On Point: 2020's Bio-Economic World War: Communist China Lied; Millions of Human Beings Died


by Austin Bay
December 29, 2020

The Chinese Communist Party's COVID-19/Wuhan virus disinformation campaign (cover-up) rates as 2020's biggest Big Lie. By any measure, especially body count, the CCP committed 2020's most consequential and deadliest falsehood.

The following analysis summarizes decisions and actions by China's communist rulers from December 2019's final days through the end of January 2020, when U.S. President Donald Trump shut down air travel between mainland China and America.

(1) China's rulers -- or their frightened commissar and police apparatchiks -- brutalized and jailed the doctors and researchers who identified the disease as a threat to life and sought to warn other Chinese and medical authorities world-wide.

(2) As these brave MDs went to jail for doing a doctor's duty, the dictatorship initiated narrative warfare. Lower-level government mouths and controlled media denied the epidemic's outbreak.

(3) While spinning up The Big Lie, totalitarian China, which employs The Great Firewall of China to block internet access, allowed Chinese travelers (especially Chinese New Year vacationers) to spread the disease to exotic and non-exotic -- but always human biotic -- international locales.

Were these decisions and actions genocidal calculation or the usual dictatorial ineptitude? That isn't the critical killer question. Note to readers: I originally wrote "strategic issue" instead of "killer question" and then realized that "strategic issue" was a beltway euphemism.

The killer: Bio-economic attacks target everyone's life first and wallet second. So you survive the disease. Your country suffers a costly hit to food and health.

In early January, the CCP dictatorship confronted this strategic issue: a domestic epidemic that would damage the Chinese economy.

Fact: China's brutal dictatorship relies on economic success to pacify disgruntled citizens who know how to evade the Great Firewall and thus know the CCP ordered the 1989 Tiananmen massacre, which killed over 2,000 Chinese citizens. Economic success? Translation: material bribes like small electric cars and cellphones.

What did the dictatorship do? It decided to export the contagion.

The dictatorship's cruel analysis: The Wuhan virus pandemic imperiled the CCP's strategic plan to dominate the globe. Ipso facto, the CCP could not let China's economy alone suffer the Wuhan virus. Exporting the epidemic would slow the economies of China's free market and ideological competitors. Bonus: It might sow social discontent, particularly in the U.S., where freedom of movement is regarded as a right.

China's dictatorship concealed its callous decision to infect planet Earth. It quickly deployed a propaganda and narrative warfare campaign utilizing its worldwide political, economic, academic and intelligence agency assets.

China's communist dictatorship decided to wage a new form of bio-economic war on human beings worldwide.

Pay careful attention (for bribed critics and ChiCom trolls will not). I'm not arguing the virus was a bio-weapon in the military and medical definition of a biological attack on animals or plants. I am arguing the CCP leadership allowed the virus to spread beyond China so every other nation would suffer the disease's medical, economic and social consequences.

That decision amounts to waging bio-economic warfare on non-People's Republic of China human beings and their economies, from wealthy nations to wretchedly poor nations.

At the moment, the Wuhan virus savages sub-Saharan African nations. Over the last four weeks, U.N. agencies have issued warnings of starvation conditions in South Sudan. The epidemic inhibits food distribution in South Sudan. Thus, Chinese communist bio-economic warfare kills the poorest of the poor. Superficial media miss this story and miss the Wuhan virus-starvation connection.

Perhaps the miss isn't unintentional. Chinese-influenced organizations, particularly in academia and media, contributed to 2020's Big Lie. U.S Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., is clearly a CCP-corrupted politician.

As 2021 begins, the CCP cover-up will continue. A CCP court just sentenced citizen-journalist Zhang Zhan to prison for questioning the CCP's early 2020 falsehoods.

Zhan will spend four years in jail for telling the truth about communist China's Big Lie.
