So....is Xi a dictator or not?

There's a big bru-ha going on now over that remark. I suppose that the word is open to interpretation.

China says Biden comments likening leader Xi to a dictator 'extremely absurd and irresponsible'

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Biden’s comments “go totally against facts and seriously violate diplomatic protocol, and severely infringe on China’s political dignity.”

He is leader for life, you decide.

Dictator or not by an American's definition, his government has elevated hundreds of millions of his people up out of poverty. That success has never been equalled by any other socially leaning government or government leader.

What is an American president that has allowed world record income inequality, corruption, and extreme racism?

So... I'm not sure what fits the definition exactly. He would seem to fit for all intents and purposes.
I suppose some would disagree.

Can we expound? I must confess to bring somewhat uninformed on the matter. I suppose it boils down to public etiquette and international acumen when it comes to relations between nations. Was it careless of Biden to speak that way?

The internal affairs of foreign countries are none of our business. The Chinese rulers are right in the assertion that this Ding-Dong Diplomacy of Bye,Done is bad diplomatic manners. They're really into formality and indirection over there, so the Clown-in-Chief's behavior fits the definition of a Bull in a China Shop.

Have you ever noticed that the heads of state and other countries are all usually highly educated people with some type of private sector background?
