Die Proteste gegen die strikte Covid-Politik erfassen zunehmend auch kleinere Städte. Die Regierung in Peking hingegen schweigt. Ihr Ziel: Mit noch mehr Zensuraufwand soll ein Flächenbrand verhindert werden. Ob jemand überhaupt von den Protesten gehört hat, ist auch eine Frage der sozialen Herkunft.

The protests against the strict Covid policy have begun to spread to smaller cities. The government in Beijing, on the other hand, remains silent. Its goal is to prevent large-scale protests by increasing censorship efforts. Whether someone has even heard of the protests is also a question of social background.

As the world gets ready for Christmas, protests have erupted across China. The protests were sparked by a tragic fire in Urumqi, which killed ten people, and anger over the country’s restrictive Zero-COVID policy. While protest is more common in China than people think, the last two days have seen a character of dissent not seen in China since 1989.
