In Beijing, protesters have reacted to police demands in a different way.
They’ve acquiesced to a request for them to stop chanting “no more lockdowns” – and instead have taken to sarcastically demanding that they “want more lockdowns” and “Covid tests”.
When police ask the protesters not to chant “no more lockdowns”, so they chant this instead:
“MORE LOCKDOWNS!”
“I WANT TO DO COVID TESTS!”Folks. Let me remind you this brave effort also encapsulates the highest Chinese wisdom: weaponized passive aggressiveness. pic.twitter.com/PlzK2PCiMW
