Daily Mail - Tanks on the streets spark fears of new Tiananmen Square as Chinese Communists flood cities with police to end unprecedented protests sparked by disastrous zero-Covid policy.
Xi's Communist Party officials have ramped up their crackdown on demonstrators, with police officers seen wrestling with protesters before dragging them away.
Dramatic video shows a woman screaming as she is arrested by six police officers and dragged away from a main square in Hangzhou, as Chinese officials sought to crack down on protesters in the city.
A man is seen trying to stop the police from arresting the woman by shouting at them, but two officials were seen running at the protester and screaming at him to get back.
Footage also shows a huge crowd of protesters trying to stop a group of police officers from arresting two men in Hangzhou. But the officers were seen wrestling with the protesters and dragging the two demonstrators away while holding the scruff of their collars.

The campaign to quash the protests on multiple fronts draws on the party’s decades-old toolkit of repression and surveillance, which Mr. Xi has upgraded in pursuit of unshakable dominance.

Fortunately, in the West we have brave and principled politicians, such as Justin Trudeau, who stick up for the Chinese people’s right to protest and call out police brutality.

JT saying that protesting for changes in public policy was 'worrisome' had me spiting out my coffee. Seems like he supports protests everywhere but Ottawa. Remember when he knelt during BLM protests?

Governments around the world that could never agree on anything are now all suddenly on the same page: waging war on their own citizens.
