    Anytime I see these posts I have to chuckle to myself. Living in China for 5 years myself, if you trust a single thing the CCP releases, you’re already screwed. Could this be true? Maybe, it’s possible. That’s the problem with lying about everything, and there’s no independent anything to verify what they’re actually coming up with, and it disclosed to anyone.

    I’m sure most countries fudge numbers to a degree, China just makes them up half the time, literally. For example, their official covid death amount is 120,000 or so, but it’s close to a million or more. Like I said, I’m sure countries fudge this number to some extent, but 10x is pure BS.
