People in Shanghai Now Start to Resist
Life in China’s Draconian Lockdown Part 8: The Resistance
Anybody can see what’s happening in Shanghai China are human rights abuses. The forced imprisonment inside your home for more than a month. Shutting down food vendors so that you can’t eat. Sending people off to concentrations camps if you test positive. And now a new one; kicking you out your home that you paid for, to set up quarantine centers. That’s right you heard me. It gets worse. The Chinese government is now using primary schools as quarantine centers. I mean this wouldn’t be so bad if the country wasn’t insisting on a futile zero Covid policy.
The rich elite that have paid millions of dollars for an apartment next to schools now find out it’s meaningless to pay 5 million dollars for a home. You own nothing, and you will be happy. The government just punk’d you for your property.
Some people have been locked down for more than a month and a half with children. Leadership has clearly not gotten the message that the people are fed up with the incompetence and the glaring obviousness that this is all political prick swinging. It is said that the main reason why there are these strict controls is that dictator Xi wants a third term in office; which according to the Chinese “Constitution”, chairmen are only allowed two terms. Well, thats not all accurate. Since 2018 there was a vote to extend term limits. Out of 2,964 votes only two voted to relieve Xi of power. I mean they had to dress it up to make it look legitimate.

The fact that the Chinese government can seize your home on a whim should let you know what they think about the peasantry.
To look at today’s Covid numbers an end is nowhere in sight. I wonder how China will declare this as a victory…
Meanwhile the government continues to play these stupid mind games with the public by refusing to tell the truth to the public. Anything they don’t like gets deleted…
Too bad Trevor Noah found what is happening in Shanghai so funny. I thought he would know better than to make fun of such horrific human rights violations being he is from South Africa. But who am I, the lowly peon to judge?
Till next time kiddies…
