11.01.2026The Day of the Cave House Question
On January 11, 2026, Chinese state media outlets coordinated a major ideological shift, moving from the previous day's celebration of the police to a focused campaign on internal Party discipline. Throughout the morning, central organs including People's Daily, CCTV, and Xinhua saturated their platforms with references to the "Cave House Question"—a historical allegory used by Xi Jinping to demand self-revolution and anti-corruption efforts to ensure the Party's survival. This domestic ritual was paired with a populist narrative framing Xi as a "servant of the people."
By early afternoon, the editorial focus expanded to include a synchronized diplomatic outreach campaign. State editors prioritized Xi’s correspondence with American youth delegations, framing people-to-people exchanges as the primary mechanism for stabilizing relations with the United States. Simultaneously, external and Hong Kong-based sources such as SCMP and VOA highlighted developments the domestic press ignored, including the escalation of anti-theocratic protests in Iran and the diplomatic fallout from U.S. military actions in Venezuela.
