The videos coming out of China show that the simmering rage has now reached a boil. What triggered it? Sure there's the growing frustration with gratuitous Zero Covid lockdowns, but the timing of the World Cup is revealing. In live broadcasts, Chinese citizens saw large crowds
@mfl_normal @MsMelChen Some of these people protesting will get Covid; some will get long Covid. But just as with the George Floyd protests, sometimes the injustice is so great, it is worth risking your health
@mfl_normal @MsMelChen Your children missed school. But they were not killed by the police. You were not locked into your house or threatened with prison. Try to get some sense of proportion. We have all suffered in one way or another
@tdietterich @mfl_normal @MsMelChen I guess they didn’t get high on fentanyl and point guns at pregnant women either 🤷♂️🤣🤡🌍
