Meh, people grow old and die, and old wounds heal.
Looking towards the future most all of China’s neighbors prefer something that looks more like the US system and less like being welded shut into your apartment on a whim.
- DiogenesKynikos 2y ago> welded shut into your apartment on a whim. I think you're referencing the Covid pandemic, but keep in mind: - being "welded shut" happened once to a few people in one city, a few weeks into the pandemic when everyone was panicking, and it was a scandal inside China. People on social media were outraged, and the doors were immediately reopened. - China got through the pandemic with 1/4 the death rate as the US. - For most of the pandemic, life was much more normal in China than the US. China eliminated the virus by April 2020, and was able to keep it out of the country for about two years, meaning that society nearly fully reopened.
