Yesterday a random article popped up in my feed about authorities supposedly shutting down a grave after a car attack. Didn’t think too much of it, but today I got another one talking about how it’s a Chinese tendency to cope with denial referring to ‘deadly attacks’ (wow racist much?)
given that my youtube page isn’t flooded with this junk it’s safe to assume everyone will forget about this in a week, if they even heard of it, but what’s this whole thing about?
China collapses in about 100 different ways every week, if Western media were to be believed.
China is collapsing, totally, swearsies, for real this time, not like the five hundred times we lied to you about it, promise!
Someone decided to take their frustration out on random people. Much more common in the U.S. than China, but western media jumps at the chance to frame it in the worst possible ways. Got to stoke that sinophobia.

I found YouTube links in your comment. Here are links to the same videos on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

A quick look on Xinhua and Global Times turns up nothing about an attack like you describe. There was a knife attack at a vocational school and a car ramming attack at a sports center in the last few days. Criminal investigations are proceeding as one would expect in, well, any country.
And a word about Chinese response to deadly attacks: when Uyghur separatists were doing that the response was a huge education, integration, and investment program in Uyghur communities. No such attacks have happened in years as a result of meeting people where they’re at and making their lives materially better.
