      To the extent that lockdowns work they work BECAUSE they are universal They work because EVERYONE is following the rules, so one person's slip-up here and there has a reduced impact And because the social pressure of everyone doing it makes the "good choices" easier

      The libertarian solution of "Everyone just decides their own acceptable risk profile and modifies their behavior accordingly" is fucking idiotic It's the equivalent of saying we don't need speed limits -- if you're worried about an accident, just drive slower than everyone else

      Everyone can drive drunk. If that worries you, just stay off the roads. Oh, you need to drive to work? Too bad.

      Fuckstains like this talking like "self-isolating" is even a *possible task* at all in a world where most "normal, healthy people" have completely stopped trying Try social distancing in a supermarket where nobody else is doing it, see how long you can keep it up

      All of which is to say, too - we can figure out what the right balance is, where we can limit the spread of the virus without focusing on the most onerous and least efficacious aspects of a quarantine. But that solution is not 'idk, do whatever'

      If we decided that schools are worth keeping open above all other public places - which may be a good call - we have to do things like shut down bars and restaurants, which we're not doing.

      And an actual committed lockdown of 2-3 months would have been much more effective than 8 months of partial maybe lockdowns. "Why do we have to lock down AGAIN!" Because we never did in the first place!!

      The USA is a bigger country than Taiwan or South Korea, sure, and a much less centralized one with multiple points of entry for the virus into the country And yet a harsh, early lockdown in February or March plus extensive test-and-trace could've prevented almost all of this

      Obama's people made Trump's people do a whole training exercise for this, emphasizing how rapid, decisive response in the first days when a virus hits your shores makes all the difference

      Trump knew this, and yet he listened to the libertarian fucksticks who think every use of big-government authority should be done slowly and with great reluctance and the most important thing is not to spook the stock market Hence "It'll disappear in the summer, like magic"

          Somehow, I think this transcended even the Libertarians. Like, they deserve a lot of the blame, but it's not even ideological. It was a tantrum, a mass-scale DON'T WANNA that killed hundreds of thousands.

          Like, they also didn't take the libertarian solutions of encouraging masks, etc.
