A man in China was forcibly removed from his home after he allegedly refused to go to a COVID-19 quarantine facility.

In a video CNN published on Friday, two men wearing white hazmat suits inside a home were seen trying to drag a man off of a living room couch. The man, who was yelling during the situation, was trying to get away from the two men while reaching to grab the couch.

The situation took place on Nov. 30 in the eastern city of Hangzhou, just southwest of Shanghai.

"He was identified as being a 'close contact' of a person who tested positive for COVID-19," the video's on-screen text read, crediting the Linping District Government as a source.

"Authorities also said they 'reprimanded and educated the relevant individuals,'" the video's on-screen text continued.

On social media, people showed their disapproval of the situation, with many calling out China's apparent approach to handling the coronavirus and following a "zero-COVID" policy.

"They do not play," an Instagram user wrote.
"There's something wrong about their quarantine that he's refusing," one person added, while another replied saying, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Seems awfully terrified."
"D—n, and folks in the U.S. complaining about wearing a mask," someone penned.
"This will bring on a revolution, that's for sure," someone else shared.
"They're eventually gonna make it worse and cause what they are trying to prevent. Mediating might help," one person added.
"But they are already in quarantine in their homes under their strict COVID lockdown rules," another wondered.

China has been seeing unprecedented protests over its strict "zero-COVID" policy in recent days, with many people in other countries — like Japan and Germany — showing their support with their own demonstrations.
More than two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, tens of millions of people in China remain under strict lockdowns with the policy, which aims to completely eradicate the virus.

Dramatic protests in China's major cities, like Beijing, Zhengzhou and Shanghai, have forced the government to ease some of its COVID-19 restrictions in some parts of the country.

Funny that china let something like this get made public at all given the current situation
 
Is this another Putin situation where Xi is deathly afraid of the Coof or is there some 5head sixth dimensional chess play for all this nonsense that I am not seeing?

I mean, I get why Xi was doing this initially when he was using fear of the coof to suppress his people into compliance (like every other government on the planet did), but it has clearly gone past the point where it brings him and his party any tangible gain and is causing nothing but problems across the board.

Then again, its not exactly new for the CCP to learn anything after causing grievous harm to their own people.

It probably has to do with the Chinese idea of saving face. Literally everything they do has to be approved by the filter of "does this make us look like we're admitting to a mistake?" It is baked into Chinese DNA that they must never admit that they were wrong or made a mistake.

Can't they do like the west did, make a shitty vaccine and say it solved everything even though it did barely anything at all?

Consequences of authoritarianism - excess of force and doubling down to save face and prove you were right. In their eyes admitting that their policy was a failure and that everything they've done up to this point was useless is political suicide.

That would also signify that their Zero COVID policy has failed, and also makes them look bad because they need to resort to the same things that the West did. Not only do they have to keep on saving face, but they have show that the Chinese way is superior to the West.
 
"Damn, and folks in the U.S. complaining about wearing a mask," someone penned.
I really hope the word "damn" here was censored by the organization that published this shit, because if this gets any more cucked I'm probably going to have an aneurysm. Even then, fuck this retard faggot. Accepting being told to wear a mask ends up with this shit. This person is a useful retard. I can't even imagine being like this. Does this person think that everybody who lived under the reign of the Soviets just woke up one fucking day and thought "yeah, sending anybody who ever opposed the government to the gulags sounds awesome".
That's not how this shit works. Yeah, the US got hit hard by corona, but the fact people got upset over wearing masks prevented states from going through a constant loop of lockdowns every time infections increased. This asshole deserves to have their brain scooped out with a crowbar. Fucking hell, I'm MATI. Is this moron even able to be classified as sentient with this much of a lack of pattern recognition?
 
@Harambe, you seem to have some on-the-ground experience with how Chinese government policy works; do the people who do this kind of stuff act so forcefully because it's some sort of ideological thing that's part of their training, or is it more of a "I've got the local committee and the commissar riding my ass on this, so you drag these motherfuckers out by their ass hairs if you have to" kind of thing?
