This isn't a difficult concept to understand Neither is a per-capita infection rate, but that seems to be lost on you if you think that population difference is actually meaningful to this discussion. OhhhJa posted... Like Brazil? India? Indonesia? Russia? All places where the virus is really starting to take hold now and the cases are rapidly growing. So congratulations on naming four countries that have lower virus numbers - both raw and per-capita - than the US, thus doing a great job of proving my point for me. Moreover, look at the countries you just named. That's who you think the US should be compared to? Those are the health-care titans that you think the world's biggest economy should boast about being ahead of (despite, y'know, not actually being ahead of them) after eight months of a global pandemic? You really don't see how pathetic of a flex that is? OhhhJa posted... Unless you think Netflix is only watched by americans. OK, so you're basing the assertion that this is Canada's most "well-known" show off of Netflix only, which seems spurious. I don't know what metric you're using for this, or how Netflix calculates it, and I don't honestly care enough to dig into it, because the fact that you've been reduced to trying to talk about a fictional television series as a line of attack during a discussion of a global pandemic is honestly kind of pathetic. If that's where you're going to try and find your W's, go ahead and take this one, but you might want to set your sights a little higher next time. MartianManchild posted... Because it doesnt fit the agenda of making it look like Americans are stupid and every other country is just doing great and accepting all these restrictions. There are idiots everywhere, but the press doesn't have to "make Americans look stupid"; the virus data that gets published regularly does a good enough job of that on its own. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer.
