Oct 13th, 2022 (the day before the 20th National Congress Meeting of the CCP), a man put up a banner and a speaker on Sitongqiao Bridge in Beijing.

On the banner it says:
''Life NOT Zero-covid Policy,
Freedom NOT Lockdown,
Dignity NOT Lies,
Reform NOT Regression,
Elections NOT Dictatorship,
Citizens NOT Slaves.''

Of course, he was arrested and all the related contents were censored.

The ZhengZhou Foxconn Escape

ZhengZhou Foxconn hires around 300,000 workers and manufactures half of the world's iPhones.

To maintain production, Foxconn has been coercing workers to go to work in exchange for meals. Amidst covid lockdown chaos, food shortage, forced labor and human rights abuse, plenty of migrant workers fled the factory and attempted to return home, on foot.

On the screen there is the 20th National Congress' propaganda: ''Happily welcome the 20th Congress, going with the party forever, for a brand new journey.''

WHAT A JOURNEY!

Due to lockdown, there was basically no public transport available, that was the main reason people chose to walk home. To avoid getting checked and being quarantined, many chose village paths. Even though the way home was extremely hard, escape became the only choice.

There were more. It's obvious that they are just using the pandemic to spread fear, to expand authoritarian rule over the people. They claim that they put the people and their lives as the top priority, well said, but PURE BULLSHIT.

Wonderful quarantine place, We're sure people get better there!

People being quarantined at outdoor parking lots in Lanzhou, while it's 10°C.

Surreal! People being quarantined in public toilets.

At least those people didn't die, there were more misfortunate ones. The pregnant woman being rejected by hospital then had miscarriage due to not have a green QR code to show that she was negative.

Two days ago, there was this fire in Ürümchi, Xinjiang. People were unable to escape due to the fucking lockdown policy, as all doors, including the private ones, were sealed by iron wire.

According to the official, only 10 people died (very possible only half was reported) due to their low safety awareness and weak capability of escaping.

Same old same, they tried to censor related information. But people started reposting an article in WeChat, which contains no other words but ''好'' (good/awesome/brilliant), even just this, the article soon got deleted.

People started reposting this instead, got deleted again. There's apparently no words allowed to be said in this country, but people were still reposting.
I'm always the hopeless kind when it comes to politics, especially with China.

The fire, sparked people's mourning and offline protests across the country.

By yesterday evening, at least 79 universities had open mournings or protests for the death.

Graffiti found in Beijing Institute of Fashion & Technology:
''People, law Institution, Freedom''
''Liberty or Death''

Statue of Lu Xun holding a piece of blank A4 paper in Chinese Academic of Social Sciences.

His famous quotes include: ''Lies written in ink cannot disguise facts written in blood.''
''But if a few awake, you can't say there is no hope of destroying the iron house.''

Graffiti found in Hangzhou, ''What are you afraid of?''

Ürümchi Road in Shanghai, a man was holding flowers and making a speech, being violently arrested. People around were yelling ''you cannot do this'' to the police.

A girl being beaten and arrested for just standing there and filming with her phone.

Now even holding a piece of white paper in public can get you into trouble. However, it has been breaking out in many cities, people go on streets with white papers, to speak the unspeakable.

Don't tell Chinese people to critique with reason, they were not left any room for that. We're sure everybody that chose to go for protest today, have been thinking about their position, deeply. They are brave enough to finally openly question & ask for what they should have had.

We know there could be all kinds of people in the protests, including people I would hate and fight with on the internet.

But they are also just people that have been struggling and finally need to yell, they are just common people that know doing this is probably useless but won't be able to convince themselves anymore to not to.

We hope you, our beloved followers and other anons accounts can pay more attention and openly support Chinese protesters, and if possible, help to organize some events to support Chinese citizens. Hope this time the flame won't just die again.

Last but not the least, the CCP way of stopping people from protesting on the Ürümchi Road in Shanghai: take off the road sign, We're amused.
