What's happening in China in regards to Covid lockdowns and restrictions seems to be on a whole other level even by taking into consideration that we don't start at the same level on a liberty and freedom scale. To me it's a mystery how they still put up with that nonsense and we're almost in 2023. Either their society is completely fragmented and divided, the grip of the Chinese government is so much tighter than I've imagined, or a very large majority has no issue with the current state of things.
