Residents in #Shanghai screaming from high rise apartments after 7 straight days of the city lockdown. The narrator worries that there will be major problems. (in Shanghainese dialect—he predicts people can’t hold out much longer—he implies tragedy).

Apparently the war has distracted me (and a lot others) from some dramatic news. It seems the chi commie government is completely going nuts over COVID finally hitting them in a significant way.

They are locking down entire cities, like a drum. People aren't even getting enough food and are starving in their rooms. Some for 7 days, others say this could cause a revolution.

Anyway this video is like a science fiction movie, listen as literally thousands of desperate people scream for help and food:

Cannibalism could be a horrible consequence of the lockdown.

5 months ago the Chinese government told residents to stock up on food.

Why is China encouraging bulk buying? | Chinese stock up on staples after government advice | News
https://youtu.be/aDvRyEIlJiI

The Chinese government has urged families to stock up on essential supplies in case of emergencies. Food prices have traditionally risen in the country as winter nears. WION tells you why China is encouraging bulk buying.

What do the Chinese know about ‘Covid’ that we don’t?

This is the question. Is what we are seeing in Shanghai even covid? I credit the reports here on FR in December of 2019 with saving me a lot of pain in early 2020. By the time we were to go into shutdown, I didn’t need to go purchase anything. I even had toilet paper when friends were crying about none on their facebook pages.

China has a zero-covid policy. Is it a misguided policy? I have my own opinion on it, but that is an entirely different discussion.

Biden regime sending out ‘free test kits’ a few months back and we all laughed as they arrived too late for omicron at Christmas. And omicron was mild. Slow Joe policy or is something else coming. Last time we saw stuff like this in China, it took 2-3 months to go full-blown here in the States.

In order to assess what is happening in Shanghai, we need to look at the long game happening there. Looking back and forward at their goals and determine just what that strategy actually is. Looking back they told residents to stock-pile food. As the reporter notes it was an odd order at the time. Now 5 months later we are witnessing Wuhan style lockdowns again. People being physically locked into their apartments...again. Lockdowns in other Chinese cities were not this severe. Why now ....why now, indeed.

U.S. Pullout of Locked-Down Shanghai Deepens China Tensions
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-04-12/u-s-tells-non-essential-government-workers-to-leave-shanghai

The U.S. ordered all non-emergency staff at its Shanghai consulate to leave China, drawing a rebuke from Beijing and generating criticism even from Americans in the locked-down financial hub.

The State Department ordered the departures Monday, according to a post on its website, as most of Shanghai’s 25 million residents were restricted to their homes for at least two weeks. Anger has risen over food shortages, the inability to access medical care and even pet killings.

U.S. consulate staff in China help Marines running low on rations
https://www.reuters.com/world/china/us-consulate-staff-china-help-marines-running-low-rations-2022-04-06/

HANGHAI, April 6 (Reuters) - Generous colleagues helped out seven U.S. Marines at the U.S. consulate in Shanghai who were running out of fresh food because of a strict coronavirus lockdown, according to posts in private consulate message groups.

Shanghai has been hit by food shortages as the citywide lockdown puts pressure on delivery staff amid surging COVID-19 numbers.

A U.S. consulate employee issued a plea on the WeChat platform on Tuesday for staff to spare some food for the Marines. He was not acting in an official capacity, a person with knowledge of the matter said.

The stories of large groups of population starving to death are incredible. A new wave is coming.

“...and CUT! That was perfect, people. Take five and then we’ll tackle the trying to squeeze out of the welded apartment doors scene and after lunch we’ll shoot the stacked bodies on gurneys at the hospital bit.”

Something is happening in China. Something big, I think.

Democrat authoritarians everywhere are so jealous. The thought of torturing a few million deplorables in red state cities with starvation and lock-down force is just the plan.

Thank goodness for the right to bear arms. For now?

I hope not. I sincerely hope not.

but even the US has ordered non-essential people out.

What's happening?

this looks like Wuhan in the middle stages, like I said we didn't see this in the other lockdowns in China.

Yes, If the chi Comms are good at anything, it’s preventing counter-revolutions.

It has. Amazing given that Shanghai is the financial nerve center and major shipping hub of China. Does not bode well for the future

I used to think Stalin was history’s greatest mass murderer until I read that book.
