Corona in Melbourne is/was a total shitshow, you had to keep your second largest metro under a super strict, almost Orwellian lockdown for what, 3-4 months? And let's not forget the ugly infighting between your states' various governors over opening state borders, over the woman who wasnt allowed to visit her dad on his deathbed, etc.

And we also have to take into account how Australia is set up much better to deal with this virus, being an island, far away from the main international travel routes, with all major metros being so far away from each other that an outbreak in one of them is easily prevented from spreading through the rest of the country. Don't get me wrong, Australia did a much better job than the U.S., but their handling of the virus shouldnt be glorified.

I have several thoughts on this:

You are aware "god emperor of the United States" is just a humorous nickname, right?

Kangaroos tend to spread the virus less easily than people in NYC. Direct comparison invalid.

He deserves some blame as the frontman of the government.

He trotted out fraudci and that other lady for about 5 years in a row. (years adjusted for 2020 inflation)

Governments across the world were pretty shit at dealing with this, including the US govt

'social distancing, masks and hand washing' were heavily pushed in America too.

Lockdowns and restrictions in many places went way too far w/ dubious results.

Some people still have their stones and want to live their lives.

What kind of plague spreading science denier wears A mask?
3 mask minimum even when showering. The virus could go down the drain and infect someone else if you aren't wearing masks.

If a doctor can wear ten then you should have no problem wearing three. We are all in this together.

However No masks are needed when attending a riot because the virus supports communism and justice and biden and stuff.

I taped 6 12inch rulers to each side of my car to be extra safe. Probably should be mandated, even after covid-1984 is over. It could save one life.
The ruler rule means Parking Lots must also be reformed. I think that is included in the Green New Deal and its good because jobs. It has the extra benefit of helping the fat acceptance movement, which I know you love.
