Summary
China executed two men involved in separate mass killings in November 2024.
Fan Weiqu, 62, killed 35 and injured 45 in a car-ramming attack in Zhuhai, motivated by frustration over his divorce.
Days later, Xu Jiajin, 21, fatally stabbed 8 and injured 17 at a vocational school in Wuxi after failing exams and struggling with low pay.
Analysts link rising “revenge on society” attacks to economic struggles and social discontent.
Forced disappearance and censorships of such acts is what they do to political people so they don’t become a martyr.
These are mass murderers so there would be zero sympathy from the people, so its very safe to just execute and announce it to the public and use the fear of death to “maintain order”
