From Shanghai to Beijing, protests have erupted across China in a rare show of dissent against the ruling Communist Party sparked by anger over the country’s increasingly costly zero-Covid policy. As numbers swelled at demonstrations in multiple major cities over the weekend, so too have the range of grievances voiced – with some calling for greater democracy and freedom. CNN's Selina Wang reports. #CNN #News

Our drug and alcohol addiction! Our mental heath state in decline. Our voting system is a scam. 2 party system is only 1- own by banks, military Corp! Our liberties taken away by police, justice system, Congress, potus, scotus and military. Our debt problems. Our internet use to spy on us. Our fake media! China Russia is a distraction from Crimes committed by our corrupt leaders on us! Our illusion of freedom is pure propoganda. PRAY FOR THE USA and OUR LIBERTIES! It’s being taken away by our government for decades. China and Russia have their limits…. but our GOVT and Corp CEOs have BETRAYED US FOR DECADES!
@Matthew Curry
In China case, it is hard to say which side is good or bad.
It is often Good turns bad , it has been seldom bad turns good.
Whichever side good or bad , they plan and chose how to fight .
Both good man and bad man pick method to win no matter it is bad or good.

@Jumping Golda gatito That’s part to my point. There are many variables to what is good, and bad when decision making, and using action, or inaction. That’s why the quote is dumb. It is too narrow, and snobby. It sounds like the quote is just saying
“go off yourself for someones war pyssy”
@MRTOOTH0331 At least Saddam Hussein is better than America puppets
People are waking up and refusing to accept this restriction of freedom.
@Pilot Paulie If we liberals would have our way, you’d be on a plane to Russia, traitor
@rolback dont act like conservatives are any better. Politics are a sham
@no body I would disagree, the people you are referring to are a small minority but are the loudest which leads people to believe this
Zero covid is based in science.
It’s said, don’t wake the sleeping giant.
May God help these brave people in China. Praying for your freedom
God is dead and we killed him

You cannot help Chinese people, the only way is Chinese people free themselves.
👈🏻🫵🏻♾️♾️IN GOD WE TRUST:
@Joe WuGOD IS NOT DEAD,YOU ARE DEAD,WE KILLED YOU.
Praying for brave Chinese people,who fights for their freedom.
@Just Pray are you kidding me! Have you ever prayed for world peace ???
@Yo Mama Yes. And it will come in time. As long as man is in sin, there can be no world peace. God didn’t create sin, man chose that path. So for that prayer to be answered, men and women have to make a choice to repent. God will not force that on people.
@Just Pray so now you making excuses for you god , pray and asking to stop it now !! Is god so powerful? The he can stop it , yet again another pray has gone without answer what shame , your god is a joke
@Yo Mama If I’m wrong I’ve lost nothing and I’ve strived to do the right thing, and not hurt anyone. If you’re wrong, then you will have forever to ponder that decision.
But when Americans and Canadians were fighting against government controlling their health and freedoms they were horrible people.
Yes, people deserve freedom!!
They are all “science deniers”.
👈🏻🫵🏻♾️♾️THE TRUTH:
People who care and want freedom will rise and fight. Freedom is yours don’t miss this chance.
Imagine freedom of the press, freedom of speech and freedom of action being “controversial” where you live
Man we take these things for granted while massive countries like Russia and China totalling billions of people live like this.
@MRTOOTH0331 Who is saying they are ok with any of this stuff you speak of. I haven’t once read a post here claiming these to be good things. Pretty sure almost 100% of people would think these are all bad ideas.
@quitaulla 1 I disagree
@JR Porter lol can’t handle the heat? Get out of the kitchen sweetheart. Your life can’t be that bad. Go smoke one and put a smile on your face. 🙂
@SHiiFTY16 I went back up to the top to look for were the original post was for where I commented to you for the first time, and I did not see it.
Either you took it down or YouTube took it down because now I don’t know where I was going with it.
As for solutions, there’s plenty of solutions for just one problem. The problem is is which solution do you pick.
I think it might’ve had something to do with Twitter and freedom of speech and censorship but since it was many hours ago, it’s hard to figure out how the whole conversation started
Apologies for not being able to continue the conversation
You got that right!
Salute to the brave Chinese people 🇨🇳🇹🇼🇨🇳🇹🇼🇨🇳🇹🇼🇨🇳🇹🇼🇨🇳🇹🇼
Stand together. Everyone from everywhere. Always will be more people then there are of leaders.
Easy for us to say….
I understand that. But that doesn’t make them right. People need to see this is happening world wide. No other person should be able to control another
Sad to say since the beginning of time. Freedom has never been free. No where on this earth
It would take one day of bloodshed then glorious freedom.
@creedyfbaby those tanks and weapons need people for maintenance and production
We all kinda wanted this to happen. Was just a matter of time and patience
Saying no to proven western vaccines for COVID is so foolish by Chinese leaders and shows the ultimate in hubris
Peoples more worried about the iPhone delay than worker’s rights. All these students that support communism watching China?
@Rusty Mixer funny since we live in America and we are giving up our freedoms
@manictiger Amen! Because I see what is happening in other countries and we would never tolerate that.
@Black Sheep Comics I never have up mine. How are you giving up your freedom?
Pride and courage in the fight to bring democracy into being. Inspiration for the human spirit. Freedom for all. Safety and comfort for the protestor, each and every one.
Strongest military wins the game 💪
That journalist selina Wang in the video. She is so beautiful. I feel like fall in love with her
@Chemicalkinetics BINGO. that’s why i don’t feel sorry them. they are too stupid to realize that there is a bigger issue that they have to protest against. xi stepping won’t do jack sht.
@Christmas Iron egg creep detected
@CantoV12 tf you talking about man
Glad to see they are standing up for themselves. We are all human
Per our own recent corporate media narrative, they are all science deniers and deserve no freedom.
Great movement…This is not just against covid restrictions but against ruthless laws against human freedom…Humans are not farm animals to be kept under lock and key…Chinese people have been keeping this pressure inside them long before covid. They were to listen to whatever the CPC says and not a word can be uttered against it…
Exactly. Some on the right would have people believe these protests are like theirs to not wearing masks or taking vaccines. Nah, it’s to being continually locked down at home, constantly checked/tested, and held under restrictive curfews.
CCP is dope , xi is a moron
So basically, if you follow the rules you are locked down / imprisoned in a government camp for an indefinite time and if you dissent, you are also imprisoned in a government facility / prison for an indefinite time… Nothing to lose but your life being locked up…
That may very well be their mindset, no doubt.
Since their faces are already on Camera they have to see it through.
Good point tbh
BRAVO to these BRAVE People!!! WE are with YOU ALL!!! STAY STRONG!!!!
团结所有人。我们全心全意地与您站在一起。愿你们都能找到和平与正义以及更光明的明天。
From Iran to people of china, we hope for all the people to be free from tyrannies, we’re so glad to see you shout for your rights too, power to the people.
Voice from China: this is the first ever massive protests since 1989. It’s been 30 years, people finally, finally stood up. Please share this message to everyone you know, and stand with the people, stand with freedom.
Oof, the wumaos and bots, though.
WOW SIRRR VERY DANGEROUS !! 😠 😠BUT THIS WHY IM SO LUCKY LIVE IN SUPER INDIA 🤗🇮🇳 THE CLEANEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD , WE NEVER DO SCAM AND WE GIVE RESPECT TO ALL WOMEN THEY CAN WALK SAFELY ALONE AT NIGHT AND WE HAVE CLEAN FOOD AND TOILET EVERYWHERE 🇮🇳🤗🚽, I KNOW MANY POOR PEOPLE JEALOUS WITH SUPER RICH INDIA 🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🤗🇮🇳🤗
@Anonymous I dunno bro , i seen a bunch of protests in china , actually I had trouble avoiding them
我们人民才是主人我们的祖辈的牺牲，不是为了我们再带来一个独裁者或者机构。人生态度，我们不应该去担心政府政府应该要讨好忽然是没有枪，一切都白讲
I GUESS COVID SPREAD IS LESS IMPORTANT THEN TO PREVENT IT
PEOPLE ARE DUMB SHEEP
Thank you CNN, the analysis are 100% ON POINT. The western media and analysts used to be considered by people who were born and raised in China as “scratch the surface”, but now it’s clearly the West have gotten deeper understanding and realization towards the regime, I appreciate it, and please keep following up with it!
Cnn wanted America to be like this
@PzShockz spoken like an ignoramus
@Knyght Ryder back at you.. CNN wanted this for two years in US but now they pretend to stand with Chynna. CNN loves Communist China. Now they want covid reparations for the covid crimes they committed agains citizens.
Thanks for telling the world what is actually happening in my hometown. This is definitely the darkest moment I can feel in my life. Asking for support might be too much, but please don’t tease us. Some of us still desire freedom.
seriously, dude? You are copying, pasting the same comments under each video. You are free to express your opinions, feelings; As a Chinese, I hope you are sincere and have a more complete understanding of what’s happening in your “hometown”.
