Will anything come out of this

  “Of Covid” needs some enormous scare quotes there.

Urumqi ones, yes already relaxed covid measures because frankly XJ lockdown past 3 months was stupid excessive and protest by actual commoners. CCP listens to these, even Uyghurs in XJ. These "rest of China" protests which are mostly coordinated student protesters - not commoners - many of whom admittly have very shitty dorm situations to be locked down in, probably not. I'd expect opposite, academic punishments, being expelled etc, especially Shanghai or other "libtard" schools. Like Shanghai protest being coordinated on telegram with RFA and Epoche Times reporters, those that get associated are going to be fucked. The TLDR is until their parents get on the streets, enmass, this will pass.

  Libtard schools?

    He might have meant instead, either the Nanjing, or Xi’an libtard schools. Two colleges known for the recent protests are the Xi’An Fine Arts School and also the Nanjing Media School. These two majors are coindicated with libtardation in the West are they not? The equivalent term in Chinese is, I think, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baizuo https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baizuo >The term has been referenced approvingly by American conservatives, including Tucker Carlson and Rod Dreher.[12]

I hope not. The alternative is going to be rubbish. It is like every single worker in a company think their CEO is shit, and they can take his job with comfort. In reality, it is only going to be worse. Xi's not great, also alternative is not great either. I just hope they can find a solution to current problem, and move on.

  Are the protests in any way related to what happened at the latest party convention?

    I don't have any inside knowledge unfortunately. The clip I watched was someone shouting about covid policy, but it may not be the theme for others. Foxconn workers happened a few days ago was mainly about compensation, of course covid policy can be one factor, but it was not correctly portrayed in media. I accidentally watched a clip on Chinese TikTok, this multi-city protests were announced vaguely by some random guy, so I believe this is at least organized. I would think there are supporters in government. My understanding is that politicians are always politicians, people may be protest something, politicians can support/oppose it for totally different reasons. So yes and no. I sense there is a lot going on. The government is now at a very awkward position.

If there will be another mysterious leak of virus, as it was in late 2019 when there was huge protests in Hong Kong, probably not.
