Guess what, I hear it all the time from the Americans, from their government and their politicians, and their media, and youtubers, common people... Americans are absolutely obsessed with the interference/invasion of foreign forces. Everyone loves that story, especially for a ruling class in crisis. The Democrats have their Russia conspiracy, while the GOP accuses the Dems of collaborating with China. Ordinary people of Chinese and Russian decent became objects of suspicion and inquiry, similar to what the Jew meant to the Germans. Recently, it is reported that the US government raided a Black Liberation organization due to their dissident stance, and the official reason is that the group was collaborating with Russia to "sow divisions within the American Democracy (another word for the power of the State)"... As if divisions aren't already here in the American society! You walk in the streets everyday and see those zombie-like homeless people roaming the streets, all you can think of is getting back to your affluent home as soon as possible. You don't think something isn't right. You don't see REAL divisions and deprivations happening right in front of you in broad daylight. Political persecution can happen in the US, as long as it is justified in the name of state security (or "defense of our precious Democracy"). Anyone who has a different opinion of the affair is immediately denounced as traitors, even though the accusers know very well that the US constitution protects free speech and free association, something that they are so proud of when they use that to justify waging savage wars on much smaller, weaker countries. How cynical!

If you want to see the world tomorrow look at China today because that's where the world is heading. If people continue on with their thoughts and perceptions the way they currently are. If people continue to deny that an evil force exists amongst us controlling us from The unseen then the trajectory will be the same. It's only when we change our perception of life, it's only when we start to understand real truth that will change the trajectory. The world will be destroyed and people will have brought in the destruction to their own Earth. But that possibility does not have to manifest. There's another possibility that human beings awaken to what's really important. There's another possibility that human beings awaken to who they once were. There are many possibilities. How those possibilities manifest into reality is by perceiving, thoughts and perceptions create behavior and from behavior is the manifestation into reality. When we perceive different we behave different. When we behave different the trajectory changes. If we behave the same the trajectory will be the same.

But Chinese vaccines aren't very effective, and the elderly population has avoided taking them.
@@DougOfTheAntarctic I just want to remind you this. You and I are just ordinary people which has no access to some critical data (vaccine protection rate, injection rate, true death rate, economics impacts, long term health damage etc) that only high ranked government officials can see and make decisions based on. (I mean every country here) Therefore, our knowledge about covid is filtered by our government so as to support our governments' decision on how to contain covid. That is why you are totally against what china government is doing. In the last 2 years, China has been one of the best country in containing covid virus. It is undoubted that there must be reasons for Chinese government to try its best to eradicate omicron. (maybe you are right, chinese vaccines might not work or there are some other reasons too and how government value different approaches, but we don't know).

If people are starving anger at rotting veggies that could have been used is not a minor detail. Some of us are very privileged in America to not to know what it is like to starve and not know when you will get food next.
I’m in Shanghai now and though most of the footages above i cant see on our web, i believe they are valid. I‘m a business owner myself and from what i can tell, 40-60% of small businesses will perish if the quarantine last longer than a month from now. We have to continue paying our rent, and salaries/social securities to our employees. 1) Government mandates firms like us to pay at least minimal salaries to our staffs(¥2590+ss¥1628). Laying off staffs is the last option if the company quenches its cashflow. 2) Government indeed gives order to SOC to exempt firms rent for 6 months but in reality, SOCs are using private companies to sign contracts with us tenants.
This experience will motivate more Chinese to migrate to other countries. Lockdowns motivated people in Western countries to move out of apartments and into homes. And from cities to regional locations.
Sadly China is trying to prevent people from leaving. I heard some people have gotten their passports cut up at the airport. Many have indeed left though, mostly wealthy people. The CCP probably isn't very happy that all that capital is trying to leave in hordes.
You act like it’s that easy. Any Westerner in most nations can just up and leave but most Chinese cant afford it and the visa process is extremely corrupted and takes years to get processed.

Also, why are “emergency food supplies” made out of fresh vegetables that tend to rot quickly? What you need in this kind of situation is to distribute MREs, cans, dried food or anything else with high nutrition content, small size and long shelf life.
Why do you believe what little you see? They are fed fake food made literally with cardboard. Its not about feeding them, its about how little they have to spend to not fall into inhumane treatement. "Fresh vegetables" , you poor naive mind 👀
What people should also do all over the world, well those who wants to... is grow food forests, fruit trees everywhere. food rather than lawns, green the deserts (look up Geoff Lawtons work) self sustaining housing (Reynolds) self sustaining cities K(like china has started in some places) etc..
From my understanding, their diet is made by fresh foods. They don't normally eat frozen foods, so because of this the average person will go to the grocery stores every 2 to 3 days.
I’m a college student in China and I’ve been locked in my dorm for 2 months now. My school performed pretty well, the distributed meals are free and I participated as a volunteer as well.But I think the main problem is about control of information. Basically we can only get informed through platform like WeChat, no official reports anywhere and in my school, the positive student cannot be reported officially because the government doesn’t allow to do so. So my school just get those infected ones to quarantine and they just live upstairs of me, so I knew about these details. I mean it’s just so upset to come through this.
From what I can tell from other people in China the problem is people are getting the virus and are continuously testing positive. Meaning a new strain and maybe a new evolved disease. That is all the info I have sorry.
Suicide rates high, depression high, mental health problems high, domestic violence high, increase in social disorder.... but at least COVID numbers are low... sounds logical to me! :)
Maybe if they would actually allow the people of Shanghai to eat healthily and socialize there would be little to no cases at all. When you get depressed, it’s more likely you will get sick. No socializing, no sharing important germs to create immunity. Honestly, how dumb could some people be? I feel like this isn’t about the Covid cases but about control.
While here in Stockholm, Sweden we have never been in full lock down since this started in 2019, restrictions yes. But not lockdown. Now it's summer here, all restrictions have been lifted.
your videos are a part of the full-movies. I had already watched the full video of the first one. Those two women had got Covid-19, the local community had told them to go to degnisigned place to quarantine.Then the women rejected to go there, At last The police came , the policemen Knocked the door ,but they did not open it. So the police had to break down to force them to quarantine in order to their innocent neighbours.
Thanks for sharing about the situation here in Shanghai. It’s incredibly tough for most of us but we are keeping a positive attitude and hope things will be “normal” soon.
Summon a mass prayer ritual. I'd love to switch places with you. Quarantines, restrictions, and isolation mean nothing to me after I had an epiphany that I didn't even survive the first round. And a corpse can't really die twice so I don't mind being a hostage.
Shanghai is occupied territory. Go back long enough before the CCP and you will find it was it's own country with it's own leadership. After they were conquered the people of Wu were denied the right to self govern. Like a child whose inheritance has been stolen the CCP are now the current occupiers of Shanghai and have every right to tell them enough is enough.
forgot? tienanmen square was china actively suppressing the democracy that came with economic integration...this is just a result of an authoritarian state
China did not forget democracy but China did prioritize economic developments. Shanghai relaxed the restrictions too quickly, which allowed the local outbreak, which forced the government to impose wide lockdowns with chaotic management. Luckily the outbreak has dwindled now and Shanghai is expected to reopen in June.
true, US remembered democracy in favor of economic development... freedom to protests, freedom to shoot anyone you like,freedom to die... yes we are paying the price to have outbreak controlled and death toll minimized, we are paying the price to have life back not normal gradually
Why there isn't any poll about the normal Chinese people opinions about the policies? Only cheery picking several 'convincing' cases won't really convince that much. I want to know the statistics, not what the media pushed to me.
I love how they characterize this as frustrations among the Chinese people. It’s absolute tyranny and evil filmed for all to see and our corporate media in America apologizes for it.
If the CCP walks back on the zero policy the people will question the communist gov. actions. It may be quite some time for this to end there. Hence why they are telling everyone its coming in from foreign sources, food, or other excuses.
i'm a student in shanghai ,this is the very first time i feel UPSET and DISAPPOINTTED for chinese government ,endless lockdown,terrible management .....i cannot understand this kind of solution to virus, this is not the case happens in 2020,we have to consider it seriously
As a Chinese citizen living in the US, I wanted to say that the images and footages are authentic and true, and that I am furious and disappointed in the government. And I genuinely hope that the atrocities of the CCP will backfire on itself sometime. However, it is equally important for one to also realize that these images and footages are carefully selected by western media to deliberately show the worst of the worst, and they will never show you the other side of the story, which I believe is equally important as a media to not conceal. This is especially true for WSJ after my years of subscription experience with them. While they boast press freedom, and rightfully so, their contents and reports are in fact deliberately chosen to influence the public opinions.
So what? It’s being done all over the world. At least it’s better than having a fully government controlled state media that blatantly lies. Like what I’m having here. There are no other sources to flock to. With you Americans, you have diversified sources of information to formulate your opinion. That is your luxury. Enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing! I agree with what you have said. I am living in Shanghai and whilst the situation is pretty bad here I don’t know anyone who has personally seen most of these things and it isn’t as common as the media makes it out to be. That is not to say it is at all acceptable but it’s a very fine line when people are making opinions when they aren’t in Shanghai
making an authoritarian state the global supply chain hub is never a good idea. this is a key issue with globalism. where cheap labor is, there's almost certainly bad governance
Yes, even after all of this, Chinese people don’t know what’s going on. The hatred towards foreigners doesn’t change. It’s all because they’re closed off from the world. Sigh
The most surprising thing about China is the silence and acquiescence of the Chinese people for more than 70 years of Communist rule. Of course baring the protest in 1989. But most times nearly 1.3 billion people have accepted this way of life as normal. I think the answer must be in the fact that the CCP has given them development and wealth so it compensates for handing over their freedom.
but its not 1.3 billion people living this way is it? its just shanghai. Everywhere else in china is fine with the 15 day quarantine of individuals instead of locking down the entire province.
@@orangerightgold7512 Yes, that's true. But my point was that despite living under an authoritarian government for nearly 70 years, most people in China seem to be happy with that. They're ok to compromise their freedom for development.
@@reach2prasanna well what choice do they have? they suffered a century of humiliation, got taken over by japan then forced to give up part of its country to different western powers and was exploited to no end. so it was either give up a bit of freedom for development or stay exploited.
@@orangerightgold7512 Yes that makes sense. But I'd like to draw parallels with India. We in India have also had to endue centuries of foreign invasion, destruction, subjugation but we choose to live under a democracy, where people still hold power. but because of that maybe we'd the give up on developing fast, at least as fast as China did.
The World Health Organization telling China it should rethink it's strategy, is just lame. The WHO should rethink all of it's strategies and how they tell other Countries on how to deal with Covid. It is not working.
Having spent time in China it's still hard for me to figure out what the reason or strategy is behind this, and despite all the political and cultural oddities of China Chinese people and the government may be horribly corrupt but they were not stupid. What I observed of the CCP and PLA, where it mattered they could be astonishingly intelligent, forward-thinking, practical and resourceful. In some ways more than than Americans or even the Japanese, and very often frighteningly so. I'm inclined to believe there's a hidden reason for what appears to be madness, and it's not good.

I’m in Shanghai now and though most of the footages above i cant see on our web, i believe they are valid. I‘m a business owner myself and from what i can tell, 40-60% of small businesses will perish if the quarantine last longer than a month from now. We have to continue paying our rent, and salaries/social securities to our employees. 1) Government mandates firms like us to pay at least minimal salaries to our staffs(¥2590+ss¥1628). Laying off staffs is the last option if the company quenches its cashflow. 2) Government indeed gives order to SOC to exempt firms rent for 6 months but in reality, SOCs are using private companies to sign contracts with us tenants.

This experience will motivate more Chinese to migrate to other countries. Lockdowns motivated people in Western countries to move out of apartments and into homes. And from cities to regional locations.
Sadly China is trying to prevent people from leaving. I heard some people have gotten their passports cut up at the airport. Many have indeed left though, mostly wealthy people. The CCP probably isn't very happy that all that capital is trying to leave in hordes.
China isn't renovating most passports at the moment...
You act like it’s that easy. Any Westerner in most nations can just up and leave but most Chinese cant afford it and the visa process is extremely corrupted and takes years to get processed.
Moving to uk is alright but if they move to the us they won’t be safe. They’ll literally get racially attacked or killed for being asian

Also, why are “emergency food supplies” made out of fresh vegetables that tend to rot quickly? What you need in this kind of situation is to distribute MREs, cans, dried food or anything else with high nutrition content, small size and long shelf life.
Why do you believe what little you see? They are fed fake food made literally with cardboard. Its not about feeding them, its about how little they have to spend to not fall into inhumane treatement.
"Fresh vegetables" , you poor naive mind 👀
What people should also do all over the world, well those who wants to... is grow food forests, fruit trees everywhere.
food rather than lawns, green the deserts (look up Geoff Lawtons work) self sustaining housing (Reynolds) self sustaining cities K(like china has started in some places) etc..

I’m a college student in China and I’ve been locked in my dorm for 2 months now. My school performed pretty well, the distributed meals are free and I participated as a volunteer as well.But I think the main problem is about control of information. Basically we can only get informed through platform like WeChat, no official reports anywhere and in my school, the positive student cannot be reported officially because the government doesn’t allow to do so. So my school just get those infected ones to quarantine and they just live upstairs of me, so I knew about these details. I mean it’s just so upset to come through this.

From what I can tell from other people in China the problem is people are getting the virus and are continuously testing positive. Meaning a new strain and maybe a new evolved disease. That is all the info I have sorry.

Maybe if they would actually allow the people of Shanghai to eat healthily and socialize there would be little to no cases at all. When you get depressed, it’s more likely you will get sick. No socializing, no sharing important germs to create immunity. Honestly, how dumb could some people be?

While here in Stockholm, Sweden we have never been in full lock down since this started in 2019, restrictions yes. But not lockdown. Now it's summer here, all restrictions have been lifted.

And from what I understand, the Swedes opened up their schools earlier than anybody mask free.

your videos are a part of the full-movies. I had already watched the full video of the first one. Those two women had got Covid-19, the local community had told them to go to degnisigned place to quarantine.Then the women rejected to go there, At last The police came , the policemen Knocked the door ,but they did not open it. So the police had to break down to force them to quarantine in order to their innocent neighbours.
Good for that lady who filmed the police breaking her door ! And good for her for not complying.

Thanks for sharing about the situation here in Shanghai. It’s incredibly tough for most of us but we are keeping a positive attitude and hope things will be “normal” soon.
Nothing is normal under a communist regime.
Summon a mass prayer ritual. I'd love to switch places with you. Quarantines, restrictions, and isolation mean nothing to me after I had an epiphany that I didn't even survive the first round. And a corpse can't really die twice so I don't mind being a hostage.
Hey Expat Nat...sometimes hope is not enough. You all must somehow organize in order to put the control back into your hands.
Why the rush to get people out of their apartment to be around other people?
It's like Australia and Canada had a kid.
Shanghai is occupied territory. Go back long enough before the CCP and you will find it was it's own country with it's own leadership. After they were conquered the people of Wu were denied the right to self govern. Like a child whose inheritance has been stolen the CCP are now the current occupiers of Shanghai and have every right to tell them enough is enough.

Lack of democracy.
Chinese forgot democracy in favor of economic development. Now, they are paying the price.
forgot? tienanmen square was china actively suppressing the democracy that came with economic integration...this is just a result of an authoritarian state
China did not forget democracy but China did prioritize economic developments. Shanghai relaxed the restrictions too quickly, which allowed the local outbreak, which forced the government to impose wide lockdowns with chaotic management. Luckily the outbreak has dwindled now and Shanghai is expected to reopen in June.
true, US remembered democracy in favor of economic development... freedom to protests, freedom to shoot anyone you like,freedom to die... yes we are paying the price to have outbreak controlled and death toll minimized, we are paying the price to have life back not normal gradually
I feel bad for those that are being abused by bad people in Shanghai
Why there isn't any poll about the normal Chinese people opinions about the policies? Only cheery picking several 'convincing' cases won't really convince that much.
I want to know the statistics, not what the media pushed to me.
Unfortunately I shouldn't have told my Chinese friends the best response to annoying questions: God Sod Urself 🤣🤣😂😂😇😇
I love how they characterize this as frustrations among the Chinese people. It’s absolute tyranny and evil filmed for all to see and our corporate media in America apologizes for it.
They treat people like animals
this is madness
This is China - and this is normal.
Never forgive. Never forget
The lockdown will end - and probably soon. The question is if the protests and frustration will continue, by finding other grievances.
No it will not. Xi’s reelection for President for life is in 6 months. He will lock down the nation for 6 more months at least.
Hopefully
I think china is a testfield how far you can go with controlling people...
It will end but the people won't forget
If the CCP walks back on the zero policy the people will question the communist gov. actions. It may be quite some time for this to end there. Hence why they are telling everyone its coming in from foreign sources, food, or other excuses.

i'm a student in shanghai ,this is the very first time i feel UPSET and DISAPPOINTTED for chinese government ,endless lockdown,terrible management .....i cannot understand this kind of solution to virus, this is not the case happens in 2020,we have to consider it seriously
As a Chinese citizen living in the US, I wanted to say that the images and footages are authentic and true, and that I am furious and disappointed in the government. And I genuinely hope that the atrocities of the CCP will backfire on itself sometime. However, it is equally important for one to also realize that these images and footages are carefully selected by western media to deliberately show the worst of the worst, and they will never show you the other side of the story, which I believe is equally important as a media to not conceal. This is especially true for WSJ after my years of subscription experience with them. While they boast press freedom, and rightfully so, their contents and reports are in fact deliberately chosen to influence the public opinions.
So what? It’s being done all over the world. At least it’s better than having a fully government controlled state media that blatantly lies. Like what I’m having here. There are no other sources to flock to. With you Americans, you have diversified sources of information to formulate your opinion. That is your luxury. Enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing! I agree with what you have said. I am living in Shanghai and whilst the situation is pretty bad here I don’t know anyone who has personally seen most of these things and it isn’t as common as the media makes it out to be. That is not to say it is at all acceptable but it’s a very fine line when people are making opinions when they aren’t in Shanghai
A guy wearing pyjamas on the street, you know you're in Shanghai!
making an authoritarian state the global supply chain hub is never a good idea. this is a key issue with globalism. where cheap labor is, there's almost certainly bad governance

The most surprising thing about China is the silence and acquiescence of the Chinese people for more than 70 years of Communist rule. Of course baring the protest in 1989. But most times nearly 1.3 billion people have accepted this way of life as normal. I think the answer must be in the fact that the CCP has given them development and wealth so it compensates for handing over their freedom.
but its not 1.3 billion people living this way is it? its just shanghai. Everywhere else in china is fine with the 15 day quarantine of individuals instead of locking down the entire province.
@@orangerightgold7512 Yes, that's true. But my point was that despite living under an authoritarian government for nearly 70 years, most people in China seem to be happy with that. They're ok to compromise their freedom for development.
@@reach2prasanna well what choice do they have? they suffered a century of humiliation, got taken over by japan then forced to give up part of its country to different western powers and was exploited to no end. so it was either give up a bit of freedom for development or stay exploited.
@@orangerightgold7512 Yes that makes sense. But I'd like to draw parallels with India. We in India have also had to endue centuries of foreign invasion, destruction, subjugation but we choose to live under a democracy, where people still hold power. but because of that maybe we'd the give up on developing fast, at least as fast as China did.

The World Health Organization telling China it should rethink it's strategy, is just lame. The WHO should rethink all of it's strategies and how they tell other Countries on how to deal with Covid. It is not working.
Having spent time in China it's still hard for me to figure out what the reason or strategy is behind this, and despite all the political and cultural oddities of China Chinese people and the government may be horribly corrupt but they were not stupid. What I observed of the CCP and PLA, where it mattered they could be astonishingly intelligent, forward-thinking, practical and resourceful. In some ways more than than Americans or even the Japanese, and very often frighteningly so. I'm inclined to believe there's a hidden reason for what appears to be madness, and it's not good.
It's about face, Xi Jinping's face. If you know Chinese you know face is the most important thing for them.
