Tucker Carlson Exposes the Shocking ‘Hell on Earth’ in Shanghai – Opinion

What’s going on in Shanghai, China as I write this may be one of the most disturbing stories in modern history. That’s not because great atrocities haven’t occurred before. No doubt, they have (and in China, no less), but it’s rare to have such a stark look behind the curtain of an authoritarian regime.

Due to the advancements in cell phone technology, and the presence of VPNs VPNs are now available. Videos from Shanghai will cause your skin to crawl.

The Chinese government is currently instituting a city-wide COVID-19 lockdown that is going further than anything we’ve seen before. The lockdown is causing people to be locked inside their homes and starved. Meanwhile, dogs and cats have been killed on the streets. Surprisingly though, these may not be the fortunate ones. Others are being beaten and dragged off by police to “quarantine” centers. The question of whether they’ll ever hear from them again remains.

Tucker Carlson dove into the story on Monday evening and put together the most thorough montage I’ve seen covering exactly what is transpiring. The CCP is truly a hell-raiser.

Some of these scenes could be taken from a dystopian novel. People are heard crying and refusing to move from their homes as the animals slowly succumb to starvation. And though it’s far less important overall, as someone who has multiple dogs and cats, it’s sickening to see Chinese police systematically murder animals that have had their owners “disappeared.” All the while, government drones are flying around telling people to resist their soul’s urge for freedom.

As I said, atrocities are nothing new, but we’ve never seen anything quite like this. It is the next generation of tyranny, something that was previously only possible in fiction. It is happening in real-time, and we all are witnessing it. Carlson shows one clip where a CNN journalist talks about the way that police use padlocks to lock down buildings. In another clip, we see a “quarantine” center where people are imprisoned, left with a single toilet and without basic necessities. What purpose? A smug pursuit of COVID Zero?

Yet, as striking as all this is, it’s important to remember that Chinese communists are not the only ones to promote these kinds of gross, dictatorial tactics. Leana Wen (ex-Planned Parenthood chief and CNN talk head) actually supported not allowing people unvaccinated to go outside their homes last fall. Joe Biden tried to force the government into removing unvaccinated people from their jobs. It’s a very short walk from those actions to padlocking people in their apartments.

So while I’m absolutely disgusted by what the Chinese are doing, we shouldn’t forget that a lot of mainstream figures right here in the United States wanted the same thing. They just wanted it with a slightly more gentle touch, and if it weren’t for states like Florida standing up and saying no, who knows how far things would have gone. COVID-zero was a mainstream goal of the Biden administration until it wasn’t.

Still, the most pressing matter at this moment remains what’s happening in China. Can the West ever get its act together and take economic penalties from communists who are committing such rabid violations of human rights? I wouldn’t count on it. Only a few short days ago Dr. Anthony Fauci refused even to critique the Chinese response. The current administration is proving that weak leadership can lead to chaos in the world. It is possible to expect worsening.
