Chinese citizens protest Covid restrictions

[Saltwater60]

I had a Chinese kid over my house for thanksgiving and he said it’s really bad over there. He said lots of mandatory testing and they go back to everyone you had contact with, then another step, then another step and forced lockdowns. He said where he lives there are only two entrances and they literally lock you in. He also said when he came here they had one social media ap finally and it’s obviously monitored. He also said upon arrival here he had to take a video call with the local police to show that he arrived where he claimed and his dorm room. I said I’d refuse and he said well funny thing is his parents were locked in the police station until he did that and his parents would be jailed if he didn’t. I was surprised by the storied he told. I thought some of the media interpretation was embellished but it appears not to be.

It's for the children.

China is asshole.

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

China is 1984's wet dream.

It really is as bad as you hear. Look up what's happening in foxxcon right now. Pure chaos. It's happening on many places and for the Chinese citizens to stand up like that and riot when they know almost certainly it's a regime death sentence to be disappeared shows how bad it is.

I still can't quite figure out why china is still obsessing over their zero covid on a virus that is nearly harmless now.

Their economy is being ravaged by their policies.

@Saltwater60 what did the Chinese kid think? Just curious if he gave you his opinions on what was going on over there or how open he was with you.

Did he like that things are more or less back to normal here?

Interesting. Will the need to crush the internal rebellion delay the invasion of taiwan?

It's only 6 feet... it's only 2 weeks... it's only a mask... it's only a "vaccine"... back to sleep sheep.

He hates China. He will not return there and I think his family left. They were all born in India and emigrated to China for a better future for their kids. Now that their kids are grown up and have left China they are all leaving. He said he will stay in the USA or go to Germany. He especially thought the Covid restrictions were extreme and he did not wear a mask at my house.
The one thing he praised China on was the crime rate and how low it is. He did their punishments are swift and severe so you normally don't dare. He also liked the cost of goods and services in China. He said you can get a nice meal for $0.05 USD but he has what he claimed to be a good job over there and make $2.85/hour. I told home what my property taxes are and he said that’s what we pay for four apartments per year in China.
So to answer your question he’s not happy there but misses the cost of goods, but incomes seem to match that for the most part.

For the same reason heil hochul and dementia joe keep extending their emergency powers.

POWER.

That's what is all boils down to. Not safety, not health, not any mamby-pamby feel good bullshit. Pure, unadulterated, power.

When you have the power to keep families locked up for months, EVEN WHEN THE BUILDING IS BURNING DOWN, then you have absolute power.

 

[GOPerfect]

I think it is awesome when the people, wherever this occurs, step up to a tyrannical government. In the case of China, the Communist Chinese are brutal. These uprisings, these protests by only a few thousand people are going to go nowhere.

I wish them the best, but this is their doing. They allowed themselves to be sheep and cattle of their governmental system. The Chinese government will allow this to go on for a short period, the government will tell these people to go back to their homes and if they don't this government will squash them.

I am not a pessimist, but this little uprising is going to fail miserably for the Chinese people.

Rubber bullets perhaps? Is anyone really shocked the CCP would do this to squash any uprising?

I saw on the news this morning an American journalist was arrested and this is exactly what I thought of. They arrested this journalist so they could shoot protesters. Never give up your guns guys because this is the outcome.

It's ok. The UN human rights council will take action....

This is the Chinese citizens chance to make or break. I find it interesting that in a population of 1.4 billion, that so few are willing to fight for rights. My guess is that so many are absolutely dependent on the state for everything, they are so remote that they don't even know, are brainwashed into worshipping the state, just don't care, or some combination. I offer my prayers in their support, however it is their battle to fight. We are busy here in the USA with our own.

UN is useless as you eluded to.

I'm not necessarily doubting this could be happening but I am finding nothing to corroborate this. Anyone else....?

Sounds like the CCP took care of that.

I Hope you're right. I want to be wrong.

But china is remarkably good at suppressing information they don't want getting out, and, they're authoritative assholes.

So it's entirely possible or even likely they are mowing down their citizens to quell the riots.

Probably due to pride. But normally the Chinese put that aside and exercise more tact and cunning than they are doing now. I'm surprised.

We don't hear the half of what is going on in the world. Our media is fully corrupt.

As for China and their lock downs, it's all coming here with the next pandemic. The world will be going through a major power shift and the people will not get in the way.

I read the reason for the protest was a apartment building caught fire with Covid patients inside, the doors were welded shut to keep people from getting out.

and if the UN is involved, thats a huge joke all on its own.

you can't have UN-ethical, without UN
If there is a emergency somewhere in the world, the UN will be nearby, doing nothing
ring-ring ~~~Hello, you have reached the United Nations, if this is an emergency, please hang-up and dial America

 

[CaseHardened]

Protests in China are fruitless.

Dictators will never change unless they are at the receiving end of a steel barrel.

China is building covid concentration camps.

No joke. No conspiracy theory.

As no Chinese Citizens own firearms, they are doomed.

And quit protesting in the streets.

You hunt down the people who are enabling the oppression and you kill them in their sleep.

Fighting the cops in the street during a protest is fighting the fight your enemy wants to have.

You fight the fight that they are terrified of instead.
