On Saturday (May 1), China Chang’an.com, the official microblog of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s Political and Legal Affairs Commission’s news website, posted a composite picture comparing the ignition of a rocket by the Communist Party of China to that of a cremated corpse in India, thus mocking the seriousness of the epidemic in India. This has sparked outrage among netizens in mainland China and overseas, who denounced it as “inhumane.
In a composite image by China Chang’an.com, on the left is the scene of a Chinese Communist Party rocket being set on fire, while on the right is a scene of Indian workers in protective clothing burning the bodies of people who died of Wuhan pneumonia. The blog post is captioned “China ignites vs India ignites” and has the hashtag “More than 400,000 new cases diagnosed in India in a single day”.
The Apple Daily wrote that such a cold-hearted post is a counter-attack by the Chinese Communist Party in the face of Sino-Indian tensions, and is in line with China’s usual “war wolf” style.
In the past, such posts would attract a large number of pinkies to follow them, creating a deeply “patriotic” public opinion. But this time, the Central Committee of Political and Legal Affairs kicked the iron plate. Although there are still pinkie messages of support, but not into the climate, but was drowned by a cursing voice.
Some people said, “I go! The official government so talk?” “Can Xuanfa not always engage in some villainous acts, look at the feeling of real shame.” “The comparison chart posted by China Chang’an.com is inhuman, humiliating and underhanded.”
Some people also said, “I know that some people have a very low bottom line, but never thought it could be so low, low enough to openly mock the passing of life, low enough to lose their conscience but also proud of it.” “Neighbors have a funeral, pounding does not phase; Lane has a funeral, not Lane song.” “China Chang’an, cannot represent the Chinese people. I hope the people of India will soon get rid of the new crown virus.”

Amidst the outrage, China Chang’an.com removed the blog post, but the condemnation from Weibo users did not stop. They left a message saying, “Humanity is above politics, I don’t think clapping at the death of innocent people can proclaim national prestige …… let everyone see such narrow-minded nationalism in the official media of the titular Central Committee of Political and Legal Affairs.”
“Have the guts to send no guts to accept the people’s comments?” “As the official microblog of the Chinese Political and Legal Committee news, your remarks are really disgraceful. Is there any basic humanistic concern?”
Others said they had reported the post to Weibo as “promoting hatred” and “regional discrimination.
On Twitter, the message also sparked outrage from a large number of Chinese tweeters. They accused the Chinese Communist Party and its official media of “getting nastier and nastier,” “They used to be foxes with their tails between their legs, but now they’re wolves with their faces exposed,” “This is blatantly anti-human speech. “, “humanity has disappeared, it’s all party spirit”, “who is evil, the world should see clearly”.
In fact, this is not the first time that “China Chang’an.com” has posted such posts. Looking at its recent releases, the cynicism towards India is almost non-stop.

In addition, on April 30, China Police Online, the official microblog of the Ministry of Public Security and the Public Security Administration of the Communist Party of China (CPC), also posted a similar comparison between the construction site of the Vulcan Mountain Hospital in Wuhan on the left and the open burning site in India on the right. The picture was accompanied by the text “China’s Vulcan Mountain, India’s ‘Vulcan Mountain'”, and the hashtag “Delhi, India to change dog crematorium to human use”. The post was deleted late on May 1.
