> Whatever China says must ALWAYS be a lie,

You are talking about the regime that fired the previous official in charge of the chinese government's response to it's covid19 outbreak for aledgedly falsifying information, and afterwards inexplicably decided to officially leave out from their covid19 infection statistics any patient who was confirmed to carry the virus but subjectively wasn't experiencing major symptoms.

Meanwhile, the Chinese government's officials claim with a straight face that there are no new covid19 cases in China, and ridiculously stating that any new case happens to be foreigners importing an infection caught outside of China.

The reason why people think the Chinese governmemt is lying is because the Chinese government is patently and shamelesly lying.

Or you are just too deep in your personal bias. Even if you don't trust the numbers at the face value, there are external things you can observe. Provincial movement bans are lifted, factories are returning to work, restaurants are opening again. No government, authoritarian or not, would make that call if the cases are not under control.

I could provide citations and sources and support for everything I pointed out.

But I noticed you are posting using an account created recently which is being used to brigade threads all over HN that point out anything less than totally positive involving China's ruling regime.

Citations that point to restaurants opening being faked? Factory opening being faked? Travel ban lifted being faked? Please do.

I'm Chinese, I realize Chinese government's flaws, but I also recognize its merits. I hope you can accept that people with different opinions than you are not just trolls
