lnxw48a1's status on Saturday, 18-Mar-2023 00:50:46 UTCI've read elsewhere that international estimates show #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/china" rel="tag">China</a></span>'s population in decline for years already, but now it appears even their official numbers reflect it. <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-64897827" title="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-64897827" rel="nofollow external noreferrer" class="attachment" id="attachment-289930">https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-64897827</a> [www bbc co uk] <br /> <br /> This could be bad news for peace and stability. A nation where the revered and respected elders are too numerous for their workforce to support? In other lands, raising the retirement age and reducing benefits to force able-bodied retirees back into the workforce have been tried. Can China do this?2023-03-18T00:50:46+00:00LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864}lnxw48a1: I recently had to ride to a few offices with another techpeep. I, of course, was masked. He, on the other hand, was not. I don't recall how the discussion got there, but we were talking about shutting down schools due to the #COVID-19 pandemic and he said that "we knew from the beginning that it basically did not affect children and that we didn't need to do that". I pointed out that we did not know any such thing, and that despite generally less severe effects, those kids live with parents, grandparents, and other adults ... sending them into germ factories unmasked (as he'd have wanted) would have been a death sentence for many of the adults in these kids' lives. Then I mentioned that most schools have ventilation issues and many are in buildings that date back 50-100 years. (And in fact, one of the facilities we were supporting was in an old school that was probably built in the late 1940s or early 1950s. In this case, it was an area of small towns where almost everyone under 50 had left to find jobs, so most of the schools closed.) He insisted that all schools had done ventilation upgrades in 2020 as the pandemic spread across the nation. At that point, I understood that this person likely ingested too much propaganda from a certain "news" channel, much of which is probably originally designed in Moscow, so I stopped responding. He was probably a normal or nearly-normal person until the fear that #2019-nCoV was a plot by #China and the #Democrats to displace #Trump came about. I don't have any indication that this is what he believed / believes, but I think a lot of #anti-vaxxers and #anti-maskers started there and moved on to their extreme beliefs afterward.

He was not a citizen and AFAIK, was not in US territory when the leaks were collected or published. Now, I could see if they pressured countries where he holds citizenship or was physically present to enforce their own laws, but I do not agree that the US should seek to prosecute him. I don't classify him as a journalist, since he doesn't seem to publish secrets from other countries such as #Russia or #China. It seems to be mostly #USA. So it _is_ plausible to consider #Wikileaks as a non-governmental foreign intelligence service, in which case, I think every government reserves the right to strike back. So, as you can see, I'm conflicted, with my primary view being that the USA should not be pursuing Assange, but rather the leakers who served as his sources. (As a federal employee, I'm not allowed to read anything that leaked, but from what I've seen others write, Manning was very careless about leaking, with some documents identifying undercover agents who had nothing to do with the crimes that were revealed. So this wasn't really whistleblowing, as the leaked materials covered a lot more than waste, fraud, abuse, and crime. The restrictions also make it difficult to form any kind of intelligent opinion.)

In particular, in both China and Italy, the overwhelming majority of reported infections have happened in a single region of the country, so "19 days past the 100th case" of #2019-nCoV means something quite different when most of the cases are in a single subregion of a country than when they are fairly well spread out. It is much easier for a given number of cases to overwhelm the medical capacity of a single region than it is to overwhelm the entire country. (And overwhelming an area's medical capacity, according to "flatten the curve", makes all the difference.) If anything, Durden makes a case he did not argue: that the pattern of (known) #COVID-19 infections in the #USA is different enough that the country's experience should not be compared to either #China or #Italy.
