China’s Revolt Against Zero-Covid
The Wall Street Journal comments on China’s Revolt Against Zero-Covid
China’s Communist Party runs the world’s most extensive surveillance and police state, so any public protest against its policies takes courage and runs great personal risk. That’s all the more reason to recognize the widespread demonstrations that broke out this weekend against the Chinese government’s draconian zero-Covid restrictions.
They reveal the public’s deep frustration after three years of the world’s most restrictive Covid policies that have shut down entire cities for weeks and months on government orders without public debate or recourse.
The trigger for the protests seems to have been an apartment fire in Urumqi, in Xinjiang province. Fire trucks reportedly had difficulty getting access to put out the fire, which killed 10. Xinjiang has been under its most recent Covid lockdown since August, and it is the Western province where Beijing has imposed mass confinement and re-education of the Uyghur Muslim minority.The protests spread quickly throughout China as young people in particular went to the streets. Some held blank sheets of paper, which has become a symbolic protest against the restrictions on speaking against the Covid coercion and other abuses.
Enough is Enough
Down with Xi Jinping!
People were shouting: “Down with the Communist Party! “Down with Xi Jinping!” “We want freedom!”
Every of these slogans is enough to send a person to jail for 10 years or even a life risk.
Do You Dare? She Did.
End the Lockdowns
In Beijing, residents of dozens of compounds have organized themselves to challenge the lockdown enforcers and demand them to reopen the locked entrance. It seems that they have all succeeded, including Tiantongyuan, a massive community with 300,000 residents.

That’s the reason why there is no organized 2A groups going around shooting police stations.
You cannot compare what is happening in China to the USA, because it’s not happened in the USA. If it did, yes, there would be organized revolt by people carrying actual weapons besides knives. Obviously it isn’t happening here at all because the reason for it to happen does not exist.
You want wokeness to defend your diminutive obesity… but there ain’t no wokeness here.
find enough evidence to suggest that a massacre took place on the
Square.”
however it was later proven that he had already left the square several
hours before the events he claimed to have happened. Records by the Tiananmen Mothers suggest that three students died in the Square the night of the army’s push into the Square. Taiwan-born Hou Dejian was present in the square to show solidarity with the students and said
that he did not see any massacre occurring in the square. He was quoted
by Xiaoping Li, a former China dissident to have stated: “Some people
said 200 died in the square, and others claimed that as many as 2,000
died. There were also stories of tanks running over students who were
trying to leave. I have to say I did not see any of that. I was in the
square until 6:30 in the morning.”
In 2011, three secret cables from the United States embassy in Beijing agreed there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square… “
such willful ignorance and drama…
I have many friends who live in China and people regularly disappear there after protesting. It’s not announced in the news because the media is state controlled. People who oppose the government simply disappear and no one is allowed to talk about it.
merely selfish with assorted cranks, pushed together under the pressure
of lockdown. But this is not the case… and suggest that the recent tendency of fringe and conspiracist
positions to rapidly seed and burst into mainstream politics won’t be
ending any time soon”
“At a recent anti-lockdown protest in London, thousands of people gathered to oppose what they saw as a
clandestine power grab taking place under the cover of a pandemic. Some
protesters carried cardboard signs bearing the name of the alleged
takeover: “The great reset”. “They thought they could easily get their
great reset,” one man shouted. “Little did they know! The pandemic’s a hoax!”
The great reset… this conspiracy imagines that a global elite is using Covid-19 as an opportunity to roll out radical policies such as forced
vaccinations, digital ID cards and the renunciation of private property.”
