This may seem off topic, but bear with me. I spent two and a half years in West Germany from ’85 to ’88. I was there, at the behest of the US Army as an insurance policy to protect Europe from a Russian invasion. All of US who served there were pawns in a huge game of chess. I went and saw the East German border with some border guards. There was a regular type of fence off the border road that was the beginning of no man’s land. 50 yards from that was a huge fence that was thirty feet high, and the razor wire on top was pointed inwards, not out towards US. The fence was designed to keep people in. Think this is bad? Just wait. I was shown a town off in the half mile distance. Picturesque, just like you would think of European countryside. In that town several fires were burning in chimneys. The border guards then told me that there was another huge fence one mile on the other side of that town. East Germans would climb and cross that fence, and find the town. They would go to the town, thinking the were in West Germany. The town was full of East German soldiers, who would capture them and take them away, never to be seen or heard from again. That is when I truly understood what Communism was all about. The people of China are in deep trouble. The people of the world are in deep trouble. Most refuse to see it. Their brains can’t handle it. Communism, Socialism, Marxism, Fascism, whatever you want to call it, is EVIL.

Here’s something no preacher has ever been able to explain to me. We are a unique country started as by and for the people/citizens. We have no ordained/anointed/birthright Head of State like, for instance, Caesar or a king.

Therefore, why would we “render to the servants” in DC anything but their just deserts? They are not our kings/Caesar. They are our elected servants. We are our own kings and Caesars.

Therefore, do we actually owe anything to that bunch of thieving servants on the Potomac?

The important part of this story is that we here in the United States have given up producing the necessary items underlying our lives to. . .the Chinese Communists. The same monsters putting these 25 million souls in prison. Thanks to the Demoncrats and RINOs of the Uniparty we have been placed in a position of hoping that the Chinese will keep selling us the precursor chemicals for our pharmaceuticals; rare earth minerals for the production of the communication hardware upon which our entire lives operate; that they won’t kill our GPS and Communication satellites fundamental to our military our businesses and ourselves.
Hoping. These monsters are in charge in China, and their toadies are in charge here on the USA.
Meanwhile we are worried about pronouns, “equity”, self-esteem, and free of “mean tweets” from the One Man who tried to wake us up and to stand up against the Globalist Communist monsters without and within, Donald Trump. And the stole OUR election and we do nothing.
We are locked in those goddamm towers by extension.

unconfirmed non-collaborated source reporting:

while the official CCP news is reporting this latest outbreak, which has already reached spreading rates greater than any seen since the beginning of the pandemic in 2019, as simply the Omicron BA.2 variant, the ccp has refused to report the actual hospitilizations, severity and deaths related to this outbreak.

Now there are two possibly three concerning elements to this unconfirmed source reporting:

A. this lack of transparency is somewhat consistent with previous black hole media censorship and is just being amplified and enforced even more in order to prevent a public relations and thus real economic meltdown in beijing markets (global markets).

B. There may be in fact an entirely different variant at play that is far more serious than BA.2 and ccp does not want to allow the reporting of it and create a nation wide and potentially global hysteria. (unfortunately, if that is the case and this is a very serious and new variant, these actions will do nothing to prevent it from spreading, as this lockdown actually began 19 days ago and international travel HAS happened. That the rest of the world has not yet seen it in surveillance is not surprising for the same reasons that the initial alpha sars virus took at least that amount of time to resolve it and detect it. While there are many different variants circulating worldwide, it is practically, logistically very difficult to detect new variants unless they have short incubation periods and a high rate of harm and death. We have not seen this reported yet ..and CCP is not discussing these matters…

C. The lockdown is related to a failing CCP economy and extremely high inflation. In order for the CCP party to avert collapse and potential coup or upset to the larger state interests to maintain order, it would be “helpful” to create lockdowns and push a narrative that the VIRUS is responsible for the short supply of food and resources. The reality is that China broadly has been experiencing a massive shortfall of food and resources that happened very abruptly about 2 months ago. So this may simply be a means to control the population, create a narrative that the state can blame the virus (again), and somehow avert a far more serious problem: a loss of power by the current political figures (they are all INSTALLED working on behalf of a very massive number of very very wealthy and powerful private elite (many international concerns as well). In this element, the lockdown has nothing to do with any greater harm of sars virus, but simply a reasoned manufactured action against a very real threat of loss of confidence …CCP will take the path of actually starving their own people in order to display power which is apparently necessary to show strength to the ccp oligarths (and globalists). It’s counter-intuitive from a western POV, but once understanding how power is assembled and insulated, this is precisely how CCP political figures operate. Up armoring a police state power is representative of a good solid positive political power to the very wealthy elite. It’s disgusting, but one has to understand that CCP has no concerns of labor camps, genocide of entire ethnic groups, and they have proven to have done these things in the name sake of good order and show of state power.

My confidence level on these source point reports:

it’s unlikely to be a new variant that has more harm….the food shortage and actual riots started in Feb….The lockdowns are likely not even related to virus or cases, but a state power exercise in reaction to and prep for more of the same riots that unless policed with heavy draconian force and left unchecked, there would be violence at a critical level that even the state could not be capable of controlling. This is getting ahead of those riots. I am told the police are enforcing these lockdowns with military rules of engagement with local commanders given the authority to exercise lethal force.

the chinese oligarths cannot allow the political body appear to be weak. They will direct the political body to take deadly police actions against their own people.

Many do not understand CCP/China. We in the west have a very shallow and mostly understated idea of the police state that exists in china and why they undervalue lives.

it’s about fear and terror.

These lockdowns are unlikely due to any variant..I agree with you.

What the political body fears most is civil unrest and violence from the people. This actually first started about 2 months ago. Real riots..real violence.

What we are seeing is just the first stage of a larger calculated police order to lockdown people to avert a widespread china wide riot and violence.

the irony of this action is not lost on me.

ultimately these people are starving..and if not working will have to rely in the state to carry them over. I can assure you that the CCP economy is near free fall and there will not be enough trampolines to keep them from hitting the ground.

spoiler: this will not be the first time that a very large number of people have starved to death in china.

Since Shanghai is the financial center of the country…could they be looking to steal the wealth of these people? Is there any wealth there? Yes, I agree with the idea of civil unrest — and this could just be a way to show them who is boss, but if the economy of Shanghai collapses, what then?

So why lock them up to starve them to death, let the Rona do the job. I don’t get it. You are killing people to stop them from killing people?

First of all, I have heard nothing about WhICH strain this is. Is it a new one? Doubt it.

Why would omicron cause the shut down.

It was on this blog, I believe, that I read that the Chinese believe a pestilence is the sign of the supernatural force angry with the rulers so that they rulers must be removed.

Anyone know if this is indeed a Chinese belief? If so, it would explain the Xi’s efforts to prevent the spread, even killing off a good number of people living in Shanghai.

precisely….the reason why people (and not just chinese people btw) have become compliant is because they have witnessed the power of the state to ruin them entirely if they do not comply. (exhibit in order: china, australia, canada, US)

the chinese people do not own weapons, they do not organize, because there is great penalty in even discussing it. There are no true LIVING dissidents in china. They are either dead or “disappeared”.

While “we” in the west have a corrupt main stream press, it is nothing like what the people in china have. It’s a completely state run media arm that regularly, on the hour, reminds people in a non subtle way, that non compliance will be met with serious consequences. And the people know this is not a bluff. The state does not bluff in china. There is no debate, no attorneys you may call if you dare to step over the line, or fail to comply or even make a mistake. It’s about as textbook of a war time nazi regime in terms of police state as you can get. And this was true even before the pandemic. The people are “cultured” over many generations to comply. And sadly this also causes a very strange and twisted society that is more prone to report on one another for violations. Even within families!

In china, when we say you have no rights, is an understatement.

The people have been consumed with pandemic terror tactics and the day to day fear factor that has been made very real to them.

I have little confidence any of this will change.

I was somewhat surprised 2 months ago when I noticed very large riots in 17 cities all happening around the same time. It was not coordination..nor coincidence. These riots happened at the same time when massive shortfalls of food and resources hit at or about the same time and impacted china broadly, specifically critical in those large cities.

My prediction is the lockdowns are going to domino into many other cities in the very short timeline.

I don’t know how CCP will manage to maintain production milestones, but also aware that the economy is a tipping point and could fall over the edge very soon. Perhaps the CCP is just getting ahead of this, knowing the great chinese depression is about to happen. Pretty difficult to manage once that sets in.

(looking through the perspective of CCP )

Until last November, I taught online English to school-age Chinese children (ages 5-16). Then the Chinese government banned teachers living outside of mainland China from teaching those on the mainland. The Chinese government claimed their students were spending too much time learning English. In my opinion, they didn’t want any Western influence challenging the panic-porn narrative being sold to the world.

Here’s iPhone footage , I get that we went from watching video in January 2020 of the CCP welding Chinese into their apartment buildings to USA lockdowns 2 months later, but denying this is not real happening now seems off.

China is about 8 months ahead of USA = jabbed. The people have compromised immune systems. Seems a clear path to do whatever to whomever. Not crazy. We are watching a slow drama theatre when you splash water on your face to assure you’re not dreaming – you’re not. Focus. Get information from multiple sources – yes video can be doctored, but here we have multiple takes from obvious China – actors? Explain to me how that would work? No. China is locked down and people are enslaved to the CCP, jabbed, and confused. Seems obvious and out of control. Or not …
