There were only about five people at the protest in the vid which was encouraging. That being said, how many other gatherings of five people get mainstream journalists covering them? Their ridiculousness affords them exposure.

People blindly believing anything's the problem. They realise they can't trust the establishment then use it as license to dismiss anything they disagree with. Somehow they never stop to ask themselves why everything that's "fake" just so happens to be everything they don't want to be true.

So basically the famous GK Chesterton quote again
When men choose not to believe in The Establishment, they not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything. "

Don't be naive; that's the message: that being against lockdowns (themselves a weird, unscientific, recent development) is fringe-thinking from kooks.

Well, it is. If it wasn't then many of those same people would be pro-lockdown as they just believe the opposite of whatever the establishment appears to. Also the protesters themselves said they were disappointed how few people there were. I guess they could all be paid actors though.

Meanwhile, in the real world, the doctor who first raised the alarm in Wuhan was threatened by the police and forced to sign a letter, promising not to "spread rumours" that would "disturb the social order": https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-51364382

And:

If the number of funeral urns distributed and the period over which cremation services operated at full capacity operation up to March 23, 2020, are considered, the estimate of the total deaths up to this date reaches 36,000, which is over tenfold the official figure of 2,524. The cumulative infection could potentially be over 700,000. These estimates do not account for the mobile crematories and are likely to be significant under-estimates.

But please, @mixed_biscuits, tell us more about Chinese propaganda that has exaggerated the scale of the virus. You could even tell us what the Chinese government might have gained by doing this, if you like.
