Strictness for the greater good continues to enjoy unmistakable public support in China. Why?

With officials facing punishment for cases on their watch, grassroots harshness abounds. The northern city of Heihe has declared a “people’s war”, with rewards of up to 100,000 yuan for residents who report such pandemic crimes as illegal hunting. A county in Inner Mongolia locked nearly 10,000 tourists in hotels for two weeks to smother an outbreak.

A focus on the interests of the majority resonates with many Chinese. They remember images of chaos in Wuhan last year, as the virus overwhelmed hospitals in that city of 10m. They know that the health system is weaker outside big urban centres. Many doctors in rural clinics lack university degrees. Intensive-care beds are rare. American-style pandemic policies could have led to millions of deaths.

lol why do people like not living in a plague country

Why indeed?

I miss several of the dead.

People living in China have had a hell of a lot more restriction-free days than people living in West who actually give a shit about infecting themselves, their families, or others.

China continues not to jump off bridge even though the U.S. did.

Why aren't Chinese people psychopaths embracing the death impulse?

they don't have any Applebees to get back to in China

Laissez-faire for the greater evil continues to enjoy unmistakable private support in the pages of The Economist. Why?

'Chinese citizens can do pretty much whatever, whenever, without risking Long Covid. Why is this popular?'

BECAUSE THAT'S HOW YOU STOP A PLAGUE!!!!!

Because people there aren’t ending up in hospitals and dying? Why is this hard to understand?

History.

horrible

EXCLUSIVE Chinese embassy lobbies U.S. business to oppose China bills -sourcesChina has been pushing U.S. executives, companies and business groups in recent weeks to fight against China-related bills in the U.S. Congress, four sources familiar with the initiative told Reuters, in letters to and meetings with a wide range of actors in the business community. Why is it so exclusive ? Israel has literally bought the whole US congress so what if other countries are trying to do the same especially when FEC is allowing buying politicians with foreign money. there is no difference that US company do something by office corruption in China. How quaint. The FEC recently approved unlimited foreign donations to initiative and referendum campaigns. Chinese oligarchs can make direct donations. Play the long game, control the initiative and referendum process through donations. Pay to play, that's the American way.
