The Communist Party likes to claim that it is responsive to the public mood. But it does not like politically charged protests

Save time by listening to our audio articles as you multitaskSoon after the demonstrations, China’s government ditched most of its covid controls. A recent article by Xinhua, a state news agency, did not mention the protests, but it noted that public “fatigue, anxiety, and tension” had been rising and that this had helped change policymakers’ minds. The party likes to claim that it is responsive to the public mood.

Most were released within a day. But at least eight people who attended the protests in Beijing have been detained since mid-December, according to their friends. Most of them are women in their 20s with white-collar jobs. Reports suggest that several other people have been detained as well. In a post on Weibo, a social-media platform, a lawyer for one of the detainees claimed the police were making it hard for him to meet his client.

The ideologized double standards. Did the Economist put the same mournful spin on the crackdown on Capitol Riot as today? Of course those Americans weren't warriors although they found themselves groaning under the Democrats-defined democracy and started fighting for their own.🥱

Seems reasonable with a population of 21.5 million fkin people...

Europe is still punishing those who protested against covid restrictions

How they ride

All the lies from the West.Bullshit

Perhaps with good reason. Those who protested the restrictions have been proven completely wrong.

lol

misinformation

It is just ridiculous for you to wrongfully use this photo, which shows the policemen try to manage the massive crowd in new year celebration in Shanghai heading for the celebration.

It happens almost at every start of new year, the media here in China have all expressed their appreciation for their hard work, so don't try to make it like the police are suppressing us again, somethkng you are so good at.

hey again you are distortng people with the picture you don't even know what it is all about. It's the first day of 2023, and people are stroming out to celebrate on the Eastern Road of Nanjing Street in Shanghai. Those police are maintaining orders and protecting people.

AmbQinGang AmbLiuXiaoMing CCP 🇨🇳🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Well they're the ones that wanted it lifted & causing people to get sick & d1e from it. They had America's backing.

But UK government is neither responsive to public mood nor willing to allow the general public to give vent to their feelings on sensitive issues.🥱 Think about how they took everybody down with them into this fiscal rabbit hole.

You as western are so funny, when china was making hard lockdown to save people you didn't like it and encourage the protests than when china decide to down the lockdown you make a lockdown on Chinese people on airport cause you afraid of COVID!!!

Communism has killed 100Million people its more evil than the Nazi's Its bad time to teach that again.

In Brazil too. It must be the new normal...
