I hate that nearly anyone is able to control a multi-ton death machine after a few easy tests. Cars should be treated like the weapons they are.

what fucking pathetic reporting from AP.

searches for what happened were heavily censored for users behind China’s Great Firewall.

Outside of the controls, however, videos circulated on the social media platform X.

In one, shared by news blogger and dissident Li Ying, a woman says “my foot is broken.”

Chinese authorities appeared to be tightly controlling information about the incident. Internet censors tend to take extra care to scrub social media ahead of and during major events, such as the aviation exhibition or the annual meeting of the National People’s Congress

For almost 24 hours after the attack, it was unclear what the death or injury toll was. On Tuesday morning, a search on the Chinese social media platform Weibo for the sports center turned up just a few posts, with only a couple referring to the fact something had happened, without pictures or details. Articles by Chinese media from Monday night about the incident were taken down.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping called for the “strict” punishment of the perpetrator according to law, in a statement Tuesday evening.

Wu Huizhong, take a fucking break from being a supreme gusano to have any solidarity at all with the fucking victims.

How much do you want to bet they were searching Chinese internet using English search terms?
