Videos shared on social media earlier this week appeared to show one particularly large demonstration involving thousands of people in #Zhengzhou, wearing masks and facing rows of #police officers wearing protective suits and holding riot shields. Police kicked and hit a protester with clubs after the person grabbed hold of a metal pole that was being used to strike him. Witnesses also said that employees at the iPhone factory were beaten and detained amid the protests.

Woman’s #diary goes viral as #lockdown in #China forces her to stay with #blindDate

#Wang went for dinner on Sunday at her blind date’s residence in the central Chinese city of #Zhengzhou, where a recent #outbreak of #Covid cases sent thousands into #quarantine in parts of the city. As she was finishing her meal, the area was put under lockdown.

She was unable to leave her date’s house as result, she told the Shanghai-based news outlet the Paper this week, saying she had gone to the city for a week-long trip to meet potential suitors from the southern province of Guangdong.

Wang quickly shared the bizarre experience with friends on social media. “I’m getting old now, my family introduced me to 10 matches … The fifth date wanted to show off his cooking skills and invited me over to his house for dinner,” said Wang in one of the videos.

So if you ever see protesters claiming the #security actions against Covid are a #tyranny, tell them what can happen in a real #autocracy.
