“Offering” implies the Chinese have a choice LOL

Let's take a Poll? How hard will NBC kiss China's ass during the games?

Those coming to China for the Winter Olympics should stay in a hotel for 14 days before the start of the games! Don’t want those fuck head start another pandemic in China l!

Good to know. Hope it works, to local people, to all.

Booster injections have been carried out across China. Of course you can interpret it as: to prevent the spread of COVID-19 from some big country to China🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

I'm opting out of the Winter Olympics. I support the athletes. = Democracy needs to evolve to be about caring for all
