OK, the Chinese (by which I mean CCP, I have no problems with Chinese people) are many things but they aren't stupid.

Please explain why they are doing this.

1) They "know" something about "long Covid" and are trying to protect their people

2) Their economy is screwed and this is just a cover story to stop bank runs (remember, China "beat" Covid when the West was in lockdown, this is a hell of a climb down)

3) They are gearing to a war economy and this is how you keep all the pesky peasants from sharing all the tanks rolling by on social media

Locking down tens of millions of people for a handful of mild cold Omicron cases via a faulty PCR test is not reasonable or justifiable. There has to be a real reason. Please tell me what you think is actually going on.

Years ago a sign-maker told me: A business with no sign is a sign of no business.

Dictator Xi is like a business with no sign. He doesn't understand that prosperity comes from allowing people to interact with each other.
