On September 29, Beijing Institute of Technology issued a notice announcing that Pei Yi, an assistant professor at the university's School of Law, had been formally dismissed for allegedly promoting "extreme feminism" and other related activities. Following the news, related hashtags such as "BIT teacher Pei dismissed" quickly became trending topics on Weibo, sparking heated discussions both domestically and internationally.
Therefore, some suspect that Pei Yi's sudden expulsion may have been because her discussion of the gender composition of the CCP's top leadership touched a sensitive nerve in the CCP's political structure, hitting a sore spot for the CCP and Xi Jinping. As a result, the academic issues she discussed in class eventually evolved into "political stance issues."
