I have always wondered about the effectiveness of ventilators. 3 out of 22 is pathetic. Maybe if we do away with ventilators, more ppl will survive? I can’t imagine how one can clear the phlegm in the lungs with ventilators on. I think if it was me, I will opt out of ventilators. With ventilators, we are not controlling the breathing and that is scary as hell.
Might as well just go ahead and launch nukes at them right now, same impact to all of us in the end. I get your frustrations, but you don't tell a country of over a billion people with the world's second biggest economy (and their own significant nuclear arsenal) to go fuck themselves and expect them to meekly accept your demands. The world's unstable enough at the moment, throwing gasoline on the fire isn't going to make any of us safer or better off at this point. The "coalition of the willing" wasn't able to win a war in a small, backward middle eastern country, I don't think China is terribly afraid of the U.S. forcing them into submission.
No, you still don't get it. It's about bitching about things we have influence over. Not about things that are not in our realm of control. You can talk all you like about Baba Xi, nobody gives a damn and you won't have any impact. But we can express and influence via our direct votes. It pays to focus on things we have power over.
