A Crack in the Great Covid Wall of China

We can now see that the fight against Covid lockdowns is global. The official liberal narrative—that opposition to lockdowns was just “Ron Death Santis” and cranky ultra-conservatives in red states—has long since been shot to hell.

For freedom-loving Americans, it’s heartening to know that people all over the world want to breathe free and to be free. And it’s even more heartening to know that protests can work. December 1 headline from Reuters tells of modest success in one of the most controlled countries in the world: “China set to loosen COVID curbs after week of historic protests.” As the article detailed, “The measures due to be unveiled include a reduction in the use of mass testing… as well as moves to allow positive cases and close contacts to isolate at home under certain conditions.” That is, as opposed to being penned up in a “closed loop” factory or being hied off to a medical-prison camp. On December 5, Chinese official media announced the change, and informal social media provides plenty more evidence. As the BBC observed on December 5, the Beijing regime was “never going to apologize,” but has nonetheless found a “face-saving” way out of its losing battle with human nature.

China is using COVID policy to stave off a civil war. Seems the Chinese people don’t want to be dragged back into Maoist communism by Winnie the Pooh!

China has the original owners manual. They know more about the virus than anyone else.

And they apparently care more about their old folks than they do about money.

Unlike elsewhere.

They are a 1+ billion array of petri dishes for mutation generation — and before you leap to declare this is good, because mutations are more mild than the previous strain — lean back and figure out why Delta was more deadly than Alpha.

Oh, and btw, here’s Japan. Right now:

The Left has a mental illness and today it’s “transgenderism”. That’s what the pronoun thingy has now become the most important issue for them. Mental illness is now being promoted as normal behavior. Conditioning and grooming of children for sex is now the Biden administrations priority. Children must be ready for sexual perversions at the youngest age possible. Makes one wonder if the Biden administration is really the NAMBA administration. Anyone?
