[Epoch Times, July 31, 2021]Press: When the epidemic broke out in Wuhan last year, Hubei people became street rats across China, being discriminated against and expelled everywhere. I don’t want this scene to happen again now! After the recent outbreak of the epidemic in Nanjing, Nanjing people have also become street rats across China, being discriminated against and driven everywhere. The following article posted by an unknown author on the WeChat public account “Bajie Hot Wen” vividly records this tragedy and the author’s thoughts. The author sighed in the article: “In a government-led anti-epidemic war against the epidemic, every outbreak of the epidemic is a group of sad people, a group of people who have been discriminated against, and a group of people who resent. The battle has been completely won, and what is left is nothing but broken rivers and mountains.” In order to facilitate readers’ reading, the editor edited the original text.
A Nanjing native who I respect very much. He has taught at Nanjing University for many years and has now moved to Zhejiang University. Mr. Du Junfei posted an article in his official account “Du Class” last night, “Send the Stories to the Epidemic Area” people”.
One of the paragraphs is written like this: discussing academic issues in a group, everyone talks about it, and can’t calm down for a minute. I said in a deep voice, “I just came from Nanjing.” In an instant, everyone was silent. This scene is very much like Moses stretched his stick into the water and separated the Red Sea.
Teacher Du is a wise and humorous person. It is very happy to chat with him. But this joke is not very happy.
This metaphor is very strange. In the “Bible” story, Moses took the Israelites out of Egypt to find the “place of honey and milk” that God had promised them, which is their hometown Israel. So Moses took the Israelites all the way to find his home.
But things are reversed. For Nanjing people, even though Nanjing is not their “place where honey and milk flow”, it is their warm home and hometown. But many of them cannot go back. Egypt can’t get out of everywhere.
Because the codes in their phones have all become yellow codes. They come from an epidemic area. Although they were still green when they left Nanjing, even though they had a nucleic acid certificate and they had every means to prove that they were a healthy Nanjing citizen, they still could not go back to their “Israel”.
Saw a Douyin video. A Nanjing native with a Su-A license planned a perfect trip to the grassland. When he arrived in Aershan, Inner Mongolia, everything was in vain. The scenic spot was not allowed to enter, and the hotel was not allowed to live in. He took his family with him and he could only return. He has walked 1,400 kilometers on the 2400 kilometers road, but no hotel is willing to accept them. They can only sleep in the car with the whole family and rush all the way.
The problem is that even Nanjing people have to discriminate against Nanjing people. In a screenshot of WeChat Moments, a Nanjing girl wears a yellow code. Even if she has a severe thoracic vertebral burst fracture, no hospital is willing to accept her.
I seem to see Wuhan people in 2020. In the movie “The Matrix”, Keanu Reeves saw a black cat because of a system error in the mother’s body, and he said: Déjà vu.
Seems familiar. system error.
From February 2020 to today, the epidemic has passed for one and a half years. The penetration rate of nucleic acid testing and vaccination has been very high. I think that the fear of the new crown epidemic has passed, and people have learned to deal with it. Getting along with the epidemic, at least, when facing the epidemic, there will be no more fear, panic, and hysteria.
But nothing has changed.
The nationwide witch-hunting of Wuhan people has become the witch-hunting of Nanjing people today. Nothing has changed.
Are all Nanjing people infected with the new crown virus? Has Nanjing become a city of zombies? Have all the people of Nanjing been infected with the mutant poison?
It seems not yet. As of 24:00 on July 26, there were only 112 cases; there were only 125 cases nationwide.
So why did Nanjing people become rats crossing the street, being discriminated against and driven away everywhere?
Because of fear, because of overcorrected local universal epidemic prevention, because of distorted local policies and public psychology. It is no different from last year’s treatment of Wuhan people.
Under the raging propaganda and fear of the epidemic, all localities have always dealt with the epidemic more severely. They would rather kill a thousand by mistake than miss one. And all the grassroots, down to the people, are completely distorted in a state of fear. There is only the epidemic in his eyes, and there is no humanity in his heart.
I don’t know how and how the trapped Nanjing people will get through such a difficult situation. In modern society, death from starvation and freezing is probably not possible. But when they were exhausted, broke through all kinds of hardships and obstacles, and went back to Nanjing with hunger, they probably all carried resentment and curses towards those places they fled from.
In a government-led anti-epidemic war against the epidemic, every outbreak of the epidemic is a group of sad people, a group of people who have been discriminated against, and a group of people who resent. Even if we finally win the battle completely, what remains is nothing but a broken river and mountains.
