Ah, the "China is exactly like 1979 Poland" gambit. https://twitter.com/fullhomosexual/status/132880415416539136... The downfall of the US is that we're SO CERTAIN that our way is the only right and good way, and it gives us blind spots.

Where does it say that?

probably not. users can flag anything they want for any reason.
but dang unflags when it's not flagged for good reasons. And I would think he's awake now.
I don't think he does that very often, since he doesn't know the reasons. You could also try contact him directly instead of expecting him to see a random comment you left.

are you saying that dang doesn't have an alert that is triggered when a match of \bdang\b is found?

While I share your skepticism, there doesn't seem to be much room for cover-up here (though I'm sure the initial outbreak was significantly under-counted). My understanding is that restrictions are pretty minimal apart from strict control of travelers. So either there is basically no community spread or it's likely to be rampant - and then the hospitals would be overflowing like they are in the US, which is much much…
Why do you graciously accept the numbers from the CCP while ignoring any evidence towards a cover-up? Do you actually believe the CCP has the pandemic under control? The amount of propaganda spread by the CCP trough their state controlled media is insane and wholly inaccurate. The CCP also conveniently put the blame squarely at foreign nationals bringing the virus over every single time. as if there are no cases of c…
I'm not accepting the numbers. I'm accepting the "hospitals are not overrun" observation, which is very hard to cover-up. I happen to know someone working in a Beijing hospital and it is not overrun. How else would you explain that except to say that there is minimal community transmission? The only other possibility is a country-wide refusal to hospitalize patients, which seems equally difficult to cover-up. Otherwise the cover-up could only ever be briefly temporary until the spread was rampant again.

as far as I know he doesn't. The site guidelines even explicitly ask to email.

It is flagged because people like me object to amplifying this propaganda from the mouthpiece of the CCP.
