I have seen video of starving animals locked inside homes.
Yeah, that's why you wait till covid is done before going over.

I would never consider China an option.politics. (and genocide)laws.pollution.internet.those are my deal breakers. if going along with that if fine by you for a couple extra schmekels... have at 'er
Anyways, most were too scared to take the risk and said "no, I'll stay here and be bitter and complain about my life instead. I'm scared something may happen in Asia." I was okay: "have at it." I moved on. They didn't. To each their own.
1. Many of those suicide videos are years old theyre not even in Shanghai, and the recent ones that were merged in the clip werent even from lockdown, they were mostly of people killing themselves due to financial hardship 2. The pets one is all over the place. Some neighbourhood districts have facilities to care for pets whose owners have been sent to central quarantine others dont. Some lockdown volunteers have decided to go on a power trip and kill one or two of these pets based on nothing more than brain dead decision making.3. People are screaming from balconies as a form of protest and solidarity because the policy of taking asymptomatic people to central quarantine with horrible facilities is quite frankly a very stupid, unscientific and highly political move. This is starting to change because a) some complexes and districts are no longer locked down, b) some asymptomatic cases are being allowed to quarantine at home.Things are pretty bad in some parts of Shanghai, with limited deliveries and no movement outside buildings while things are ok in other areas, where the restrictions arent as tight. As with many things China, theres a plurality of how laws and policies are implemented based on where you are and who youre dealing with.Try not to fall for the hyperbole next time.
Someones playing really crappy odds. Casinos must see you coming a mile off.
Yes, because the casino's would look at the person who sees a story like "Sex with llamas is rampant in country X" and projects it onto the country and see a card sharp. Whereas the person that's dubious and suspects it's at most a local or regional thing or small-scale fad, THAT is the sucker the casino's all crave. Also, judging by writings, the person ill-suited for the casino is the one who frequently uses terms like "possibly" "probably" "X percent chance" and other qualifiers, instead it must be the one who speaks in certainties and absolutes and can't handle a subtle argument to save their life.
A lot of the news reported about China, is like the news reported out of North Korea. Often exaggerated, and taken out of context. Like that burrito story, what's the original source of that story.. oh ya.. the reliable Guardian. Or stories about social credit scores, it was some experiment in some city for entering some park, but the western media ran with it as if it was national policy.
How can the Chinese government implement something in 2022 that even the Chinese government cannot adequately define in 2022?They can barely keep the great firewall coherent. Ironically the GFW isnt even one system, its several systems working independently of each other, but still following the directives of Beijing which is why it is easier to connect to sites like YouTube in some regions/cities in China even without a vpn.If after nearly 2 decades the GFW hasnt been perfected, what makes you think they will have the social credit system ready for roll out when even those in charge dont know what its supposed to be or do?
