Famine, wars, and disease are consequences of man turning away from God. (God is a spirit of love.)

Video found in this thread, where there are also translations of what was spoken in Chinese:

This was taken from the Chinese web. A few notes:

1) Chinese media interviewed him, his daughter (?) and employer

  • They testified the old dude just had lunch and had too much to drink/was drunk

  • This could be Chinese media promoting disinformation to cover the government's tracks

  • However, the Chinese (especially the older generation) do have a habit of drinking baijiu (~40-50% alcohol content) during lunch:

https://www.chinaeducationaltours.com/guide/culture-baijiu-etiquette.htm

Geographically, people in north China (like Beijing, Xi’an, Harbin) like baijiu of high alcohol level and they drink more due to the cold weather. On the other hand, people in south China (like Guilin, Guangzhou, Shanghai) enjoy the low alcohol level of baijiu and less is drunk.

Don't Drink Baijiu at Lunch - Sanya (China)

^ This guy says not to drink baijiu during lunch cause the Chinese usually pressure you to drink until you get completely fucked up

2) The old dude was an employee for an essential job, otherwise he wouldn't be able to walk around outside in a middle of a severe lockdown

  • Factories in China always provides food and living quarters for their employees. The conditions and food tend to suck, but you'll have food and a roof over your head

Case in point:

^ The second video is a critical documentary of China's factories. Starting from the 24:00 mark shows the factory's cafeteria.

3) Notice the comments from users on the Chinese website are really critical, repetitive and trying to convince people that the dude was really starving

  • Criticism against the government is fairly common in Chinese social media, but much less so in real life, which is weird because they can track you online but are unable to track your conversations in real life

  • The Chinese web has a lot of astroturfs from Japan, Taiwan, the US and UK

  • Douban was worse than the above platform (Weibo). The CCP cracked down on it recently this year:

https://www.scmp.com/tech/policy/article/3170575/china-tech-crackdown-internet-watchdog-visits-social-media-firm-douban

  • This seems to heavily contradict with the notion that criticism isn't allowed. In reality, criticism is allowed, but they try to crack down on 1) movements that recruit multiple ppl to go against the government (sedition), 2) CIA-backed operations, 3) rumors that lead to social unrest. This system, of course, can be abused by the ones controlling the internet. But the way they operate and the way they're portrayed to people by globalist media isn't exactly the same, the media promotes disinformation.

4) Disinformation from government astroturfs usually don't provide both sides of the story (even if the other side might be wrong). They also don't provide context and instead, like to paint a false narratives

  • Just examine the OP's post history. His job is to sell you how shitty China is and promote disinformation on them. China may be a shithole for all means and purposes, but disinformation is disinformation.

  • Whenever I see information on globalist adversaries (Russia, China, Iran, etc.), I always tend to look for the other side of the story and/or do a detailed dig into it myself. Then make a judgement based on how strong the evidence is.

So you are a Beijing bot then.

Thanks for confirming.
