you're not wrong. definitely a lot of these leaked videos are pushing a narrative they want to put out there. i do believe that they, in coordination with the davos mf's, are trying to amp up th covid hysteria again for many reasons.

but, as an expat living in SH the past four years, i will tell you there is a genuine outrage and frustration with the gov. here, moreso than I've ever witnessed. the city is under strict lockdown, and hundreds of thousands if not millions, are suffering and struggling to provide for themselves and family. There are people protesting at the gates of their apartments. not saying the majority, most of whom would walk into an oven if ordered, but there are more people questioning th gov at least.

definitely be skeptical of the motives for releases and leaks. i am too. the policies here make no sense and a lot of chinese, especially those locked down for weeks and tested over 10 times, are truly frustrated.

how does this help the chinese nationals? maybe not much, but it is one way currently to show the world what they're going through.

cheers, and God bless
