Kung Fu is good for you.
So is believing everything that you hear on the Evening News on your TV. Those with brains, can choose and evaluate the material on You Tube and other internet sources, whereas what you get on your official news programs regarding the important issues, is just regurgitated "repeats" of the official version of what dishonest political leaders decide to put out there, courtesy of lap dog "journalists", who are not interested in real news, nor shaking the boat.
The offical news fantasy, in turn becomes the "reality" for the neuron challenged members of the society, who then go on to scoff and ridicule anything that challenges their "implanted" two dimensional belief systems.
They do so quoting what is daringly called the official "news", together with feeble attempts at justifying their "intellect", by using as a basis their academic degrees, which are presumably the same type of qualifications possessed by the politicians who lie and steal from them every day.........
I hope the above post has been enlightening for you.....

2017 Brutal Cold Leads to Bursting people
Photo of China’s ‘Ice Boy,’ Frozen on a Walk to School, Goes Viral
13 Jan 2018
A photo of a young Chinese boy has gone viral in the country, as he arrived in school with a frozen face and hair after walking through the frigid rural cold, The South China Morning Post reports.
The photos surfaced nearly a month after a report revealed that the Chinese government has significantly limited access to fuel sources in rural communities in an attempt to better conform to environmental standards.
The boy, named Wang Fuman, was photographed arriving at his a primary school in southwest Yunnan province with his hair covered in frost and bright red cheeks as a result of the sub-zero temperatures after walking around 4.5km (2.8 miles) to get there.

Chinese media claim that the photo has prompted thousands of donations to the boy’s school. Eighty-one pupils have reportedly received around 50,000 yuan ($77) in subsidies. A local engineering firm also donated 144 items of warm clothing and offered the boy’s father a new job.
“I’m so happy because many people are helping me and have given me many gifts,” the boy was quoted as saying, adding that he wanted to save some of his pocket money for when his parents fall ill.

Freezing temperatures and a lack of basic heating has become a major issue for peasant communities across China’s major cities, compounded by the regime’s recent clean air initiatives to tackle pollution.
Reports in December quoted social media posts from rural communities where residents protested that they had to sacrifice to adhere to the environmental whims of the Communist Party. “We are frozen to death. Please help us,” one such post read, according to the BBC.
That month, the communist government was forced to reverse a ban on coal to help ease the pressure of sub-zero temperatures, while many people are paying double the price for natural gas to heat their homes.
Like many parts of the world, China is currently experiencing a vicious cold snap from which ten people have died, while 567,000 people have been affected.
