A NEW TREND OF SURVIVALIST PREPARATION AMONG CHINESE URBANITES IN THE WAKE OF WUHAN, XI'AN, AND SHANGHAI LOCKDOWN FIASCOS:
Over 98% of Chinese citizens own smartphones and browse the Internet on a regular basis. When Wuhan first happened, many Chinese urbanites thought that it was an "isolated incident". That the government may have "miscalculated", and it "won't happen again". However, when Xi'an and now Shanghai has fallen prey to the CCP's unwavering and failure ridden 'Zero COVID' initiatives, many citizens all over China has come to the realization that this government will never learn from it's mistakes and it does not have the peoples' welfare in mind. ONLY WE CAN SAVE OURSELVES has now become the latest social media trend in cities all across China.
Many Chinese bloggers have set up pages teaching crash courses in basic urban survivalism, how to stockpile, rotate, and ensure freshness among stocks of dried and canned food items. Some even more pragmatic survivalism coaches are hosting workshops on how to evade authorities when one must break lockdown curfews in order to procure lifesaving medical supplies. And it can be assumed that even more radical procedures on how to deal with government enforcers also being shared, even though state media may have this under heavy scrutiny. In cities all over China, dried noodles, grains, flour, dehydrated emergency rations, emergency medicines, canned seasonings, and sanitary supplies are flying off the shelves and record numbers of people have started following "survivalist blogs". Taking charge of their own predicaments. Realizing that blind trust of the state has led to the humanitarian disasters at Xi'an and Shanghai.
In Guangzhou, authorities have expressed frustration that people would "rather listen to fringe broadcasters on social media now than the state's advice", but the trend is on a skyrocketing path. Millions of citizens are preparing long term survival caches and forming mutual aid arrangements with their neighbors, and forging 'micro-governments' within their communities to look out for elderly, frail, and young members if a lockdown or another crisis strikes. There is no doubt that these authorities have realized that people have stopped trusting them, and their future success in retaining power is being cut off right in front of them.
Reports of food shortages in the country’s commercial capital have prompted a flurry of interest in what essentials to hoard.
