Protesters have taken to the streets across China after years of the government's zero-Covid policy have left citizens feeling desperate. CNN's selinawangtv reports from China.

In a rare show of anger at the Chinese Communist Party, thousands of protesters have amassed in the streets of more than a dozen Chinese cities in recent days calling for an end to strict Covid lockdown measures and political freedoms. It is one of the top stories — if not the top story — for major news organizations around the world.

“The lack of media coverage, due to Xi’s control, restricts the spread of information and helps, to some degree, prevent the protests from proliferating in an unbridled fashion,” Philip Hsu, a visiting fellow at Brookings and director of the Center for China Studies at National Taiwan University, said Monday. Hsu left open the possibility that some of the coverage decisions could be due to self-censorship.

selinawangtv One bullet or one bullet supposedly from the crowd and suddenly one of the leaders in the party is dead.....every single person protesting will be shot anf killed no matter if its 50,000 or a million..one bullet one death....camps will overflow and mass graves dug!

selinawangtv What I want to know is, why is the communist CNN reporting this? What manipulation are you trying to contrive now? You haven't written an honest report in what used to be called the news, in years. So why this story? Why now? What's in it for you and your communist paymasters?

selinawangtv this was CNN's wetdream a few year ago.. now you're against it... such hypocrite

selinawangtv My deepest respect for the brave people in China who fight for freedom and basic human rights.Praying for their safety

selinawangtv Awesome to see. Godspeed!

selinawangtv Yes, we should stand together to resist ridiculous policies made by ccp and Fiji ping

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv That’s dangerous ☝🏻

selinawangtv Thank goodness the blindfold has finally been taken off and the Chinese people are realizing they’ve been suppressed for ages!

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv I bet they just want hair cuts 😤

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv Shame on you CNN when the maniacal governor Newsom was chaining off the parking lots at state parks and beaches,and having surfers arrested in the water, you were cheering in support!

selinawangtv Remember, this is what the US state also wanted by prolonging lockdowns.

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv I smell the true reason why the world was shut down since early 2020, and it smells like the stench of the CIA.

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv This is very irresponsible of CNN to promote these anti-science protestors. One country is doing the lockdown right and you don’t want that country to succeed? Those ten people that died - imagine how much worse it would be if the got COVID. Very irresponsible by CNN.

selinawangtv It is about time ,Go people ,

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv Do you think you will look into how Apple is helping Xi oppress?

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv If only they had a second amendment

selinawangtv Isn’t it ironic to see CNN reporting on protests in China over the same idiocy they cheerled here ?

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv Lockdowns that CNN praised.

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv I don’t remember sympathy from u guys when we protested here….

jeffreyatucker selinawangtv

selinawangtv Can't blame them. It's insane

selinawangtv What Chinese people asking is very reasonable, go with rest of the world Covid policy.

selinawangtv why china government still remain zero Covid policy? It has been revealed that Chinese companies that provide Covid test and medical equipments have something to do with it that offering bribe to the government in able to do so..

selinawangtv All of these guys are all students. It seems that they could not stand for the real people. Maybe they can only stand for the opinion of America which wants to bring chaos to China. Because every demonstrator can get 150$ from its America delegates. what a low sneaky trick.😅🤪

selinawangtv If Americans were living in China, the current liberals would be in full support of Xi, they have no right to try and take the high ground now. Covid in the US has shown this to be self evident. Liberals are no better than Xi and the communist party.

selinawangtv Going back a year ago when people were questioning the vaccine, masks, lockdowns, etc here in the US and vilified for it. How far were we really from this?

selinawangtv Didn't think I'd see this on CNN but thanks kind of made my day.

selinawangtv Insurrection?

selinawangtv Nine years and counting..

selinawangtv Isn’t this against your agenda? I mean the elite agenda, cnn is just their cuckold puppets.

selinawangtv Freedom can only be suppressed for so long. Then it emerges.

selinawangtv This morning (Nev 28), the Islamic Republic executed seven people in the central prison in Balochistan in one hour. They are massacring Iranian people in secret. A great crime is going on, be the voice of the people of Iran MahsaAmini
