Protests in China are not rare. What *is* rare, are multiple protests over the same issue, at the same time, across the country. The protest below, apparently in central Beijing’s liangmaqiao, is astounding #China #protests pic.twitter.com/UHJCqqF1YG

Anti-lockdown protests in China spread as fury grows over zero Covid policy
- Hordes of students have staged a huge protest at Tsinghua university in Beijing over CCP’s Covid controls
- Comes hours after mass protests broke out on Saturday night in Shanghai – China’s biggest financial hub
- ‘Lift lockdown for Urumqi, lift lockdown for Xinjiang, lift lockdown for China!’ the crowds in Shanghai chanted
- At one point a large group began shouting, ‘Down with the Chinese Communist Party, down with Xi Jinping, free Urumqi!’, according to witnesses and videos in a rare public protest against the Chinese leadership
- Public fury forced authorities in Xinjiang to open up parts of the capital Urumqi – subject to a punishing ‘zero-Covid’ lockdown for over 3 months – after at least ten people in a fire at a locked-down apartment block
- China is battling a surge in infections that prompted yet more brutal lockdowns and restrictions across nation
- Beijing is attempting to stick to a zero-covid policy even as much of the world tries to coexist with the virus
JUST IN: Life in China now.
People are lining up to take daily routine COVID test under police supervision.
The health authorities are now carrying some serious weapons … just in case 🚨 🚨 🚨 🔥
