Back in December 2019, the CCP did nothing to curb the spread of COVID. Chinese tourists were allowed to leave the country despite the fact that there was a deadly disease going around that the CCP knew nothing about. The CCP should have done something.

When the disease was hitting full force in the US, around March 2020, we were taking painstaking measures to make sure it didn't spread. Our own chairman of the CDC, Fauci advised us that masks were unnecessary and that riding the subway was fine. Despite this, the Chinese virus still managed to spread within our borders

All of this highlights the failure of the CCP to protect the world from COVID. We've only had 36 months do do something about it, but if the CCP had had the foresight to know something about something they knew nothing about, then we would've had 37 months instead. And that would've made all the difference.

      Two weeks from learning what the virus is to enacting a massive and unprecedented lockdown, compared to every other government on earth shrugging and letting the beast have free reign.

      Sure, they objectively did better, faster, more effectively, than any other government on the entire planet, but they're still clearly to blame bc reasons.

      99% sure this post is a bit about how the main complaint about China's response (IE "They suppressed the truth!") is total bullshit and if they had come out with all the info immediately and been totally open in the way the west claims they should have, it would have made no difference.
