    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      The paper the people are holding up are blank. A passive resistance to the government. No one can accuse them of writing bad things.

      Mainland china does not have twitter, but on the equivalent "Weibo", there was a hashtag #blankwhitepaper that was going around. That has since been censored and not allowed.

          One wonders how the American left judges the virtue of those protests. Just kidding, that's like wondering what flounders think about metaphysics.

          Education is extremely important.

                  @jon-nyc The question is can President Xi hold the COVID policies long enough for this to happen. He is too far gone into it to gracefully back down now.

                  To answer my own question - he can hold the COVID policies as long as he wants I think. With the recent 5 year party congress, he has even a more iron grip on the government.

                      Has anybody told them that the virus escaped from one of their own labs where they were genetically modifying it yet?

                            Japan Disney story is selling shirts, coffee cups, etc with Winnie the Pooh holding a blank piece of paper.

                            Winnie the Pooh character has become somewhat of substitute for President Xi, going back to this satire

                                Why say anything? All three of our largest problems have significant civil unrest. This is a good thing. Don't fuck it up.

                                      The closest the west came to this was Trump flirting with the idea of quarantining NYC.
