i'm curious if the DEMs are in secret talks with UK/EU leaders asking them to go on lockdown again and promising them bailouts
Easy with the tin foil. The UK has a real money printer and a commitment from the BOE to pay the bills for the time being (which in central bank intelligista language means it's permanent). We can't do that and are entirely dependent on Congress during an election year for financial relief. It's a completely different scenario. Plus, the Brits are kinda little bitches now, I'd imagine their Karen per million is much higher than the U.S.

Boris had best rethink this lockdown thing or he may be Her Majesty's last PM. Hell, Liz may be the last of the English monarchs.
Lockdowns will produce unintended
consequences.

now that they're opening up, their rates are dramatically increasing again, as i predicted.
Did you also boldly predict the sun would rise in the eastern sky?

Not all of Europe is locking back down, though. E.g. Northern Europe is back in school with things open and with pretty modest increases. Anybody arguing the "lockdowns aren't ever justified because they only have temporary effect" has to contend with what places like Germany have down post lockdown.

It already started last week in Foreign Affairs mag. They advocate going on a strict lockdown whetein the only people allowed to work are the "essential" types. Under their proposal 65 % of us stay at home and suck off our savings or the govetnment teet for a minimum of 2 mos. Everyone should read it because if Biden gets elected or the Dems get a hold of the Senate that is where we will be heading.
The only way of enforcing this imho is to federalize the cops and get draconian in enforcement...

The frick? I thought the death rate here in USA was around .05%,
Case fatality rate and death rate are not the same thing. Amazing after 10 months people are still confusing the two.

Covid 19 has if nothing else reminded me how willfully ignorant the vast majority of our population is.

True. Mask wearers and Coronabros have shockingly low IQ. They still think masks and lock downs work if you can believe it.

Do you think we should lockdown in the US?

Who to believe: the hospital consistently ranked as the best in the world vs. a random poster on Tigerdroppings? That's a tough one.

Meanwhile, in Sweden, where they did not lock down and did not mandate masks are living normal life. When are these bureaucratic messes of English-speaking nations going to follow the data and the science and back down from a baseless agenda of big-government intervention?

So is this somehow related to our media fabricating Covid?
