It is by definition propaganda and I doubt every school in China is exercising that level of sanitation but as someone who was just a few weeks ago casting aspersions on lockdowns and whose witless PM bungled the response so badly that he landed in the ER, the irony of you "laughing" at an insignificant feel good video is itself a deeply ironic image and extraordinarily in character for you.

There was a reason I asked that question of course. And that is, am I simply interpreting everything to fit a preconceived conclusion? And you seem to acknowledge that you at least understand my reasoning on this. That it does indeed look like a propaganda video. The point being, it was a legitimate point I made.

And I don't quite follow the point you are making here. Again, it either does look like a propaganda video or it doesn't. There is nothing hypocritical or ironic about stating something that is a fairly accurate description of something.

Interestingly though, I never once said lockdown measures were right or wrong. In fact I explicitly said in one of the posts you are probably referring to that it is was probably the right decision considering the circumstances. Funny that isn't it? How that is missed. Why is that exactly? Maybe 'ironically' preconceived notions of what I believe leaves you to always interpret everything I say a certain way maybe? Looking at everything people say along partisan lines? What?

The point I have made is that, there is no vaccine, the virus could come back in a second wave, and that at some point we may have to just face up to it and live as if everything is normal. I also fear that if we stay in lockdown for too long it could have disastrous effects. That is all.

The South Korea LGBTQ community fears discrimination after a reported spike in coronavirus cases has linked to a 29-year-old man who visited nightclubs in the gay district of the capital.

As of May 9, the country confirmed 18 new coronavirus cases — the first time in five days that the number jumped above 10.

But local news reports have focused on details about the outbreak occurring in the gay district of Itaewon in the capital, causing anti-gay rhetoric on social media.

While homosexuality is not illegal in South Korea, discrimination of the LGBTQ community is widespread.

The country's rigorous "track and trace" model has caused fear in the LGBTQ community that people will be forced to out themselves.

Some local news organization later changed the headlines, removing references to "gay bars."

You know that meme thread post about "bu-bu-bu rocket go brrrr"? That's literally the last three arguments we had with him in a nutshell :lol

It's his own fault. I'm sitting in my living room chilling watching a flick or something and this guy has to bring up his wank dads and can't deal with any pushback.

I was in Jon Blow's twitch chat a week ago when someone brought up the Musk tweets about the stock and it was hilarious watching someone who espouses critical thinking so much turn themself into a mental pretzel to defend Elon Musk. OTOH I've seen a lot of other people finally start to realize that Musk isn't some savior of mankind and is just a self absorbed rich guy.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
The lamest counter was "show your resume", to which I responded that I don't have rich parents who bankrolled my start in life. And apparently bringing up his parents and their ill-gotten riches is a meme.

The day after lockdown : Work gave a handful of masks (fabric and a couple surgical I think). Public transportation is fine, plenty of room... But I'm not using the most popular routes. Only a third, at most, of the usual workforce here.
I had work during the lockdown, it's not so much different for me except I have masks now (mandatory in public transport, likely to be  expected elsewhere).

Thousands attended a rodeo in California despite state orders against public gatherings amid the coronavirus pandemic, it has been reported.

Crowds could be seen packed tightly in the stands at Sunday’s annual Cottonwood Rodeo in rural Shasta County, after local police said they would not enforce the state’s lockdown orders.

Video also showed people queueing outside toilets and food trucks, even though organisers promised food would not be sold at the event.

Despite the crisis – California has seen more than 66,000 cases of Covid-19 – a number of spectators told local media they felt safe enough to attend due to Shasta County’s low rates of confirmed infections.

“This event’s been going on for 50 years, it’s a tradition for probably most of us, the rest of them that are here have been tired of being cooped up for months,” one festival-goer told KRCR News, an ABC affiliate station.

“We have constitutional rights, we have inalienable rights given to us by God,” another said.

Kind of the same in France, the debates about hoods for Muslim women got increasingly strident for years culminating in a severe law for all face coverings.

I'm sure we'll resume the controversy once everything is back to some normal in a few years (?) -though I think mask usage for medical protection will become a lot more accepted and common in the West- but at least we'll be spared of it for a while.
