For it to work, you would literally have to weld people's doors shut i am very smart :centrist:
These fake things we made up to demonize China are in fact fake, which just proves China was lying all along.
The propaganda by the Chinese cult we support to stick it to the CPC started to affect our own population
When the chickens come home to roost.
not trying to own you or anything but new zealand and australia might just fare better than us in the northern hemisphere because its summer there now and flu-like viruses spread way less easily during that season
It was winter in the Southern Hemisphere when New Zealand basically eradicated the virus
I mean, a couple months ago they were able to have in person concerts again.
I don't think capitalists are driven primarily by ideology, some of them might be but it's an inefficient strategy that contradicts the profit motive and faces selective pressure over the long run.
I see it as more of a tragedy of the commons scenario, yes a lockdown is good for The Economy but every individual capitalist and business has a strong incentive to continue operating despite the lockdown. If the state doesn't present them with enough disincentives, why not flaunt the lockdown for a quick buck?
The bourgeoisie are in many ways just as disorganized and in conflict with one another as the proletariat. Of course there are other factors as well, like the huge pressure created by quarterly financial reporting and the genuine ignorance of Western "experts", I think the sum of these material factors paint a more robust picture than a predominantly ideological explanation.
Looking back at the footage that was coming out of China in January/February, doesn’t something seem a little fucky though? Specifically the videos of people collapsing in the streets, or of people being loaded while thrashing into plastic containment bags by groups of people in hazmat suits.
Now, maybe I’m completely wrong and those things actually were happening en masse in China, but, considering videos along those same lines weren’t appearing in other countries the virus spread to, I feel like the internet may have been getting hysterical and spreading videos that were isolated incidents or maybe not even covid related at all that ended up making the virus look like an honest to god zombie apocalypse.
I don’t know. Anyone else have thoughts on the crazy ass videos that were coming out of China at the beginning of things?
A lot were just low effort anti China propaganda, one was a drunk Korean tourist in Singapore. R/sino was debunking then at the time, they just got play because lol China getting owned by COVID and Americans fell for their own product.

First thing I saw on the user's profile was him saying "there is a real virus, its a mild cold" lmaooo

Although the conspiracy theories says the virus was man made, at the moment no one confirmed that, CCP got exactly what they wanted to have other countries bended on their knees, because the communication between government and people is flawed. Look it up at this way of the virus was created by a Chinese lab to overthrow the other countries wouldn’t it be patriotic to just use a mask, keep social distancing and avoid getting the “Chinese” virus and with that avoid the downfall of your own country? Or was it more patriotic to let a foreign country be pleased with the downfall of your own country? Sometimes we have to abdicate some freedoms in order to let our country healthy, remember WWII when US soldiers went to fought the nazis? They let go of their freedoms to keep the world a little better place than it was.
Conspiracies apart, this virus proved that our governments and our countrymen aren’t capable of dealing with such a devastating event and, I believe, in the end game it will all leading to our downfall and demise as a species.
