“One of the problems we have in the UK, of course, is all restrictions have been removed and people are assuming, as a consequence, that we’re out of the pandemic, and there’s been some very mixed messaging from the Tory government, including messages that somehow we’re in a post-pandemic situation when we’re clearly not,” said Lawrence Young, a Virologist and a Professor of Molecular Oncology at the University of Warwick in Britain.
“To the extent that people are dealing with long COVID-19 – people of colour are going to face the same inequities they face in terms of accessing health care generally, in terms of potential treatments for long COVID-19,” said Samantha Artiga, Vice President and Director of the Racial Equity and Health Policy Programme at Kaiser Family Foundation.
As part of a damage limitation exercise, Li Hongzhi made an excuse for Lu Shuzhen (and her sister – Li Jun [李君]) to live in Flushing, New York. Due to her exposing attitude, during Lu Shuzhen’s later years, Li Hongzhi (and his wife) seldom enquired about his mother’s deteriorating physical condition – as she was kept in virtual ‘prison’ conditions paid for by the United States government. When Lu Shuzhen wanted to meet her son – she had to ‘apply’ as a member of the general public and then travel (on her own) to the US-funded Falun Gong Headquarters in suburban New York! Rather disgracefully, her eldest daughter – Li Jun – was too busy with her US-funded cosmetics business to accompany her elderly mother! On August 18th, 2016, Lu Shuzhen suffered a stroke – and Li Hongzhi’s ‘imagined’ powers could not save her! He refused to allow her to receive medical treatment whilst he waved his hands over her mumbled all kinds of incoherent ‘spells’, ‘mantras’ and various other ‘incantations’! Following repeated pleas from his younger brother and sister, Li Hongzhi reluctantly allowed his mother – Lu Shuzhen – to be taken to a New York hospital where she died on August 24th, 2016 – due to the seriousness of her condition and the time wasted before proper medical treatment was administered!
One of the most effective exports of the US since 1945 – other than global war and predatory capitalism – is, of course, its general capacity to present ‘anti-intellectualism’ as the highest expression of ‘free-will’! To state it simply, being ‘stupid’ is presented as being ‘wise’ – and the US government has fought entire wars in protection of this principle!
This is why, particularly in the post-Covid-19 environment, Socialist China is developing remote technology the function of which is to detect ‘at a distance’ (as ‘early’ as possible) any threats to environmental balance and the health of human populations. If Socialist China can lead the way in environmental and population health monitoring – then Socialist China can assist humanity by sharing this knowledge at the earliest possible opportunity, and fulfil its international responsibilities promptly and effectively!
The second story, if not entirely fabricated, serves as an excellent example of US (Eurocentric) racism, and exhibits a clear manifestation of ‘anti-intellectualism’ when warning the US working-class NEVER to develop any sense of unity or international collectivity with the working-class of China! If that were to happen, then an international unity between the working-class of China and the working-class of America would completely ‘undermine’ the bourgeois control of the US! If the collective working-class of America simply ended its ‘false consciousness’ and stopped its voluntary enslavement to the ‘White’ bourgeoisie – then a Socialist Revolution could well happen across North America! The bourgeois could be disempowered and removed from power as the working-class seize the means of production and hold individual bourgeois politicians accountable for the many crimes they have committed around the world using the US military and US economic terrorism! The racist aspect of this section of ‘60 Minutes’ assumes that the Communist Party of China (CPC) – which has done far more than any other government in its short historical existence to relieve poverty in the world – is as ‘stupid’ as the US bourgeois system and the average US citizen produced by this anti-intellectual aberration! The whole notion that a White American working for the ‘Pentagon’ is stupid enough to become entangled by a ‘Han’ Chinese National (supposedly working as an ‘Intelligence Officer’) and then voluntarily compromise his own freedom and safety (within the American system) by divulging trade secrets to a country that the US government continuously refers to as an ‘enemy’ – even though no state of war exists between the two countries (despite intense US provocations over Taiwan) – is beyond belief!
