Yuma, agreed!

I doubt this is a repudiation of XI and the iron fist, they've lived under since Mao. I think these people see the dog whistles on social media and the fake news, about the 'new" round of health scares...and are scared to death of being welded in their buildings and starved again or the risk of of being burned to death.

I would think if Xi wanted to immediately disperse the crowds, without firing a shot, he need only make an announcement, that there will be no welded doors or unreasonable lockdowns and the government would make sure the people had a 2 lb bag of rice per day.

Poof, people would go home. Only the most militant would stay and continue...and then be drug off to re-education camps.

Of course XI won't, because he'd see that as weakness, in the face of the enemy.

They aren't protesting China and it's system, they just don't want to be made into sardines again.

I wish we were both wrong, but we aren't. The longer I think about this, the more it sounds true. I think Tiananmen Square broke most of what was left of their spirit. What I wonder is why anyone would want to be in charge of the whole country? Or the whole planet? Although Xi has plenty of minions, it still has to be a lot of work to be so evil. B@stard.

It only seems like hard work, because you are looking at it, from the perspective of a non-evil bastard...and good for you.

I don't think tyrannical, psychopaths mentally or emotionally labor over their actions, that they see as paramount, to anything else. Look at Joe brandon, Justin tru-castro or even the the Fauch.

There is no sleep lost at night, there. They know what's best and those who oppose or get in the way, are simply enemies and must be crushed.

I hope these people are filling a room with dry food stuffs, for the next round of lockdowns

Like the food stockpiling we're doing now thanks to Klaus? I'm glad we're not like that. Thank you for the compliment. Brandon & Co. feel no guilt because they have no consciences. He's still bragging about his "81 million" votes. Sure. Right. No way he beat President Trump! Turdeau-Castro and Gain-of-Fauxi "Science" = sociopaths too.
