Americans aren't getting any lockdowns in the next 4 years regardless of any pandemic.

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 12 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

It won't be the pandemic it will be curfews when Trump enacts Marshall Law to combat the "dangerous brown people" in our cities.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 hours ago

That Marshall guy sounds like a dick

[–] humble_pete_digger@lemm.ee 4 points 11 hours ago

I think GOP won't go along

[–] douz0a0bouz@midwest.social 124 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh we’re getting lockdowns alright, just not related to anything the WHO will recommend.

[–] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 27 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Remember how ok conservatives were about the parts of covid you could be racist about? Yeah they're more or less going to do that but just those parts and probably unrelated to a virus.

[–] anindefinitearticle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Curious to know what you mean here.

What parts of a virus could they find to be racist about?

[–] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

A lot of people blamed Asians conceptually for Covid, everything from saying it came from eating dogs to the idea of the Chinese government making it on purpose.

And the parts that inconvenienced them.

If NY was locked down with refrigerator trailers full of the dead, that’s fine. If Dallas has the same, fuckit, we’re going to Applebee's.

There’s a serious level of chauvinism to their ideological club.

What about the woke mind virus pandemic?

/s

[–] ryan213@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago

Maybe the brain worm one.

How many lives have to be sacrificed for them to understand?

Rookie numbers

They understand already

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Only those in red states who vote trump

Oh we'll get lockdowns

Anyone who's even looks like the people of the country where the first case is identified will be locked down... in concentration camps.

The only nice thing in America is that states can make their own laws; when the bird flu pandemic starts, sane states will institute rules to deal with it, they don't need to wait for the federal government

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This. Federalism is such a blessing

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Literally the only blessing with America; I'd say the other one is freedom of religion, but they're trying to get rid of that

[–] Hylactor@sopuli.xyz 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Only just now?

We've had freedom of religion perhaps, but never freedom from religion. Christian gobbledygook is baked into America's DNA, and deviation from that has always resulted in a paddling.

Take Trump for example. A dyed in the wool contrarian. The walking talking embodiment of cutting off ones nose to spite their face. Refuses to acknowledge any authority but his own, often at the hazard of himself and others. And even he feigns to bend the knee to religion, and play act at being a Christian. That's how truly compulsory it is.

Oh no, they have been trying for a very long time.
