I believe this at least partially driven by internal politics. Dr. Xi was very, very unpopular. The reaction to his indictment on the Temple University subreddit was very indicative of this.

There is only one reddit user in that thread that said his students hate him. I hope you have other sources that shows he is "very very unpopular".

The comments on that reddit link are so vicious.

Yet also so vague. That was a weird thread.

This entire affair seems to be an exercise in telling half the story and seeing how different people react. We're never told what set the Feds on Xi's trail in the first place, and that might be important.

Before we make allegations about someone personally, I think we should have better evidence than a Reddit thread.
