If you were online during January 2020 you likely saw the barrage of video clips that were supposedly coming out of China depicting ghastly “Coronavirus” scenes.

Most of those videos have been quietly wiped off the internet, but back in January and February those grisly videos were a viral sensation and they scared the sense out of Americans.

The videos captured supposed Coronavirus victims in various stages of pandemic horror. Some showed people foaming at the mouth and collapsing in the streets, while others featured ominous government officials wearing Hazmat suits, hovering over lifeless bodies struck down from the virus.

It was a virtual buffet of fear-porn, and Americans couldn’t get enough of it.

Personally, I saw hundreds of those videos. The comments from people sharing the clips would range from sarcastic “Just the flu” type stuff — intended to mock and shame anyone who tried to downplay the seriousness of the virus — to wild conspiracy theories claiming Coronavirus caused brain swelling, spontaneous convulsions, and instant death.

It was some of the most powerful video propaganda I’ve ever witnessed.

In all the videos, i was not as disturbed by the folks falling out as much as observing how the CCP dealt with people. Even if exaggerated and magnifying the illness, the way people are handled and controlled is very real.

TBH, this is the one i find the most chilling. These mickeyfickeys play for keeps.

May be my imagination but a quiet kek at 1:47. sounds like he ground the starter. All hyped up i reckon. yeah, im easily entertained. You screw up in training i am sure that you get soundly thumped. IRL, any fail is dealt with very harshly i am sure.

Chinese are not as dangerous as armed Americans pissed off at their corrupt government.

Absolutely well said. One of the inherent weakness in Communist military structures is that everyone is terrified to show any initiative. They wait for orders from the highest up, in order to avoid making any mistakes. Playing it safe, they are paralyzed until go ahead from Party higher ups. The sheer mass of numbers is what they have as some sort of advantage. But no independent thinking. This is how their whole system is. Bureaucratic juggernaut, rolls over and crushes any internal dissent. Likely not fleet of foot however. Response to fluidity of the battlefield prolly not their strong suit. And when we follow the heritage of our forbears, well, likely they will get dealt with. Notice that i am not saying this about our present "woke" military. We will fight like those who have nothing left to lose, cause we were not left alone. Against all enemies foreign and domestic. Hypothetically, of course. ; )
