(note: while WSWS (trot site) uses CCP instead of CPC, they generally have good takes on China and support China against US imperialism)
(note: to clarify, this article is in support of Zero-COVID and sees the lifting of the policy as a grave mistake)
(note: i do not necessarily support all the shit wsws says i am not a fucking trot)
Yeah so that’s never going to happen in the next few decades so they just want China to sit in economic isolation and slowly withdraw and have their economic gains lost?
So the Chinese government should collapse the economy instantly by getting everyone sick and thus unable to work?
To answer your question with a more relevant question, should China continue in economic lockdown and isolation forever? Is this sustainable? (No it is not)
There isn’t even a choice here, it’s a foregone conclusion when the world failed to contain the virus, the CCP hand is forced by material reality
Yes, they should actually. It is better than the alternative which is to cave into the US bioterrorist demands to embrace a pro-COVID policy.
The CCP has determined it is not viable to continue zero-Covid forever and they are losing popularity of the masses. That’s their decision and the decision of the Chinese masses, you do not have the relevant data the CCP does
They will reconsider once people are rioting over empty pharmacy shelves.
Ok oh wise westerner, why don’t you go work for the CCP since you should override them with your wisdom
Let's wait and see. I have immunocompromised family in China, and I am invested in the situation.
You don’t think the CCP has immunocompromised members or family or are invested in the decision? Maybe cut the utopian trot shit that fills this article
