The meme was created by Chinese bloggers, who used it to mock Xi despite heavy monitoring and censorship. If anything, perpetuating it is a show of support of Chinese dissenters.

You are not a Chinese blogger.

It honestly depends, some VPN companies like to use it to refer him but don’t want to piss off the Ccp so they blocked all their servers.
