It's taking bribes from the wrong people, not taking bribes in general.
Who the right people and the wrong people are, shifts and changes with the internal political winds. China, despite being a one-party state, has many internal factions vying for more control and influence. Things like stringing a guy up under bribery charges is less about him committing a crime and more about him being on the wrong side and getting caught "flat-footed" so to speak in political warfare.
Think about how the democrats keep trying to impeach trump, or defend incredible amounts of corruption by neocohens et al. It doesn't matter what is "true" or "false", what matters is having the power to enact your political ambitions and goals.
The political dynamics of china are no different than any other human organization. It's all the same political bullshit and theatre and drama.
Things only change when you recognize and realize that it's drama and theatre and politics and power games, and that a news release about wumbo jumbo being executed for corruption does not necessarily mean he was actually accepting bribes, nor that accepting bribes will always get you executed.
This is what sets autists apart from normies. Normies can't tell, normies think the system is foolproof and deterministic. Autists however can see past the bullshit and understand what they are presented with is not what is necessarily the truth. A lot of society is revolves around normies being too stupid to see the elephants in the room while powerless autists scream, beg, and cry for them to see it and pay attention to what's fucking going on, and powerful autists manipulating/influencing/whipping normies into seeing or not seeing the elephants.
