when i was a teen in brampton, my old next door neighbours were newfies. some of their friends would probably tune you up for throwing goof around hanging out with them was great because after about two drinks the accents would start to kick in harcore

Sagebrush posted:back in february a student asked me if i thought classes would be cancelled because of this virus thing happening in china. i said nah, it looks like china has it under control, and i doubt it'll spread to the rest of the world. seems pretty under control from where i am. took a trip last month to wuhan itself even and things were like 90% back to normal and nobody i know knows anyone who got sick. well except one guy in my wife’s grandmothers village who died of covid back in february

not trying to brag or anything. we actually had quite a few euro and american employees bail out of china when the news first hit right before chinese new year and they mostly spent the year still stuck working from home in hellworld unable to return and in hindsight would have been better off staying. i feel kinda bad when talking to them

i have to imagine that if you were in china during the lockdown orders and you decided to pull some bullshit like this https://www.minimallycompliantmasks.com/ they would just throw you right in prison without a trial and frankly we need more of that in the usa.

Hmm. I'm not actually sure that on the whole, competent authoritarianism is better than the incompetent kind they have in the states. It handles some types of crises better I guess.
