Li Yuan on Twitter: "How quickly can a whole nation forget about a catastrophe? In Chan Koonchung’s 2009 dystopian novel "The Fat Years," it took 2 years. In reality, it took 2 months for many Chinese to leave behind anger&despair over the coronavirus crisis. We discussed why. https://t.co/IAWbQrvl56"

  people from other countries are still angry and despair over Cov because of the mislead of their leaders they choose. the fact that China and it's people recovered soon from the epidemic clearly implied the advantages of socialism. yet we didn't forget what Cov has brought to us.

  On one hand, there is a whole scientific domain working to find solutions so that people could manage traumatic experiences and get back to life ASAP; on the other hand, you have certain authors romanticize a catastrophe and accuse people to forget it quickly.
