There seems to be consensus outside of China that their success with handling Covid was due to how orderly and accepted their lockdowns were. That’s not the case. There’s a new outbreak in guangdong and attempts to lockdown parts of foshan faced a massive protest last night.
collection of videos
our demands:
1) explain the rationale for continued lockdown
2) give us an estimate for when lockdown ends
3) why is mingdu still locked down if the outbreak was only in one building and there's no new cases 2 weeks later
4) please follow foshan's epimedic control standards (?)

lot of complaints that residents have no income nor government help beyond mutual aid groups
no response after calling the new government hotlines...
"We had a riot on our side, west Huangqi under the bridge."
"Look at 25th in Fangcun, 50,000 people in Fangcun :p :p :p"
"I was wondering why there were so many SWAT cars on the road tonight"

or west loop bridge i guess
"officials repress, citizens rebel"
people are saying there was a riot but i don't see anything that indicates much beyond a large spontaneous protest. if there's footage of violence/damage i haven't seen it yet
ok, the stuff on weibo seems to be getting scrubbed now, i might take a break. i have weirdly better luck on the mobile app than the desktop site's search function for whatever reason
"When will lockdown end? Can't give an exact time? Interested in controlling comments? In this peaceful golden age how many dissatisfied voices have you covered up?"
Huangqi in Nanhai has been locked down for 17 days and the government has extended it again, just for political achievement and regardless of people's livelihoods. Ordinary people are having their work hours exploited, no income, the state has no subsidies, fucking mud horse (??)
protesting is not wrong, unblocking is rational"
