/intimidate Chinese-Americans into this dirty work. From what I heard in Twitter Spaces, they believe that the US citizenship is the best shield of protection, because once they become US citizens, they will be entitled to all the privileges that the US government grants to their citizens and it’s almost realistically impossible to be deported. 

Coco Resch, aka Qin Xiaoying, is one of the very wild CCP agent-acting warriors on Twitter, calling to kill people and to show loyalty to Xi government. What she brags often in Twitter Spaces is “I am an American citizen!”

https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1572609204212609024 https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1572677612765585413 https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1573340425561280512

She was arrested on Dec. 4, 2022 for threatening a man in front of his house and live-streaming her threat. While she made real threats to people, other CCP warriors among her allies called her “crazy, with mental issues” to cover up the criminal nature of her actions. It reminds me of the assassination of Li Jinjin on March 14, 2022 by Xiaoning Zhang, in which case, in contrary to her “anti-CCP protester image”, she shouted out support for the CCP. Many CCP propagandists were spreading mental defect defense for her on Twitter and YouTube.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10624053/Chinese-student-accused-killing-activist-lawyer-yells-support-Chinese-Communist-Party.html

Whereas her “protest show” in the US against Beijing’s police was this:

Here is my discovery in Li Jinjin’s case:

https://rumble.com/vxqfsv-connect-the-dots-of-li-jinjins-assassination.html

Such a U-turn in position often happens to CCP agents, because it is their normal work to play a completely different face. In my experience, Coco Resch, aka Qin Xiaoying, Jinyi Song Brush and others, they all turned to their pro-CCP standing after they had approached me as “sympathy for dissidents”.

My exclusive video report:

https://rumble.com/v2r0d3x-the-ccps-even-more-wild-illegal-agents-activities-on-twitter.html

On May 28, 2023, Coco Resch had @5FpezFASUxCIGaB to release her medical document proving that she had been temporarily held in a mental health center for 72 hours after she was arrested for threatening a person near his house.  @5FpezFASUxCIGaB also announced her trip to Europe which means she is now in good mental condition. 

https://twitter.com/5FpezFASUxCIGaB/status/1662976481474285568/photo/1

Coco Resch also liked @5FpezFASUxCIGaB’s tweet releasing her message to him, saying “Team leader Gao/高组长, if there is anything you need me to shout out, just tell me, I promise to accomplish missions.”

https://twitter.com/5FpezFASUxCIGaB/status/1662982959484502016/photo/1

People may ask, why is she willing to disclose her alleged "mental disorder" medical file and promised to "accomplish missions"? Normal people wouldn’t do that. Here's the answer she posted by herself: she used the paper as a "certificate of insanity" and legal immunity for crimes like threatening and killing certain people that her boss may order her to eliminate.

Who is  @TreeNewbee2019?

He asked my photo from Coco Resch and released it without my consent. It violated Twitter’s rules, and yet, Twitter didn’t give him any effective punishment. Please click the link below to watch my video and find further details.

More important, the location that he gave in his profile is the address of the Public Security Bureau of Shanghai! Several indictment cases show that releasing personal information is a tactic often used by the CCP’s Transnational Police Operation Agents to intimidate dissidents and that is exactly what these CCP thugs did to me!

If we connect it with the fact that “at least one agent of China intelligence service on the payroll inside of Twitter”, we will know why  @TreeNewbee2019, representing the CCP’s police, didn’t get punished for his violation on Twitter.

For those who joined in or plan to join in the CCP’s Belt and Road Initiative, they may hear that the CCP’s “Major Country Diplomacy” is to assume a greater leadership role for global affairs, but what they don’t understand is the CCP’s controlling culture: offering you what you need and use it to control, manipulate, slave and intimidate you, you will never be able to talk with them with dignity but listen to them which in their words:“你就是我的一条狗/you’re one of my dogs”:

Why let an authoritarian regime to dominate the world is dangerous? Because they have no idea of respect, liberty, and the laws, what they mastered is to understand the human nature and developed a coercion strategy to control people. 

When the CCP was amazing the world with its 5G and smart-city technology, they totally ignored people’s fundamental rights to argue and defend themselves over any legal issue. An Australian man who lives in Nanjing jaywalked, caught by the city’s facial recognition system, got a fine to his WeChat. Moreover, within 20 seconds, his money for the fine came straight out, without asking his consent or whatsoever. See the video below from 5:38

The CCP’s  Psychological Warfare targets not only the Western people, but also the CCP members and people of China to strengthen their loyalty to the CCP. PUA, a seduction science or study of charisma is widely used by many MSS cyber operatives.  Coco Resch, aka Qin Xiaoying, Chinese-American in Florida, has been threatening oversea Chinese people to show loyalty to Beijing: “To all of the oversea anti-Xi traitors, you are all being caught...... Hope you can make a plea agreement with Xi Jinping government.”

While she was acting as the CCP’s oversea police, she also claimed that she “was assisting” the FBI, that CBL( @BL90942512) is FBI’s "senior detective/高级探员" ，but in fact CBL’s Twitter activities are clearly in favor of the CCP, and that what she’s been doing is part of the co-operation between the FBI and the CCP, which is obvious non-sense.

If you think Coco Resch may be too stupid and that’s why she was bullshitting around, you’re wrong. In fact, many people who heard her conversation in Twitter Spaces concluded that her IQ is above the average.  So what made her to say things like “it’s impossible to ask CBL @BL90942512 to apologize to you, no way! You’re not only not entitled to ask his apology, you shall kneel down and beg his forgiveness! CBL is my spiritual leader, or soul mate, the one I love! I can hurt everyone just for him. I can break any promise or whatsoever, do anything for him.” See the video below from 1:35？

 On March 7, 2023, a video posted by CBL revealed that Cheng Binlin, aka 成斌麟 @cbl2008hx8964 admitted that the twitter account CBL @BL90942512 is his account and he used that Twitter account to create a fictional character on Twitter.

Coco Resch made many private messages between her and CBL public, based on the information in the messages and what Yuan Jianbin revealed in the video below, as well as other evidence to prove the close relationship between Cheng Binlin and Yuan Jianbin, it’s reasonable to believe that they work as a team, used the CBL account PUA Coco Resch until she became a puppet to intimidate oversea Chinese people on the Internet while they walked away with impunity!

As the CCP mastered human nature, they torture the political prisoners not only physically but psychologically. Even if the CCP may release some of them under the pressure of international human rights organizations, they are “smart” to develop all possible means to make them “socially dead/社会死亡”, or live in a miserable condition that is not better than death.

When the COVID19 initially broke out in Wuhan and the city was shutdown, the CCP did everything to cover up the unprecedented lethal pandemic and the rest of the world could hardly learn the truth from China’s government. Fang Bin was a whistleblower hero just like Dr. Li Wenliang, reported what happened in Wuhan with his camera but he disappeared from the public in February 2020.

He was recently released after 3 years in prison. His sentence was set in a secret trial. According to multiple sources on Twitter,

he was escorted by Wuhan police to his son’s home in Beijing and then sent back to Wuhan by Beijing police. It seems that he is deemed as nuisance or burden and no local authority wants him within their jurisdiction. His sister in Wuhan must have been under the same pressure and wouldn’t willing to offer him shelter. Before his disappearance in February 2020, he was an entrepreneur and had a home in Wuhan, but the CCP made him a homeless person and no relatives are willing to take care of him. We don’t know what kind of torture Mr. Fang suffered in prison but we saw what the CCP is doing after his release: desperately isolating him from any social connection he may have, psychologically torturing him while he seems physically free, created a circumstance and push him to "socially die". By intimidating his relatives not to approach him, the CCP cut him off from his next-of-kin and other social connections. I believe the following tweet is the message that the CCP is trying to send out to intimidate other fighters: “Wake up, no matter Fang Bin/方斌, Xu Zhiyong/许志永, or Ding Jiaxi/丁家��, their imprisonment will not cause any disturbance in the mainland of China. Even if their close family members, will not be proud of them, but be annoyed, ashamed and pissed off because of them”.

Another Tweet said: “using a ‘soft knife’ to cut Fang Bin slowly... goes after his relatives and friends, similar to the factional struggle in the upper echelons of the CCP, starting with the target’s surrounding people and eventually making Fang Bin “socially dead”, very insidious!”

I don’t know what distracted the West when the CCP started implementing its intellectual property theft strategy decades ago, here is what came to my attention: while we all admit that Hong Kong is no longer it was, particularly not a key international financial center any more, following the CCP's brutal suppression of Hong Kong Protests in 2019, many people didn't notice that the CCP has already aimed at “digital financial services”, crypto investments, restarting Hong Kong at a new level. AMTD Group @AMTDGroup is an example.  It follows only 4 accounts: its chairman Calvin Choi, Hong Kong SAR Government News, Hong Kong Govt Press Releases and NYSE that “connect to a world of opportunity”. Calvin Choi follows and is followed back by  Mario Nawfal  @MarioNawfal, Elon Musk’s buddy who is “host of Twitter’s Largest Spaces”. Beside hosting Twitter Spaces mostly on crypto investment, Nawfal also propagates in favor of Russia which “co-incidentally” consists with Elon Musk’s standing: “ a Russia-China alliance is inevitable. It will grow much stronger over time.”

Like “Made-In-China” became the icon of low-quality, CCP’s hands in the crypto business does not seem a good omen. Beside the mafia-alike murder reports below, I saw people saying that the crypto market in China is full of scam and mafia extortion.
