Pretty hilarious that Xi Jinping is one of the only persons personally named in the Epstein files and it ends up being a flex.
Epstein apparently really hated him and the entire Chinese leadership which he haughtily described - here in a conversation with Steve Bannon - as "a group of peasants."
He seems to have been particularly incensed that these "peasants looked into their own systems, found the NSA cybertools that we had inserted and then used them against US interests."
As the saying goes, you judge a man by his enemies...
(incidentally, it's not true that "Xi barely has highschool education": he has a PhD in Marxist theory from Tsinghua University, as well as an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering)
