I couldn't agree more! I've passed through China many times we stayed in a hotel in Hong Kong 15 years ago in a room the size of a parking space. I'd never want to live there but Hong Kong relative to the rest of China was warm and appeared pretty unpolluted from the airplane window: dark blue Hawaii-esque waters and very few cars. Landing in Beijing or Shanghai one was treated to a grey, cold, noxiously polluted view. There may be a greater genetic susceptibility in Asians for some variants, or the useless jabs are creating ADE. But looking at videos like the one shown it looks like every control machanism put in place would make the pandemic worse, not better, by forcing people into tight packed quarters for routine testing and welding them into tiny spaces together smaller than a jail cell in solitary confinement. Oddly Hong Kong in the face of mass carnage is actually easing restrictions. This is the dark dystopian future of the world we can all look forward to: I can't comprehend how all this is being done for public health or even just for Xi to save face...

Hard not to view the white-suited anonymous thugs as insects as they herd the Chinese citizens toward the swabs.
