What do you think of Wu Xiaobo’s article “The Metaphor of Zibo Barbecue” blocked in China?
Zibo Barbecue is fulfilling people's common people's imagination of a free market: high-quality and affordable commodities, a hearty consumption experience, a market environment that is childlike and honest, and a humble and friendly "small government". Text/Wu Xiaobo Any popular occurrence is essentially a catharsis of social emotions. In the beginning, it was a collective unconscious, which then constituted a contemporary narrative. The popularity of Zibo barbecue does not meet the definition of popularity in the economic sense. It is neither scarce nor a new invention, nor does it represent a certain fashion. Its metaphorical significance lies in the "here and now" and the expression of freedom by the common people. It is said that the detonators of Zibo barbecue were those college students who were treated well during the epidemic. In May last year, more than 12,000 students from universities in Jinan, Shandong, and other places were taken to Zibo for isolation. The government specially invited the students to have a barbecue and agreed that everyone would bring their friends to visit Zibo again when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. This "promise" is a kind of aimless expectation, but in the end, the beneficiary interprets it as a warm return movement. In the world of the Internet, college students have always been the most active fermenters of popular culture, and they are the core elements of what Gladwell called "the law of personal characters" and "the law of environmental power". The emotions would be smoky, which in turn triggered the "post-epidemic empathy" of the whole society. The popular second-level detonator is the local government of Zibo. They are actively complicit in their emotions. In the past three months or so, they have distributed barbecue coupons, launched a dedicated barbecue line, organized and arranged for barbecue volunteers, and…
Until 2022, the China mainland government, still Forces residents to do compulsory nucleic acid tests.

Fuck! The whole city in China, Anhui province will be blocked for 11th nucleic acid testing again and again during August 2022
Another city-wide lockdown for nucleic acid testing. Faced with hundreds of coronavirus nucleic acid tests and prolonged city lockdowns in mainland China over the past few years, it's tough to be happy. FUCK !!!!!!! Mainland China Nucleic acid testing, groups of 20, citizens "free", the government pays, the price is 0.5-1 us dollar/person The newest lockdown lasted for more than half a month。 What's worse, it's hard to know when the subsequent urban blockade will occur in the Chinese Mainland and how long the city closure will last. Chaotic management occurs repeatedly, and it's hard not to be disgusted. 又要全城封锁进行核酸检测了,在中国大陆过去的几年里,面临数百次的新型冠状病毒核酸检测和长时间的城市封锁真的很难让人高兴。 fuck !!!!!!! 中国大陆 核酸检测,二十人一组,公民“免费”,政府付钱,价格0.5-1 us dollar/person 封城基本上持续半个月以上.更糟糕的是,我们很难知道在中国大陆下一次城市封锁会发生在什么时候以及封城会持续多久,混乱的管理一次又一次发生,很难不让人厌恶。 一次性病毒采样管 Disposable virus sampling tube

There are too many different ways to deal with the epidemic, so why do we care so much?
Today, after reading Langzhong, Sichuan news about the self-funded nucleic acid test for new coronary pneumonia, I lost the last bit of goodwill. Everything has a cost. It doesn't matter whether nucleic acid testing is charged or free.We should be more concerned about whether we are the target of protection in this epidemic. From the so-called non-essential (absolute prohibition in actual implementation), non-essential prohibition from leaving the community, campus, city, non-essential out-of-province, and non-essential out-of-country. All sorts of so-called non-essentials constitute shirk, and many become the price.Perhaps, some people feel that the so-called city closure is too scary. They have created a series of new words, such as dynamic clearing, social clearing, social control, static management, bubble management, global static… Here In the first stage, some people really have no income and need to face the cost of rising prices, so they only choose bridge holes and park seats as shelters. It's so pitiful. While worrying about their situation, you can imagine your own future situation and feel that life is dark and hopeless. If you are just ruled, Don't say anything; keep silent. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ At the end of April, people in Beijing lined up for nucleic acid testing.
