Research Shows Deliberate Chinese Propaganda Campaign Forced World Into Lockdown; The Communist regime flooded social media with fake videos and bots to whip up COVID hysteria
Summit News ^ | 09/28/2020 | Paul Joseph Watson

Researcher and attorney Michael P. Senger suggests that the Chinese government launched an aggressive propaganda campaign to exaggerate the severity of coronavirus in order to force the rest of the world into a draconian lockdown that would serve to benefit Beijing.

In an article for Tablet Magazine, Senger details how in late January, “international COVID-19 hysteria began” with a series of suspicious videos posted to social media sites showing people in China suddenly collapsing on the streets, including one instance where a man held out his arm to break his fall, suggesting the collapse was staged.

After tens of millions of people were confined to their homes during one of the most brutally enforced lockdowns in history, Senger notes how in February the CCP “reported an exponential decline in coronavirus cases, until March 19 when they announced their lockdown had eliminated domestic cases entirely.”

China has officially recorded just 4,634 deaths from coronavirus, despite having a population almost five times larger than the United States, where the current death toll stands at over 205,000.

The World Health Organization and other scientific experts then waxed lyrical about China’s response to COVID-19, which is what led to virtually every other country on the planet mirroring its approach.

However, Senger argues that the initial hysteria over COVID and lockdown that followed could have been a carefully orchestrated Chinese propaganda campaign to hoodwink its hegemonic competitors into destroying their own economies in response to a virus with a relatively low fatality rate.

The researcher documents how armies of Chinese bot accounts on Twitter were instrumental in promoting early lockdowns in countries like Italy while bombarding political figures who refused to order strict lockdowns, such as South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, with criticism and abuse.

By promoting fraudulent data, aggressively deploying disinformation, and flexing its institutional clout, Beijing transformed the snake oil of lockdowns into “science,” crippling rival economies, expanding its influence, and sowing authoritarian values.https://t.co/VdC2DkDckG — Michael P Senger (@MichaelPSenger) September 16, 2020

He also highlights how Chinese state media organs savaged the “herd immunity” approach, which was initially considered but then rejected by several western leaders, as a violation of “human rights.”

Sweden, which went for the herd immunity approach by refusing to enforce a lockdown and came out economically better than any other European country, was also targeted by the bots, as was British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who was accused of engaging in “genocide” by initially considering the herd immunity approach.

Senger’s conclusion explores why China aggressively emphasized the need for global lockdowns.

“The most benign possible explanation for the CCP’s campaign for global lockdowns is that the party aggressively promoted the same lie internationally as domestically—that lockdowns worked.
For party members, when Wuhan locked down it likely went without saying that the lockdown would “eliminate” coronavirus; if Xi willed it to be true, then it must be so. This is the totalitarian pathology that George Orwell called “double-think.” But the fact that authoritarian regimes always lie does not give them a right to spread deadly lies to the rest of the world, especially by clandestine means.”

“And then there’s the possibility that by shutting down the world, Xi Jinping, who vaulted through the ranks of the party, quotes ancient Chinese scholars, has mastered debts and derivatives, studies complexity science, and envisions a socialist future with China at its center, knew exactly what he was doing.”

Senger’s theory holds weight when one considers how China has now been back to “normal” for months, while western countries, still panicked by COVID hysteria, continue to lockdown their citizens and cripple their own economies despite hospitalizations and deaths due to coronavirus having flatlined in countries like the United Kingdom.

Americans better WISE UP/
Key swamp demons were making fortunes when they allowed US companies in a number of industries including pharma, computer; and electrical as well metal fabrication components even bicycles relocate their factories in China . To the point where China was our sole supplier. The money the CCP has now comes from US .If we play our Chinese checkers right we can really turn things around for the better not only here but in China as well.
Every time an American looked at an item for where it was made in it came from China. Now China’s reliance making everything was being threatened by a change in leadership in America which was a major consumer of those products. When Americans hailed their leaders decision to make many of them in their country US. Their politburo worried.

Worse yet opponents to the Chinese regime in power had its citizens protesting its policies , as in Hong Kong, since that change in American leadership wave the American flag and present his name when doing so. All of which presented those in power the need to destroy that leader Donald Trump.

Would a runaway plague created by a nation which could threaten populations of an enemy cause them to react by demanding extreme restriction of movement by its population to prevent its spread ? Thus wind up fragmenting its economy and create defeat for that leader’s upcoming election.

The way this whole thing developed starting with the Italian fashion industry areas controlled by the Chinese commies hit by a runaway CCWV (Chinese Communist Wuhan Virus) breakout occurred in Wuhan the politburo closed off Wuhan but did not warn the Italian Socialist government or the Pope with whom the Chinese government had good relations with.

But certainly violated when the socialists should have been informed and allowed to deny those Chinese workers who replaced Italians in those factories taken over by the Chinese travel to and from China particularly for their New Year while this was occurring. Which Trump did with the exception of only allowing American citizens returning..
Sure looks suspicious particularly when crews of US naval vessels somehow wind up being infected by it while visiting certain Asian ports before that showed up in Italy.

Print this up and get this out there in your precincts

There seems to be a refusal in certain political circles known as the Swamp to blame the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) for deliberately using the Wuhan virus to create an economy here which would prevent Trump get reelected. Letting that happen will create problems we don’t need. Time we point out the loss of employment and the corruption involved.

Makes me wonder exactly how much the Chinese benefited financially from this virus.

Aside all that this particular virus, according to people in medical and biological research shows components which are not normally found in viruses of this type, what indicates that this virus may have been purposely brought into being by the Chinese to be used in a roundabout way to create economic havoc which it certainly has. Let’s face it, lately the Chinese economy certainly has not exactly been on fire much to the detriment of the communist party there which is hell bent on world domination, not to mention to keep their own population docile and peaceful. They are also well aware that a shooting war with the US is out of the question as they would end up on the short end of the stick.

But he Chinese mind is by no means is idle, and what better way to level the playing field than to drag their presumed competitor down. This is one of socialist-communist-liberals-progressives preferred method of leveling the playing field and it doesn’t matter if it happens to be China the US or wherever else these socialist creatures my reside. If you can’t come up with any better ideas or products just bring the opposition down to your level by whatever means necessary, even if it means dumbing down the general population in order to make them more compliant and receptive to some of the ignorant, dumb and at times outright lies by their so called leaders. And in this instance it appears to have worked quite well.

Imagine that.

I didn’t have a problem with 15 days to flatten the curve, as we didn’t know what to expect. We didn’t have the facts at our disposal and had to work with the information we were given.

Once we were past that, it became increasingly obvious it wasn’t about the virus or protecting us at all. It was clearly about control.

And now they know how to panic people and clamp down even more. There are still far to o many gullible and hysterical people out there who will absolutely flip at the thought of another virus making the rounds.

I’ve been seeing flu shot signs everywhere and I’ll betcha, there’s a huge push for it and they will run out of vaccine, people are so paranoid.

And I’ll bet they got the wrong virus.

Again.

Now the thing for all of us to do is to ensure that Donald J. Trump is re-elected President!

Round Heels Harris, Sloe Joe and their LIEberal co-conspirators and henchmen/women are in the Communist Chinese leader’s pockets! Bought and paid for! They mean to do us great harm, and are a Clear and Present Danger to our FRee Republic!

I am beyond convinced that if Harris/Biden win on November 3, they will work with Big Tech and China to destroy our FRee Republic!

There is no question in my mind that that the fate of the FRee World rests on this election!

When President Trump is re-elected, he will have a clear path to REALLY DRAIN THE SWAMP! Doing so will set up a four year resurgance of Faith, FReedom and Family in the USA, and that will be contagious world-wide.

I don’t know but Pelosi was dumb enough to be inviting people to a Chinatown festival in San Francisco in late March.

Maybe not.

I wouldn't put it past her or any democrat to deliberately infect people so they could implement this kind of lockdown and see how easy it is to control us.

What are a few lives lost to them in their bloodlust for power?

Nothing. They are just a basket of deplorables. All expendable crewmen.

I don't think it was about China benefiting financially.

I think it was about getting rid of Trump and getting in a Chinese controlled democrat in office to finish taking down this country leaving China with the upper hand.

Pretty hard to fake air-quality data and crystal clear blue skies over China. Tom-tom GPS data showing no traffic in the streets is also tough to fake.

Their number of 4,634 is easy enough to fake. As is our 200,000+.

I’m guessing they know the stuff they have in the lab, and thought something worse had escaped.

I thought the same thing when I saw the videos of the “spray trucks” driving six abreast down the street blowing what looked like steam all over everything. They really went out of their way to instill panic.

21twelve ~ I’m guessing they know the stuff they have in the lab, and thought something worse had escaped.

My concern is that the something worse will be release deliberately once we're all nicely conditioned to repudiate masks and distancing after we discover the COVID-19 hoax...

Aside from the financial benefits, I think China is using this as a diversion. Watch for their true intentions next month. With much of the west in chaos over Covid-19, and a political civil war brewing in the USA, there is a possibility of China invading Taiwan in October. The western powers will be paralyzed and indecisive about retaliating.

I have no doubt something else worse is waiting in the wings.

I wonder if that’s going to be our *October Surprise*.

Now that we’ve all collectively been conditioned to fear our own shadows, It will be easy to get panic started again.

Matter of fact, it doesn’t have to be worse. They just have to make us think it’s worse.

I’m prepping not out of fear of the virus but out of caution due to this country’s response in panic buying.
