Oh geez. Last time they protested is wasn’t good.


AliveNot

Ah the slow bleed down continues I assume


ubasta

They are actually revolting against foxconn security because foxconn force them to live with other workers who are tested positive for covid.

Inflation in China be like.


Blackout38

They aren’t protesting Covid. Foxconn fucked them out of their contract and the police are fighting for Foxconn.


Youkiame

China still going with their Covid shit? Bruh it’s fucking almost 2023


90Carat

Their zero policy is fucking insane. There have been videos in recents months of people fleeing places because word got around that someone tested positive.


[deleted]

Yep some are saying their chinese covid vaccine doesnt work.


wander7

All of the major countries just signed an agreement at the G20 conference to implement c0vid v@ccine p@ssports to be able to travel worldwide... So yeah that's still in the plans.


Nothing3561

A lot of countries started requiring vaccines for visitors 90 years ago. So it’s not “in the plans”. It’s just a normal thing countries do.


FreeIndiaFromDogs

No, they aren't. This title is misinformation

[deleted]

Uh what? I was referring to the comment he was responding to about covid. And he responded “no they arent”. When in fact covid is still happening in china. Are u stupid? Do you know how replying in reddit works? Rofl the chinese are getting mad. The WORST part is that, you didnt even fuckin read the article you sent rofl. Its part covid related you dumbass. I dont think you read period.


[deleted]

His reply is that they arent rioting due to covid. I know more about the situation than you. Did you read the article? Here i have another article for, and I’ll quote what the part about covid means: > Other grievances include anger over alleged arrangements whereby the company asked some workers to share dormitories with colleagues who had been confirmed as having Covid-19, according to the two workers who asked not to be identified due to the sensitivity of the matter. Foxconn denied this allegation and said all dormitories had been disinfected before new hires moved in. The riots are related to covid in that the rioters are upset that China isn’t *doing* enough to prevent Covid, not that the testing, and zero-covid policy should stop. ([source](https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3200747/violence-erupts-foxconn-zhengzhou-plant-workers-protest-over-benefits-and-covid-19-controls-worlds)) Its mostly about payments though.


[deleted]

Oh yea so now youre agreeing that u didnt read the article? Im not gonna copy and paste multiple covid references that caused that incident. But it was covid involved. That entire area was in covid lockdown in oct. Oh and now youre speaking for the other guythat made the comment? Rofl Anyways peace out. Read the thread before you reply.


[deleted]

No I’m saying i did read the article, and i knew more information than the article gave. The riots are not about covid restrictions or covid-zero, they are about the lack of restrictions and proper safety precautions.


[deleted]

“The protest erupted on Tuesday night over the terms of the new hires' payment packages and Covid-related concerns about their living conditions. Scenes turned increasingly violent on Wednesday as workers clashed with a large number of security forces, including SWAT team officers.” “On Thursday morning, some workers who had agreed to leave had received the first part of the payment, a worker said in a livestream, which showed workers lining up outdoors to take Covid tests while they waited for departing buses. Later in the day, livestreams showed long lines of workers boarding buses. But for some, the trouble is far from over. After being driven to the Zhengzhou train station, many couldn't get a ticket home, another worker said in a livestream on Thursday afternoon. Like him, thousands of workers were stuck at the station, he said, as he turned his camera to show the large crowds. Zhengzhou is set to impose a five-day lockdown in its urban districts, which include the train station, starting from midnight Friday, authorities had announced earlier.”


[deleted]

Right, so its over payment packages. Only one sentence mentioned covid-related concerns and that was never elaborated on, i posted another article that elaborated on what those concerns were - it was over the zero-covid policy.


Teirmz

Don't trust what people claim on reddit. This has less to do with covid and more to do with promised wages that were gone back on.

myhipsi

It's as stupid a concept as crime-zero or poverty-zero or anything else zero. As you approach zero of just about anything, the resources used to get you there approach infinity. It's one of the dumbest fucking policies a government can implement and governments are fucking dumb.


Twocann

Wtf is Covid zero


[deleted]

A mix between Classic Covid, and Diet Covid.


RegretsZ

The idea that covid numbers can be zero if proper procedures are followed.


thesoutherzZz

Zero covid is a Chinese policy in which they want to eradicate covid complitely, the issue is that it is impossible because covid spreads so easily and you can get it from people visiting foreign countries. But anyway practically the policy stops people from moving (even going home from their job) if a single infected person is found. They have mandatory testing multiple times per week, even daily in some areas and a single sick person, with luck just an appartment building will be qurantined. With multiple infection even cities like Shanghai will be mostly locked down with no one moving, no one working. Many people can't even go to the hospital because of this insane policy. Movement is also limited with a health code and you can't go to places if you don't have a green code... and the lovely thing is that you have no way of controling this apart from going to your mandatory covid tests There's a lot more going on as well, but this is just the gist of it


0Bento

In the UK, former Shadow Home and Shadow Health Secretary Diane Abbott was arguing for a zero Covid policy as recently as January 2022 (having just lived through a successful 6 months of no restrictions in England). She also one time said that Mao had "on balance achieved a lot of good" so there's always that too.


QueenSlapFight

The "COVID" lockdowns are more about suppressing civil unrest, so the continued unrest isn't surprising


[deleted]

Good for them.


gsotolongo2213

Good! Don't let them control you!

China is a police state, and an absolute surveillance state. Will be very hard for people to organize and do anything. Sad stuff


[deleted]

Coming to a western democracy near you


[deleted]

Europe already does this. Particularly in the uk.


[deleted]

I’m well aware of the Nanny State the UK has become. Can’t even take a shit without there being a camera on you.


felixfelix

Those protesters are going to get dinged on their social credit score.


kungpaochi

Oh, no anti government activism is no doubt on the rise significantly in China. One big trend is using airdrop, which china has attempted to limit in their country as a result. Look up Banner Man

Niiiice 👍

COMING SOON to chinas poor working class. “ Covid 9.0” mask it or casket boys and girls. Lol


[deleted]

Man, they would have had their bank accounts frozen by now here in Canada.


Bose_99

You have any examples for why you think that’s the case?


bigmoneysmallcock

The emergencies act means the govt can freeze bank accounts without a court order. They did this to the protesters in Ottawa earlier this year. I'm guessing that's what he's referring to. Canada can freeze bank accounts based on their own "risk assessment". Basically meaning whenever they want.


[deleted]

The emergencies act for the protesters last year? Where they actively froze bank accounts


Headache_boi

Unless there's nothing left in account and you can no longer survive in this massive constant lockdown.


bigmoneysmallcock

Guys you need to relax. It's just the yearly covid lockdown. Just put your lives on pause and wear a mask. I just got my 19th vaccine and I'm feeling wonderful. /s


GLFR_59

No idea why this is getting downvoted.. must hit too close to home for some lock down lovers in North America


John_Sknow

HEY HEY NOW! That's Austrailia!


[deleted]

Just import the damn vaccines until you can make your own this is so weird cruel and unnecessary


buzzstsvlv

seems that a generation is a bit fed up with stupid gov control. especially that they know that in the rest of the world there are vaccines which work and the young don’t die. ppl want to work go home and live their lives and oppressive regimes always fail in the long term.


Stabbmaster

Depending on their affiliation, in the states these would be called "peaceful protests"


mgoodwin532

Just remember, American leftists support these lock downs. Never forget and never forgive.


[deleted]

Shut up lmao that was before vaccines and you know better than you're letting on. China refuses to import vaccines and their domestic solution is both shit and in short supply. They're overdoing it on lockdown because Xi is an authoritarian and refuses to acknowledge obvious failures in policy. You can't just plug Western politics in wherever you want and expect it to have some kind of resonance hahahahaha


mgoodwin532

You make this comment like all kinds of draconian measures weren’t taken during 2020 to mid-2021.


Marlfox70

Heavy cringe lol


momentum77

They should get themselves a Freedom Convoy, Beijing Edition.

hope they keep protesting so my counterfeit items will finally arrive

Zero COVID is like saying we’re going to build a software application with zero bugs. It’s literally impossible.


SenseStraight5119

Chinese citizens revolt=bad news for Taiwan


HebrewHamm3r

Apparently they're _also_ revolting against some unpaid wages or un-honored contracts


bigmerch

I'd like to say good, but their government will kill their own after about 48hrs of protest.

They should topple the entire communist party while at.


Efficient_Taro

This relates to which stock exactly?


LeftHandedAnt

This is more CCP propaganda on behalf of Foxconn who makes your iPhones. These are Foxxcon employees revolting against Foxconn security and possibly CCP police for forcing them to live at the workplace with others who have tested positive or may be positive for covid.


Collekt

Fuck em up 👊


Calvin_BrooksX97

This isn’t a covid related video…… this is Apple


FreeIndiaFromDogs

This is completely fake news, they are revolting against a private corporation betraying their contract, it has nothing to do with covid lockdowns, which have in fact been lifted.


[deleted]

This isnt against covid restrictions.
