It does not explain why you would lie about the images before. That is an important question.
I didn't lie. I thought those images were from the present. I posted follow up ones from now, 2020.Very well, you didnt lie: You were careless with the truth. Noted.
(The 2017 dates were obvious in the URLs. That is what jumped out at me, at a glance; and I presumed that you must have noticed, too.)
Also, as a separate issue, your argument is nonsensical. Even if all of these images (including the ones from 2017) were from the present, it doesnt show that They are literally laughing at the stupidity of rest of the world rnunless you suggest that everybody who ever enjoys himself over beer must be celebrating at others misfortune.
Are beer festivals ipso facto evil? Or would the Chinese be disallowed from all ordinary pleasures because people in other countries decided to act like headless chickens? Please clarify.

Not nonsensical, no.
With a population of 1.4 billion people, and the epicenter of the outbreak, they went back to "business as usual" the fastest of any other country, and clearly have no more fear of Covid-19, including second, third, forth waves, reinfections, etc. The majority there clearly do not care to wear masks in crowds anymore.
Why? Because they (and their govt) know the truth... that Covid-19 is not really that big of a threat.
The rest of the world gets to "be disallowed from all ordinary pleasures" and continue to be shut down, while the Chinese laugh at the rest of the world's naivety and ignorance while they party and have a fun, normal existence.
That sounds like an argument that the Chinese are just smarter and saner than everybody else; I dont buy it. And you still did not explain why a beer festival, which they apparently hold every year, constitutes [laughing] at the rest of the world's naivety and ignorance.
In WO, in in my own P&S thread, and elsewhere, I have been shouting from the rooftops since March that people should stop panicking. (Though there is something to panic about: Impending extreme economic hardship, starvation, and unlimited tyranny... I fear hunger more than I fear Covid!) I saw that the self-destructive mass reaction was bad; so did many others, IIRC (?) including you. If people dont heed sound reason, I dont see what the Chinese have to do with itunless the Chinese somehow control other peoples governments, mainstream media, and masses of ordinary people who are blindly terrified into submission.
It is this which destroys the world whilst spectacularly failing to save it.
Why shouldnt the Chinese have a fun, normal existence? Just because everybody else has succumbed to mass hysteria?
"Huh... so you think you can hold my beer?" (another strain of Corona)
Corona renamed their beer. Stupid.
I just noticed that Wikimedia Commons memory-holed the old Corona beer logoWTF? Thus, the broken image link:
