Starting to look like that "5 more years of zero covid" tweet is exactly what's being planned. Hopefully it will cause their fall.

Fuck off back to China cunts
People truly get the governments they deserve
Sadly the propaganda and brainwashing campaign perfected by the CCP has succeeded to instil fear in Chinese citizens who blindly follow the CCP controlled social media, news agencies etc.
Even in Portugal we sometimes speak with Chinese friends who believe that Xi did a fantastic job eradicating Covid.
I understand the current CCP storyline to defend their policy to stick with zero covid has shifted from the fear of catching Covid (as evidently it is becoming clear that catching Covid is like a minor flu) to highlighting stories on how people outside China all suffer from long Covid and that catching Covid will basically be a ticking time bomb later in life.
Meanwhile I am sure high ranking CCP members are all frantically scrambling to try to move their proceeds (corruption) from endorsing Covid tests, masks, hazmat suites, quarantine facilities etcetc outside China. I see a flurry of activities in the last year or so of firms being registered in the UK (and other places) with dodgy shareholders, all in preparation to start moving more funds out.
While there is no doubt that China's policy is way over the top and that many country are showing that it is manageable to live somewhat normally in a COVID world, it is very likely untrue that COVID is like catching a minor flu and it was certainly different in my case, I have felt worse catching other bugs but it wasn't like a minor flu. There is a more reasonable position that is somewhere in between the "it's just like a minor flu" and "we're all going to die" alarmists. With COVID, it points to a higher death rate, higher hospitalization rates, higher possibility of long term complications, higher transmissibility which mean having to be more careful about spreading it and also often different symptoms. In my opinion, it is neither helpful to trivialize it or demonize it.

To them lots of deaths over a long period of time that can be explained away > short, dramatic event which actually causes less deaths. It's all about optics. And i know of very few countries, besides notably north korea, who almost rely exclusively on optics to stay in power
I think it is pretty clear that they want to get rid of the expats who provide a contrarian view which could influence other Chinese people. We didn't get through a brainwashing education system so we are a danger to society.
