Well… The EU further increasing their regulations and punishments on US mega corps would be welcome. Official programs for medical tourism would also be nice, even in countries without universal healthcare the costs are cheaper even with a round trip flight to another continent
We also have a very impulsive and narcissistic manchild about to return to the white house. He’s deeply insecure and likes to project - if figures mock and laugh at him publicly enough from the right angle, he’ll respond. He’s a wildcard so it’ll be like hearding cats, but in the absurdist state of the country it could actually help us
Or it can be as simple as treating us like oppressed victims. The US as the land of freedom and opportunity is an image that holds us back… We’re not very free and we have very few opportunities (unless you’re rich). Chipping holes in that facade really gets to some people
We might be the largest military and economic power, but we’re largely brainwashed by optics, and so that’s a weak spot that can be exploited
The country does not.
A batshit sliver of people do. One of them just happens to be appointed to the Department of Health and Human Services.
This is not a majority stance.
If the result is the same does the distinction matter?
Exactly. Viruses could care less if you’re a lunatic or not.
Yes. It means we’re in distress and need help
Help from who? What would that look like?

The country had a chance to show that though. None of this is surprising.
