@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper China did what it did to fix the problems it created, not to buy time for the West. Just don’t appease or glorify China. Never forget that if China hadn’t covered things up for 6 or 7 weeks and let 5M people leave Wuhan, the world would’ve been very very different: the loss of
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper human lives, emotional impact, chaos and disruptions. That’s already criminal behavior. And China didn’t even own up to its mistakes! It’s totally unethical and irresponsible. China’s draconian measures were simply belated corrective actions. All Xi wanted was to present an
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper image of competent and effective leadership both domestically and internationally. Anyone familiar with Chinese history should know that a firm grip on power and control is of paramount importance to Chinese rulers and to achieve that, human lives are dispensable. It would be
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper naive and ignorant at best and obsequious and fawning at worst to claim that China bought time for the world. True, the US and Europe were overly and inexplicably complacent all along but still, China didn’t do what it did to buy time for the West. The world didn’t owe anything
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper to China. Don’t forget that China, with WHO as an accomplice, actually blasted away at countries especially the US when they imposed travel bans to stop the spread of the epidemic; these were actually the right measures. But now China and WHO almost laughed at the West saying
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper they didn’t take things seriously? The China-backed Director General of WHO actually commented that there was no need for the US and Europe to overreact... Stop glorifying China or you are just a colluder. The world doesn’t need another Neville Chamberlain to endorse Adolf
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper Hitler. You don’t need to thank someone in your neighborhood who plays with fire in his house, lies about it and ends up burning down his house and damaging yours, someone who crows about his victory of putting out the fire at his house, shakes his head at your failure and even
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper claims the initial spark actually came from Mars and so he’s got nothing to do with the disaster. No, he didn’t buy you time. Actually you have every reason to sue him and hold him accountable. No, you don’t heap praises on someone like this, unless you wanna be the next Director
@iandenisjohnson @BethanyAllenEbr @MiraRappHooper General of WHO or something like that. The US and Europe are scrambling to take actions now but that doesn’t make China a saint or savior of the world!
