I don't pretend to be an expert on China and I realize that much of the information available is slanted.
What is going on with the lockdowns and the restrictions on daily life seems to have a serious impact on the average Chinese population. The apartment fire was a catalyst but the abuses under the cloak of protection from the wuhan flu have been increasing in scope and reach.
Despite the threat of arrest and detention people are going out and exhibiting their opposition to the years long wuhan flu battle that is obviously not working.
The protests are apparently country wide and show that the people have had enough.
As always I appreciate your information and your perspective
No expert am I. Though I observed protestors wore masks. If the PLA decides Xi has lost the Mandate of Heaven then the team that follows him more or less will be those Xi elevated. A bit like post-Mao. Despite many leaving the Party the Party is the power in the land. Overall the bamboo curtain remains intact. Though the collaboration with the WEF is very public.
Thanks for posting this. Like many people, my family has been a victim of the adverse reactions to the mystery substance. It is clear that this is a concerted effort to harm the people of the world.
The only upside to this attack is that the country that invented the wuhan flu is now experiencing an uprising of historical proportion.
China is a complex situation. We map our Western ideas onto a nation that does not have Western tradition. In 2000 I worked in travel sales sending elite alumni and elite private school students to China. My co-worker a graduated of Beijing University just prior to Tianamen. He had a Poly Sci degree. MA level. He explained that Chinese people were very afraid of a return to civil war and war lords. They wanted stability. They accepted the Party as it delivered stability-after of course the Cultural Revolution. He was not a party member.
These victims are couching their views far too moderately; as if from a script, where they have to say that they are pro-vaccine in general.
( Sorry I have not watched it all.)
Courage and reaching masses are two distinctly different ideas.

Beautiful. Thanks. Excellent reminders of where we have stood and do stand.
