Largely successful? I wouldn't confuse Chinese propaganda to the outside world with success.





The Chinese government treated the pandemic as a bioweapon attack by a foreign adversary engaged in a broader hybrid war, and it did so effectively.

That's batshit insane.

A country targeted in an ongoing hybrid war by the world's #1 superpower would have a (relatively) extreme response to a pandemic that originated in an epidemiologically interesting location deep in their inland territory, and that extreme response having any substantial national security impetuous is "batshit insane". Insightful contribution!

A big country would never overreact to national security threats. We have the TSA to protect us from that :)


I was referring to your characterization of the situation.

Another empty, dismissive comment. Why are you even commenting on this site?
