He has garnered attention for his critiques of the Communist Party's approach to youth engagement and political indoctrination. In a recent interview, which was subsequently censored, Xu highlighted the apathy among young Chinese people towards politics and national identity, attributing it to the disillusionment stemming from China's economic challenges and a perceived loss of direction. His observations reflect a broader generational shift, where many young individuals feel disconnected from traditional socialist values and instead focus on personal fulfillment and existential questions.
