Not true - I also post mocking diatribes in brexit threads and enjoy yelling about gun control.

Gotta say, though, this pandemic really hasn't been a good look for the whole "privatized healthcare" thing you guys have going on...

Yeah I forgot about Spain and Italy private healthcare too. Not looking good for that system indeed

Sorry if I'm coming off cynical but people have a bad habit of politicizing tragedies even before the bodies have gone cold. Now isn't the time for this. Yeah I wanna rant how this is all CCP's and WHO's fault but I think just surviving all this is more of a priority.

If by "politicizing tragedies" you mean "pointing out that people need to start taking this seriously because testing confirms is just as bad as everyone else already understood it to be," then sure, but personally I think that's more of a practical thing than anything really political. The crisis is ongoing, and while pointing fingers does nothing to fix that, placing blame where blame is due can help to find deficiencies that need to be fixed in order to get anything done.

Criticizing is never going to make things worse, tragedies should be politicized on the spot.

During a crisis it is the duty of a populace to support their leaders.

If people had been questioning Winston Churchill we'd all be speaking German right now.

I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility.

Yeah, guys! Stop being political! Just stand back and let morons screw things up without getting in their way or demanding that they, y'know, actually do their jobs properly. Don't you have any tact at all?!

in a week or two, coronavirus will be the leading cause of death in USA, and it will only get worse from there, doubling many times past that.

Blindly following leaders even if they're doing a terrible job doesn't sound like a good idea.

Do you want fascism? Because that's how you get fascism.

A crisis is exactly when we should be analyzing and/or questioning the actions (or inactions) or our leaders.

It's when we should be supporting or helping one another rather than following the whims of the very people that might have gotten us into such a mess, or at least exacerbated it. Sometimes people in charge should be followed if they are truly of leader quality and are trying to make things better, but this crisis and this administration are proof of otherwise.

Strange, I thought having the president of the United States attempt to keep the amount of coronavirus testing down b/c otherwise the # of cases found might drastically increase and that'd be bad for his stock market was the shining example of politicizing a tragedy.

Didn't realize I had stepped into the Twilight Zone, where lambasting him for his "economy first; saving lives 2nd" approach was now the act considered to be "politicizing" the tragedy.

Probably not. The USSR basically won WWII. The outcome wouldve been the monarchy in Canada, the USA the same, and all of Europe and East Asia being a communist hellhole that spoke their own languages. Japan didnt surrender from the nukes, the surrendered because Russia was coming now and they didnt want to be treated how theyd been treating others.

The numbers in the US are just getting worse every day, we have over 2000 deaths already and we are literally just getting started, large parts of this country still have no cases at all, but the cats out of the bag, so they will eventually (pretty much impossible to put that genie back in the bottle at this point).

I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not posting numbers anymore because it's too freaking depressing. Especially as it's looking like this is going to be a problem for along time, which means people like me, either have to live in complete isolation, or have a high risk of dying.

That's not what I meant! You say what you want to the president. I don't care about that. What I'm saying is theres more important things to worry about right now than your precious Marxist theory.

Politics isn't meant to benefit one person, it's meant to implement policies that solve problems

So when you see headers like "Bernie Sanders uses coronavirus for personal gain" it actually means he's trying to get you more shit

"Politicizing a tragedy" is just a buzzphrase people use when they want you to stop talking about something.

I dont count any sanctuary cities as part of the USA as they designate themselves as international territory through their social policies, so disagree with this personally.
