[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But China only wants to protect the people. It’s such a benevolent nation[/quote]

I wouldn’t call them benevolent, but they definitely handled covid better. We could learn a lot from them. Not just in how the government administers it’s authority, but how the people accept it. We’d be better off as a nation if we were more like China. [/quote]

Troll gonna troll[/quote]

I can assure you I’m definitely not a troll.

What I AM is someone who’s had their fill of the “muh freedumbs” idiots over the last few years. Freedumb IS the problem. This country has too much of it, and these idiots can’t handle it. So yes, I admire the Chinese, for the way their citizens understand personal responsibility and for the way the govt doesn’t allow the stupidity we’ve seen here during the pandemic. We the opposite end of the spectrum from China. The ideal point would be somewhere in the middle. Closer to where UK/Canada/Australia/NZ  would’ve been IF they didn’t have their own freedumb loons mucking things up.  Inspired by American freedumb loons, btw.

So yes, I look longingly towards being more like China.

China is stupid in their own way.  Surely you must realize that.  They resort to lockdowns because they don’t have a decent vaccine.  If they could have provided their citizens that, they likely could have opened up with masks and it would have been ok there.

Also calling anyone who dares to question the cost/benefits of Covid mitigation measures as “freedumbs” shows you are simple minded and most likely sheltered.   What made sense in March 2020 eventually did not anymore.[/quote]
