Residents in urban villages of Haizhu District tried to push back the barriers水馬 set up by local governments. People are getting tired of the infamous zero-Corona policy. The death of a pregnant woman and her foetus, caused by denial of access to the hospital in time, sparked outrage. The "riot" was instigated mainly by workers from Hubei.
A few trolls in a small chat group, which I’m a member of, just now criticised it as an organised rebellion against the government, perhaps designed by external forces. It's a fifth-column operation; that's their conclusion. People with low IQs are easily deceived, and they learn to hypnotise themselves before the official propaganda comes out. I haven't forgotten that some chat group members work as policemen or develop surveillance systems.
