      Beijing is doing everything it can to manipulate the public sentiment and crash dissent, but its propaganda playbook isn't working so well. The crisis has exposed many people to troubling aspects of life under an authoritarian govt & they're pushing back.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/26/business/china-coronavirus-propaganda.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage …

      Interesting article. I'd like to ask you: Why is women shaving their heads "a gesture of devotion"? I'm Japanese, and there are lots of propaganda and strange cultural beliefs in Japan as well, but I've never heard of that one.

      By shaving their heads, they're showing that they would do anything it's required to do their work on the frontline. But the men weren't asked to shave their heads. Some hospitals also asked women to take contraceptive pill to delay period so they can be like men...

      Random idea I'd wanted to run by someone w/expertise in religion I *think* Buddhist nuns shave their heads when they 出嫁 & enter their orders So, shaving heads of nurses visually amplifies Beijing's propaganda effort to portray them as secular saints, devoted to Party & nation

      Don't know much about religion. Here's what feminists are saying: when they write about the professionalism of medical workers,they focused on men.When the cameras turned to women, they were about how women went to the frontline shortly after giving birth or having miscarriages.
