It's probably more that they caught wind of some kind of international relief effort that will send them bulk innoculations that they'll turn around and sell to other countries once they receive them.

drat. There's no excusing those sorts of numbers. I mean, the US prison numbers are already inexcusable, so that's... way beyond inexcusable? Almost as if some sort of cultural genocide were taking place.

With lockdowns easing in some places, remaining in others, the current big topic for foreigners in China is "who is planning to leave and when?" Right now chatter suggests "almost everyone, and soon", but we'll see how that turns out. Job offers and conditions are improving as employers are spooked, but their target audience are people who haven't visited their home countries for several years at this point, and possibly haven't visited "outside their community/apartment" for weeks/months. Additionally, many seem to be waiting to see what happens after the lockdowns, although obviously that carries with it the risk of being part of the next. I'm sticking around because I don't have much of a choice, but it's interesting to follow the discussions. Wonder if I'll be one of the obligatory 2-3 sad old men propping up a bar when a fresh wave of bright young things arrive to explore the mysteries of a freshly reopened China sometime in 2050? Well, cyber-propping up a cyber-bar, because 2050.

In China, fleeting cyber protests leave fragile memories Fairly sobering article where they interview some activists who've witnessed waves of enthusiasm and energy on Chinese social media over issues like the Shanghai lockdown or the death of the whistle-blower Dr. Li Weilang only for all of it, including that momentum, to disappear. Like I've mentioned before, free expression online has been tightened in many ways compared to ten years ago. Much of the actual work of censoring falls to social media companies who are under enormous pressure to not let dissident posts slip by. They also talk to the author of a recent study on the subject. quote:We focus on two main types of Internet activity in which criticism and discourses emerge—online mass incidents and defiant enclaves—and compare their discursive elements. The core messages and critiques by leading activists and dissidents and their followers in the latter have become more multilayered, radical, and antiregime. Both types of political dissent are alive and persist, but the potential for them to connect various social grievances has declined in recent years, as state control over the Internet and digital spaces has significantly tightened.
