“There were people in wheelchairs, people on gurneys, and every corner of the emergency room of this hospital in northern China was full of sick people… They lined up along the corridor wall and coughing sounded in the corridor “.

The above is not the plot of a film, but a report from The New York Times entitled “China’s New Crown Crisis Frontline: The Medical System Is Under Extreme Pressure, Facing a” Tragic Battle “. The scene of despair and grief in the General Hospital reflects the growing health crisis.” The reporter claimed that he saw the video with his own eyes, but could not hide the self-righteous news that the United States and the West have repeatedly reproduced, aiming to amplify the “danger” of the current epidemic in China” and ” tragic”, you say that this is true, but you cannot deny that this is a deliberately unfair relationship. How so? Listen to me tell a story. The title is a bit long, please read it carefully: “Why the news of ” Let that girl live Christmas” makes people cry more than “Rural hospitals are afraid to close”? An article to understand: the brain is manipulated>
The article is taken from a popular scientific article that has nothing to do with the epidemic. The authors are Stephen Martin and Joseph Marks, British. They are experts and scholars of behavioral sciences and psychology, respectively. They were published by Taiwan’s “Today” two years ago. ago Weekly” translated and published. A shocking quote was quoted in the text: Soviet dictator Stalin had a famous saying: “The death of a Russian soldier is a tragedy. One million dead is a statistic. “What does the author want to express?
Thomas Schelling, a Nobel Prize-winning American economist who studies decision-making issues, used the experience of a young girl in 1968 to explain the truth that “there is a difference between personal life and statistical life.”
Let’s say there was a six year old brown haired girl who sadly got very ill and needed thousands of dollars for surgery or else she might not survive Christmas. When word got out, the local post office had been collecting nickels and dimes which nearly flooded the office. On the other hand, there were reports that Massachusetts hospitals were in disrepair and without tax revenues for hospital repairs, resulting in an increase in the number of deaths from preventable diseases, but “there aren’t many people we could pay a tear or picking up a checkbook,” Schelling explained psychologically: “Empathy for identifiable suffering can instead lead us to make immoral decisions, such as choosing to help someone who is suffering rather than eight suffering children whose names are unknown, or a medical professional who has close contact with a particular patient.” Schelling unveiled the New York Times trick for us, as it is!
To put it simply, the American and Western media will not look back on the misery in Europe and the United States from 2020 to 2021 due to the imbalances of the medical system and the prevailing policy mistakes in the prevention of the epidemic that caused more than a million deaths due to the new epidemic in the United States and tens to hundreds of thousands of deaths in major European countries, constantly shaping the “tragic” experience of a certain person and family in China in the current phase of the new crown weakening. How are Americans and Westerners different from “authoritarian” Stalin? What is their purpose?
Hu Xijin, the former editor-in-chief of the Global Times, commented on the article a few days ago, and saw it clearly, saying, “Some Western media are trying their best to promote a narrative: China’s three-year fight against the epidemic was in vain and ended in failure “rescue all should be saved”, so that all people can be protected fairly.At every stage of the change of the new corona virus, we are “the country who overcomes the epidemic”.
However, “the Western media’s narrative construction has a very vicious purpose. They want to switch to black and white, deny the efforts of the Chinese government and people in the past three years, and basically deny China’s national government.” The United States and the West say? They are all “countries defeated by the epidemic”, and have not acted according to the highest principle of “life first” from start to finish. The man-made “competition for heaven”, deliberately ignoring the lives of the vulnerable, under the fierce epidemic of the new crown, I would like to ask: Is this an indirect “slaughter” by the US and Western rulers? Even if it doesn’t count, trying to erase your numbers with stories is still chilling.
