"America really sucks at X!"

"Yeah but China sucks worse and is lying!"

Every time. Congrats, we're probably not as bad as fucking China. Guess we don't need to worry then.

This is what I said in a more roundabout way in a topic a few days ago. We could have ten thousand or ten million people die in the US from this disease, and people would still cling to this pointless notion of 'well China's lying about their numbers!'

China probably is lying, but who cares? Let them lie, it doesn't change the losses we are having in our country. The only statistics I care about are the ones that show where we are heading, those are the ones we can change and those are the ones that effect us.

Where are we like 3000 deaths in a month? I bet more people died in the same time period preforming sexual activities.

I mean it's serious, but not that serious.

Sort on the cases/deaths per 1M columns. Not adjusting for population and calling the U.S. #1 is dishonest.

Still, even if all states mandate social distancing within the next week, and then maintained this through May, some 82,000 people in the US could die from coronavirus by August, University of Washington health metrics sciences professor Christopher Murray told CNN on Tuesday, citing his modeling.

The model estimates that more than 2,000 people could die each day in the United States in mid-April, when the virus is predicted to hit the country hardest.

Here's a thought. If you make a number just talking about US numbers, people won't being up China's numbers.

But if you make a topic specifically COMPARING US numbers to China's numbers, no shit people are going to talk about China's numbers. It's the other side of the comparison.

Regardless of how you feel, people die everyday all the time when you least expect it.

Nobody wants to die, but it is something that happens and eventually will happen to you.

There is no other side. The top spots on a bad list are all bad. What does being 1st or 2nd actually change? No rational person can see a winner in that fight.

If that's your opinion, you shouldn't engage in comparison discussions at all. Leave the topic.

We should care more about any death we can prevent as a society. What a weird thing to be flippant about. Is your reaction when terrorist attacks or other mass deaths happen?

Brand new diseases that are infecting and killing more people every day just happen to perk our ears up more than everyday death.

No one who can read over the 4th grade level would ever think this is a good/bad comparison.

everyone talking about China lying about their numbers, the US isn't any better. We aren't testing enough people to know who really has it, and the CDC already confirmed some people are being called flu/pneumonia deaths, and then finding out they have covid after they die

We also sat on intel as we are wont to do.

"But we don't secretly kill political dissidents like in China!"

Wow what a huge accomplishment. "Could always be worse" seems to be the rallying cry for defenders of America's honor.
