It's because only these accounts shows different kind of news from china, I had heard of protests but after long I didn't see any News on this forum until I posted that twitter post, similarly I don't see from Chinese social media too . It's almost impossible to get bad this kind of news from pro china sources.
Just because "news" is different doesn't make it trustworthy or true. Need I remind you that the reason there is a new rule for only posting news from KNOWN and PROVEN sources is because all these posts from these CIA bots wastes everyone's time for refuting.

There is also the rule for posting your thoughts on photos and news that you post. This rule is not new, been around for 15 years actually, just not enforced often. The reason for it is so people don't shit post CIA bots and have to justify why they believe CIA bots are right, ie prove to everyone they are ignorant.

Bad news and slander are different things. Accurately covered protests with correctly reported cause and effect are fine. You are posting 10 second vids of people being subdued on the ground going, "What's going on!!?? Why the CCP killing people? I heard people starved to death, beaten, shot dead, organ-harvested inside! The is brutal CCP COVID Zero draconian oppression!" When in fact, an idiot tried to charge a barricade so the cops put him on the ground and book & released him. Or sometimes, it's actually a drunk woman being removed from a traffic intersection that the shill accounts made look like the CCP abducted her for no reason.

You wanna cover protests in China? Cover them. Give reliable sources noting where and when it happened, what sparked the protest and how the Chinese authorities reacted. Not 5 second clips of the Chinese cops beating on someone that should have been 10 second clips showing the guy run up with a knife first peppered with CIA rumors of what "could" have also been happening.

There is a rule on commentary required for posting Twitter feeds no? And quality of twitter needs to be decent instead of random CIA bots.
I'm not a fan of cnn, but they reported it:

I do want to note that they may not be police. They could be security personal hired by Foxconn to keep the workers in the factory.

Not a good look. Factory workers, such as those providing cheap labour in Foxconn facilities are ultimately responsible for China's rise. They deserve a better execution of covid policies and fair compensation. I hope the government steps in.
Interestingly enough, the government has been supportive of the workers in Zhengzhou at the very least from what I seen on Chinese social media. If China still needed Foxconn, they would have stepped in and dealt it swiftly like what India did:

It looks like I spoke too soon. Those people in white suits most likely are local police:
They aren't the People's Armed Police though, which means the central government is just standing on the sidelines for now.

Also, at the same time, it seems that Foxconn screwed over the newly hired workers by not paying them the bonuses promised in their job ads:

I am no fan of zero covid but data don't lie. 12000 people died on Nov 11 in the US. Total 90000 people died since the Shanghai lockdown began. If dynamically isolating less than 0.001% people while 99.999% are working and loving normally prevents 2mil deaths. Then so be it until a real cure is found. I am living in Shanghai btw and i went through the Shanghai 2.5 month lockdown but i also went through 2 years of covid free China while the world was imploding
