I don't get it. The countries that have growing number of cases in hundreds of even thousands each day want to open all kind of business and services.

There are paramilitary groups and far-right militia movements, and far right political funding pressuring the most mentally frail state governments, which is how you end up with one saying shit like this;

Texas Lt. Gov.: ‘There are more important things than living’

The right does not care about human life, certainly not when it impedes profits. And the liberals have their backs. That's all it's about. This is late stage capitalism: A decimated welfare state and a government that serves only the rich created the perfect conditions for this virus.

"I don't get it" was more of a figure of speech. However if you have these kinds of numbers even with strong suppression of economic activity then you will probably nuke the whole economy by opening it for just a few weeks. Plus once you overwhelm the healthcare system the death rate isn't only 2.5%. My government has new daily number of registered cases almost in single digits on better days, but they are still very careful and slow with opening because things can get out hand quickly. Plus there is plenty of undetected cases around the landscape.



The funny part is that my right that runs the pandemic response wouldn't qualify as the right in US. While for me US has more of a problem with misinformation and crazy people than with anything truly right.

Jesus. Is there any situation you can't shoehorn your ridiculous progressive conspiracy theories into?

And people wonder why conservatives don't trust elected officials that are chomping at the bit to use this national emergency to reshape American life.

You sound worried. But nothing I said was untrue, let alone a conspiracy theory. I leave those to conservatives who are much better at the crazy talk and action. See below.

The rightwing groups behind wave of protests against Covid-19 restrictions | World news | The Guardian

It was organized by the Michigan Conservative Coalition, which Michigan state corporate filings show has also operated under the name of Michigan Trump Republicans. It was also heavily promoted by the Michigan Freedom Fund, a group linked to the Trump cabinet member Betsy DeVos.

But the protest also attracted far-right protest groups who have been present at pro-Trump and gun rights rallies in Michigan throughout the Trump presidency.

Far be it for me to take up for the party as a whole, but there are a few Republican governors unwilling to take the lemming route on Covid.

A few. But those are individuals and will likely pay the price for defying the party/Trump. It's also the reason this garbage human can walk around with this sign, with zero repercussions.

The only thing that worries me is partisan bullshit undoing our cooperative social distancing progress- which I am all for, but five seconds of listening to your impressively unwavering routine makes me want to ignore anything our leftist governer says and get back to full time work immediately. Way to do your part.

Now that is some grade-A maturity right there. People are being mean, so let's shit the bed and spite them!

Also note the complete lack of refuting any of the "partisan bullshit". The only ones pulling partsian bullshit is the gop, trump, and you.

Yeah honestly [MENTION=4050]ceecee[/MENTION]. It would be one thing if he didn't need to read this thread, if he didn't need to read your posts - chock full of ideas that trouble him. Even though your views are far more widely shared than he seems to be willing to begin to accept, the point here is that it troubles him and you're forcing him to read it by posting them in his purview. Jesus, ceecee. There's no need to listen to what you're saying and form a rational rebuttal to express disagreement, because your ideas are so clearly bad and wrong. To anticlimatic, who has to read them.

Trying thinking about other people once in a while.

Plus you should smile more.
