It's hard to even fault Democrats. Republicans are going to romp in November solely on the "masks, vaccine mandates and lockdowns are bad" message. The US is a nation of spoiled children that have never been told no and this is the result. No policy implementation could have changed this outcome. The US is a blight on the world.
People don't want to be slightly inconvenienced by wearing a mask. If we had kept spring 2020 level virus control protocols in place it would be even worse. The US is beyond redemption.
I'm sorry but your position is naive. If we had done full China zero covid response and a million people hadn't died the "but at what cost" folks would be winning even harder.
Do they even realize that they are basically acting like how they perceive liberals? As self-entitled "me me me" people that have no regard for civic duty and consider that oppression.
MFW everyone is getting COVID because the actually smart people lost a culture war to legions of idiots.
I used to think individualism was a flawless thing, but now I want enough collectivism so people can act like adults instead of every time we get a solution, large swathes of people disobey for the sake of "nyah nyah! I can do whatever I want and no one tells ME what to do!*"

The point is the nothing that they did has been seen as government overreach by a really huge portion of the electorate. We all know the Democrats are beyond reforming. The comment is to illustrate how individualism is literally the only American value.

But we would still have countries that did fuck all and got dead people.
Fuck em, we'd have not-murdered a million+ people and probably saved the rest of the planet a lot of pain from us being a turbo evolution petri dish

Yeah people are cheering on planes when told the mask mandate was lifted
Yeah, that's pretty much it. I'm not being an apologist for Democrats, just pointing out what a giant sack of garbage the average American is.
When some of them want a nuclear exchange with Russia, and believe they could win, I knew the peace time truly make them entitle.

A dictatorship of the proletariat could have changed this outcome 😤
Yes

Not that hard. They tried nothing and they're all out of ideas.
