Evidence that Dolores Umbridge works for the Chinese Government
No reincarnation without the government's permission. This law seems so Ministry of Magic, don't you think?
You know, after hearing that a Chinese executive responsible for the lead toys killed himself recently in addition to sentencing a Chinese official to death for taking bribes to allow unsafe drugs on the market, I was starting to romanticize China a bit. I allowed myself to daydream how cool it would be if corporate execs and government officials who were responsible for the deaths of innocents would voluntarily take themselves out, or be put to death.
But hearing news that the Chinese government also imprisoned environmental activists and the recent reincarnation law (allowing the government to select the next Dalai Lama) has brought me back to my senses. I will no longer harbor such romantic notions of the powerful being punished for their egregious abuses of power.
