I’m consistently impressed by the new forms of denialism about the ongoing disaster of a pandemic response in the US (of which pointing at the death rate discrepancy was a recent, popular genre). I understand that people are fundamentally irrational, but now that many countries have gotten the disease to a manageable state, so much psychic energy in this country seems devoted to denying the validity of their approaches and coming up with new reasons why it won’t actually be so bad here, contrary to all evidence.

Agree, though for many Americans it doesn’t take too much energy since they don’t pay any attention to what’s going on in other countries.

Absolutely amazingly clear article which I’d sum up as we are screwed sub-headline bring that we had a path and we failed to follow through and it’ll be worse than the last wave now.
