Here are several videos of what’s happening in China—a horror story that “our free press” is not telling, since all they do is pump out propaganda, and propaganda only tells one story at a time. Thus COVID was the only cause of death throughout 2020 (there was no death pre-COVID), just as climate change was, as it still is, the only threat to the environment, and Trump was, as he still is, not only the worst president in US history, but the only bad one (Bush and Cheney were both great, because they don’t like Trump, and Biden, if not great, is still okay, because he isn’t Trump). And since Putin is (for now) the world’s worst head of state, worse even than Assad (remember him?) and Maduro (does that name ring a bell?), and the worst that’s ever been, at least since Hitler (whom he resembles, just like Trump—whom Putin got elected), there’s nothing happening in China, Xi’s not so bad, and what’s happening in Shanghai doesn’t matter, because it’s not Ukraine, which is the only country under horrible assault, by (who else?) Putin.

So even though there are a lot of people jumping out the windows of their high-rise apartments in Shanghai, because they’re desperate, having been locked up for days without a bite to eat, and that horrific spectacle recalls the sight of those Americans who jumped from the Twin Towers on 9/11—a sight that “our free press” did show us—there’s just no story in Shanghai, or anywhere in China, because China isn’t Russia, Xi isn’t Putin, and anyway the COVID lockdown over there is not a crime against the Chinese people, because, beyond the fact that Putin is the only monster wielding power in any country in the world today, there’s still COVID, which still poses an existential threat to all humanity, or will again, and, if not, there’ll be some other virus just as dangerous, requiring that the US, and the world, be locked down, too.

Here, then, are some shocking glimpses of what “our free press” is not reporting about China:

And here’s an interview with a Ukrainian woman in a Shanghai COVID camp (a story that “our free press” must ignore, because she didn’t lie about atrocities committed by the Russians in her native country, but told some truths about what’s happening in Shanghai):

And here’s an excellent Substack by “Edward Slavsquat,” who rightly asks if we might finally talk about what’s happening over there:
