    CPC members have been hit hard the last couple of years. They're the ones that get tagged to "volunteer" to man all the virus testing centers and stand outside toll booths telling motorists to open their phones and display their green codes. Plus in school you have to attend all sorts of meetings in your nonexistent spare time. It's pretty tough.

      Yeah i'd imagine is hard. Pulling of zero Covid required and requires huge grassroots party efforts. And that it succeeded it shows that at least party still can function and mobize at those levels. Sure a lot of members probably are fed up , especially yougner ones, but they have helped save millions of lives and a lot of them along wih a majority probably acknowledges it

        By "volunteer" I mean they get kicked out of the Party if they don't. And it's work your regular job and then come out and spend your evenings and weekends away from family and rest doing repetitive jobs they don't like. Nobody wants to be the hall monitor, scanning everyone's health code to see if they're allowed to exit the highway.

          Well I understand that but at the end of the day they are grassroots members of a dem Central org at a time of great crisis. If socially necessary mobilization and hard work is dictated it's something you signed up for. And if you didn't and thought those days of having to bust your ass doing mass work through the party are over for China well too bad
