“And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches toward Bethlehem to be born?” ― William Butler Yeats

Observe: Chinese factory workers at lunch eating with their heads down between cardboard separating panels.  Maybe the factory has a lot to spare because they make cardboard separating panels. Perhaps the Chinese factory makes a product that needs separating – glassware, plastic containers, artillery shells – who cares??

Not a surgical mask to be seen.

Nor a single pair of eye protectors or goggles.

Worth noting, as Coronavirus can be spread by casual eye contact: i.e. staring at somebody after they cough, sneeze or breathe.  Goggles are expensive in a Second world country like China. Only important managers, party apparatchiks, and Potemkin Sterilization Squads chasing “Super Spreaders” of the contagion would be supplied with such rare protective gear. Too expensive for a Chinese factory, whose main product seems to be manufacturing misery.

Of course other luckier Chinese office workers get to put their heads under plastic wrap.

Who does Xi & Co. think they’re kidding? With 60 million people or so under “quarantine” – the virus is totally out of control. The inept, corrupt and bloated Chinese government is burning bodies on the outskirts of Wuhan.

From Intelwave:

All that remains – is picking which Chinese government official to fire, shoot, or exile to a Muslim concentration camp. Frankly Xi’s Kakacracy, or in Chinese if you prefer 屎-acracy  — pronounced Shi-acracy — has lost control of everything but the narrative.

New estimates on contamination have risen to 60% to 80% of Humanity — which will give a whole new meaning to the phrase “Made in China.”

If humanity itself isn’t mortally wounded by this outbreak – the government of China will be. With Hong Kong already in revolt, how far behind can those millions on the march from Wuhan to Shanghai and Beijing be on the road to rebellion? The planet’s largest socialist Shi-acracy will sneeze itself out of existence. Once again “socialism” as a viable way of life will perish along with it, outside of a few precincts in Brentwood and Amsterdam Avenue. The petri-dishes of totalitarian hope.

When a mere 25% of the world has contracted this virus, who is going to give a bat’s ass about climate change, cow insemination and Hollywood Celebtards?  Will Greta Thunberg confront the carbon footprint of the widespread Greater China crematoria without a hazmat suit?

When Narco-Terrorist Mexico is heavily infected with illegal aliens crossing and crisscrossing our borders who will want to live in Sanctuary Cities or support the jackass politicians and policies that keep them like scummy ponds of farm-raised fish? Will our so woke Millennials band together for Live Aid – food, medicine, Hershey bars and prophylactics – to the continental basket cases of Africa and the subhuman state of North Korea?

Of course not.

Only faint echoes in the distance of a wailing Greta-the-Scold – “How dare they!  How dare they!” Knowing that rough beast has finally reached the open threshold of her Swedish door.
