A social media account operated by the Chinese Communist Party mocked the humanitarian catastrophe brought on by the surge in the number of COVID-19 cases gripping its neighbor and rival, India.
The account, which is run by the official Chinese law enforcement agency, the Communist Party’s Central Political and Legal Affairs commission, posted the controversial message on Weibo, which is China’s version of Twitter.
The post included two images juxtaposed with one another. One photo shows an image of a rocket launch in China while the other shows dead bodies being cremated in India.
‘Lighting a fire in China VS lighting a fire in India,’ the post read.

WNU Editor: Over the years I have lost count on how many times my Chinese friends and contacts asked me this question .... why do people outside of China "hate" their country. I always say it is not the people that this animosity is directed at. It is at the Chinese government and its policies.
But this official government tweet is not going to help the discussion, and it illustrates (sadly) why this anti-Chinese animosity is so pervasive in Asia.
On a brighter note. They at least deleted this Weibo post.

The chinese people don't sabotage government so go to hell people fight it government now
Nothing about WSJ to condemn. It is true.
Around 2011 people wondered why the US was as strong as it was given the debt and deficit. A likely explanation was that while Yes the US sucked ass, the other economies in Europe, Russia and China sucked ass worse. Not much of an endorsement for the USA.
The happy event for China is that Biden and the person holding his leash are prepared to spend 4 trillion of more than the US government collect in revenue in a year. So China could win in much the same fashion that a person does not have to outrun a bear. He just has to be faster than the other guy.
If Chinee companies are so good why, do the police stop at a person's house, when their job is to conduct due diligence of Chinese companies? Wacha hiding.
Tell Xo hello.
The world will be sorry if I don't sabotage government
