      A certain Brazilian SubStack blogger who REALLY wants Ron DeSantis to be the next president of the United States has some hilariously stupid defenses of libertarian responses to COVID-19 in our commentspic.twitter.com/Q5R0CltCfe

      The my favorite is that because it has a Democratic governor he uses Michigan as a gotcha, while obviously not realizing that Michigan currently has...the same laissez-faire policies he favors, with absolutely disastrous results.

      Needless to say, if you compare DeSantis and Abbott to COMPETENT Democratic governors like Brown and Inslee, the results are much worse with death rates more than twice as high, because the libertarian response is in fact badhttps://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#cases_deathsper100k …

      And of course the idea that "lockdowns" (by which he seems to mean any anti-COVID measures with negative economic effects, as virtually nowhere in the US has done actual Italy-style lockdowns) can't work also requires ignoring Korea, Australia, NZ, etc. etc. So silly.

      And needless to say, the problem in CA has been too much DeSantisism, not too little.https://twitter.com/charliearchy/status/1385662380739371008 …

      Hi, lived in California. There are a lot of Republicans! Not a majority. And "lockdowns" there were a joke. Orange County had indoor dining almost throughout -- not even a mask mandate, because the public health official who recommended one got death threats and resigned.

      Scott Lemieux Retweeted Accelerationist for Biden

      In related news, here's Glenn on with another libertarian named Glenn arguing that favoring majority rule (as opposed to massively overrepresenting rural white voters) is "tyrannical"https://twitter.com/Nitzky89/status/1385630634102693889 …

      He’s also wrong about the founders and the idea of “rural” states - there was nothing specifically rural about small states at the time There’s absolutely no legitimate reason there should be small rural states but not small urban states

          Aren’t both RI and DE small urban states right now?

          I think that’s fair. Of the 11 states with no more than 2 congressional districts, those are the only two I think one would characterize that way - notably those were the two smallest states at founding of the republic!

          RI had the 2nd smallest population but 2 of the top 10 "cities". Virginia had about 19% of the population but no top 10 cities. Granted there were like 5 actual urban areas at that point. 2 of the top 10 are now neighborhoods in Philadelphia, with Philadelphia separately at #2.
