betrayal

Can't speak for the other countries, but after seeing what communism did in my country and what the descendants of these people are doing now how can you trust the government?
I'm not talking about any super secret world domination (lol, insert Poland stronk meme), but all (but one) parties since 1989 are built on lies and skeletons in closets and they will do anything to remain in power, so lies about the severity (both medically, socially and economically) of this pandemic are given.
Who exactly within China would feel safe enough to speak out on the record, as you're suggesting? Whistleblowers in China tend to have a very bleak life expectancy.
I'm not saying that China is always transparent. Of course, China can be criticised for many things, and I do not believe that the figures for the coronavirus are correct. But that is not what this is about. It is about the extreme exaggerations (not only about China).
Also this is not about whistleblowers.There are millions of foreigners living in China who are free to move around and report what they want and there are plenty of ways to be anonymous on the internet. China is constantly being criticized, mostly by its own citizens. I have the feeling that some people confuse other cultures and lifestyles, which differ from their own, with constant oppression.
