Thoughts on this? How true is it?
what roll they’re taking.
I hope they take dinner rolls to the people. 🙃
holy shit I just had an epiphany; they're called the Rolling Stones because they play rock & roll
iirc it took about 6 weeks in 2020 for the virus to get under control in Wuhan, any word on what they expect in Shanghai?
Do you get more than 2200 kcal in food per person in your home per day?
When I had covid in the West I got nothing and rode the tail of my serious infection with oats, a pack of sugar, water and a bottle of vegetable oil I got at home.
thanks for shedding light on this, its good to hear from someone actually there what the situation is like, from their pov…. i dont really care for the hypothesizing happening in this thread
Totally unreasonable and unacceptable measures from the CCP, they should just let 1,000,000 people fucking die like a civilized nation, I wanna go to starbucks
taking one video of a single person screaming and claiming its large scale mass hysteria is about the level of evidence it takes to convince reddit
One Chinese person screaming during a lockdown means systematic human rights abuses.
Dozens of cops shooting unarmed black people in entirely unrelated incidents and places are just individual bad apples though!
This is a CIA op stop falling for this.

A systematic breakdown of quarantine or supplies would be a crisis. Everyone in Shanghai has phones and cameras and the fact that only a few of these videos are dribbling out, often of the same event, with Western intelligence agencies drooling is evidence that there is no systematic breakdown.
As a point of comparison, quite a few people also freaked out during the NZ lockdowns, and shanghai alone has the population of 5 or 6 New Zealands.
I posted my response when your post just said "are you on Chinese social media?" Since then you've edited your post to make my response look glib and selective.
Not interested in having this kind of conversation, so I'm disengaging.
Weird how the Known CIA outlets like ChuangCN and Radio Free Asia come out with articles about covid quarantine going badly right when this one does. Anyways, the only reason we hear about it here in America is because its bad and its intended to sour our opinion of China.
Basically, stop reposting stuff that CIA would enjoy you reposting.
We've had similar freakouts where I live. Our departments government is leftist and has actually taken the pandemic seriously. But the strictness has also caused people to get violent because of the ungodly heat. It isn't an easy situation and the government can only do so much to sustain us. I'm sure China is facing something similar, and it's even harder with how densely populated Shanghai is.
The comments themselves aren't as annoying. You have to scroll further down for the typical Reddit garbage. There's even pushback to some of the more unhinged nonsense.
Edit: So I looked more into it. A similar claim was made in 2020 with Wuhan. It was claimed that people were screaming and begging for help when in reality they were cheering each other on and giving slogans for support. Of course Reddit eats it up and uses it to justify their bias towards China. Western hubris really will be their downfall.
People were singing and playing music out the windows first time around, same thing happened a few countries. A few screamers happen but people are just acting up because it's a weird situation and they know they can. Redditors will spin that any way they want though and completely forget how it was in the first waves when our governments were doing the same thing, now that it's just China they'll completely pretend none of that happened in western countries at all. I literally remember screamers in western cities.
My city had an anti-lockdown protest yesterday and Germany even axed mask mandates last week except for public transit and medical facilities. Cranks being cranks is not indicative of any mishandling of any situation. And don’t want to downplay the mishandling of the Omicron-wave by Shanghai authorities, just that this extrapolating from very little information to an absurd degree.
Your post is good, and it is funny how people in the thread say: "They shouldn't do a hard lockdown, they should just do a targeted lockdown in Shanghai then it would be over soon and more people would be able to work/be free like the capitalists!"
While that idea was precisely what lead to the current problem in the first place.
This is an uncredited video posted by an anonymous reddit nobody with no date, no time, and no links to where it came from. The audio could be entirely fabricated. It could be footage from 2 years ago. It could be entirely fake. I don't understand the language they're speaking in the video, and it's likely that none of the "translators" in the comments there do either.
It's a waste of time to speculate on the living conditions of people in Shanghai based on this information.

Seems reasonable to yell a bit during a lockdown.
Isolation does fuck you up. I can do it, but only because I'm highly trained at it. :sadness-abysmal:
Drone in Shanghai China telling residents "Control your soul’s desire for freedom. Do not open the window or sing." - also on reddit, can anyone fluent in Mandarin confirm?
