    Agreed. Lots of people in the US praised the chinese rapid response to covid and how it was able to staunch the spreads.

    But like…they welded people’s door shut. They threatened normal citizens with bodily harm my guys. Being “good at covid” was a side effect of their one-party rule that we criticize every other year.
