I know people are saying Shanghai is a shitshow because of the local government. But do you think it might have been a bad idea in general to deploy such a harsh policy in the country? (asking in good faith as someone who would not mentally survive such long lockdowns)
Based policys. China is just playing the long term game, millions would haved died if china did not impose the zero covid policy. And it was worth it, look at the US, dozens, and even hundreds of thousands are getting contaminated and killed by the virus every day, and the goverment literaly cant do shit.
