          I think it was Argentina that is in a constant state of fake dictators that is bleeding the country dry. Literally nobody is fixing it. Humans are greedy.

      Agreed. Lots of people in the US praised the chinese rapid response to covid and how it was able to staunch the spreads.

      But like…they welded people’s door shut. They threatened normal citizens with bodily harm my guys. Being “good at covid” was a side effect of their one-party rule that we criticize every other year.

        Authoritarianism is highly effective at making things happen, it’s just really REALLY bad at human rights violations since anything that gets in the way of the state is an issue.
