It seems that China has learned the Japanese art of hari-kari. They're gonna totally trash their economy over this insane policy. Massive social unrest and upheaval incoming. And don't think they'll be able to quash omicron by doing this - it's just too contagious. They beat it down in one city due to brutal lockdown, and then it'll pop up elsewhere and around and round the wheel goes.
I've got my Large Coke and XL popcorn ready to go for this spectacular picture show - it's not every day that we get to see a mighty nation go bye-bye in real time.
Fun times...fun times.
Fun, except for the fact that China makes the lion's share of the products that we obese Westerners consume in voracious fashion. The Chinese are used to living under a violently oppressive regime. If the shelves ever go bare in the West — and particularly, here in the US — we'd be fortunate to last a matter of weeks before people began to fundamentally lose their ****. That's why I hope we never see some sort of event that takes out the power grid; this country would resemble The Walking Dead in under two months.
Everyone is going to get Covid eventually. According to the data China supplied WHO over the last 2+ years China has only had 114 cases per million people to date, as opposed to the world average of 64,015 per million people. Their turn.
Not if they all starve to death locked down in their high rises. And there is one avid BLM supporter (extreme leftist who happens to be White) on the California forum who insisted that Americans are selfish and if we locked down like China and arrested people for going outside without masks, we would have eliminated Covid like they did. He thought the BLM protests should be exempt from the no gathering rules though. Now he’s silent on what’s going on in China but still insists on masks for all and makes his kids wear N95s to school.
The Chinese are used to this type of strict social order. It does work in keeping their cases low. Though I’m skeptical about the official numbers they release. Hopefully it won’t interfere too much with international trade.

See how long it takes a city to fall apart to total chaos and violence if they get cut off and can't get food. The Great Reset testing stage has begun.

That poster is a CCP agent. Or if he isn't, he should be treated like one. It's long past time to grab these people by the scruff of their neck and shove their face in the pile of s*** they've created.

At this point, I think it'd be for the best for the shelves to go bare. It's high time that America regains its former position of the manufacturing capital of the world. Whatever China makes for us now, we can make in the future.
In the meantime, we can get by on neighbor swaps, flea markets and thrift stores - we've got enough "stuff" just lying around to last a decade or more - plenty of time for us to get those factories built and humming.
Only going to get worse for us here. My wife works in the supply chain industry. She deals with Shanghai every morning at 5 am when she gets up. Cargo is piling up? Bad news for us. Only good news is American's will blame Biden and the Democrats. Bloodbath in November coming!!!!
The POTUS always takes the blame... ask Trump!
As for the blood bath, my only response is they earned it!
