unlikely... they could crush Hong Kong anytime and no one will do anything. They would have been able to create a fake outbreak with media magic if they'd wanted to, and no need for a new virus either when they have decades worth of flu samples on ice.
It would also be kinda dumb for them to make a virus that kills only their own kind and the Chinese are not dumb.
Isn't there a treaty or something where the chinks get to retake hong kong legally no matter what in like 10 years anyways?
Why would they even bother to do anything when they can just run out the clock on that. I might be misremembering this too because I don't give a fuck about them.
Because the people of hong Kong have shown that they will not go quietly. What they want to do to them in 10 years is 10 times worse than what they are protesting today. It would be expected that the Chineese government, having decided not to allow hong Kong continued autonomy, to break their spirit now while their resolve is not yet bolstered by the knowledge of the terrible fate that awaits them in 10 years.
There are many ethnic groups in China. The Han are by far dominant at this point (over 90% I think) because they have decimated the others. I don't think the Han would have done this to their own people on purpose.
While I agree that if the CIA were so inclined they could agitate for more protests, but the conditions were set up by the very nature of China's agreement with Britain. By allowing capitalism in Hong Kong for so long it proved beyond any reasonable doubt that it is an incalculably better way to live. Of course the people are going to protest having that taken away.
I agree with you. I think the way the CIA operates is that it finds existing riffs within other countries to exploit, and then funds the side that opposes the state they want to fight.
If they want to take down a country, they fund any existing rebel factions.
that was my assumption. but usually these things are far more convoluted but the basic elements of what happened are in place. like a covert op gone wrong so that multiple angles are trying to cover things up.
It wouldn't surprise me if some old Chinese lady found a dead bat in a dumpster by the lab and sold it to a street vendor who made dirty soup and infected someone.
"Oh man i sure am hungry from working all day at the chinese bioengineering lab but im too poor to buy foo.. Hey... I should eat this dog we just killed with some vitamin shot..."
Now that they're holed up, the Hong Kong rioters have all gone online to spread misinformation about the Wuhan flu. Its a massive psyop. The point was the Hong Kong riots was to set up a revolutionary base for color revolution in China, they are using the Wuhan flu to say that China is on the brink of collapse and that things are spiraling out of control.

So you're saying they were only off by 500 miles?

Somebody at the lab forgot to go through the decontamination chamber -- or wash his hands -- on his way out.

That's kind of like shooting yourself in the head to get rid of a toothache.

They've done it before

Look what our people have done to us

True but they could have just dropped it in Hong Kong. IDK.

I know man, but some of our people have sold us out to (((them)))

I'd guess the virus is another CIA tactic in the trade war ongoing in China. The protests were another tactic.

if it was designed as a weapon against anything they fucked up.
frankenmine ago
That goes without saying.

Nope. This was inevitable, as soon as china starting fucking around with bio-engineering.
I guarantee that this started with an escaped lab animal, or some dumb fuck who didn't comprehend biological security procedures.
Upwards of 80% of china commies don't use soap. At all.
True story. The only place you'll find hand washing soap in china is a four star hotel.

We have confirmed cases two weeks before any market exposure, and patient zero was not anywhere near the market.

watch any border security tv show that exists.
wait for a chinese person to come on, which is frequent.
watch them pretend they dont understand what boarding cards say.
watch them pretend they dont understand what the boarding cards say in chinese.
watch them still pretend they dont understand when a chinese border guard asks them why they cant read chinese.
watch for the next 15 minutes as the chinese people try and argue their way through any issue.
the whole thing about china is, the person who can argue the longest wins.

It's a backwards, communist shithole.
If our traitorous governments hadn't given our manufacturing capacity to them, they would be as irrelevant as they have always been.
High IQ folk have always fled china, for saner lands.

Didn't help at all that in the commie uprising the smarter ones were hunted down and killed. Permanently fucking their gene pool.
BushChuck ago
Everyone with an IQ above room temperature either fled, or was executed.
Followed by a couple decades of cannibalism, child rape, slave trading…your usual jew bullshit.

Well I'd say it has certainly taken attention off the protests.
frankenmine ago
But at what cost? Tens, maybe hundreds if thousands of natives dead, and billions in lost productivity and sales? This can't be the intended outcome.
MrDarkWater ago
China does that to it's population every once in a while
blumen4alles ago
They are dead yet, reported death toll is under 400. There is still time for a vaccine to say the day!
B3bomber ago
That's not how vaccines work.
frankenmine ago
Don't believe the official numbers. They're underreporting by at least a factor of 10.
