A Senate committee voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress and refer him to the Justice Department for potential prosecution over his refusal to answer questions at a hearing last week focused on his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Under no circumstance should you start diagnosing large swaths of the population with a mental disorder without proof. You definitely shouldn’t use a mental health disorder as a catchall insult (seriously, that’s how new slurs are born). And you most assuredly shouldn’t be labeling people with ODD when there is more evidence that have issues with defying authority, seriously can not overstate how much they ride their conservative leader’s collective dicks, rather than the opposite.
TL;DR don’t use mental health disorders in order to church up your insults. It makes you sound like a massive ass and kind of demonstrates that you’re not a safe person. Any one who grew up diagnosed with ODD will not trust you and with good fucking cause.
Yeah, you’re just an unsafe person. People aren’t their diagnosis, my guy. You need to expand your circle to include people who scare you, cause you’re xenophobic as fuck.
To be fair, the stay-home orders and all that REALLY screwed over lots of small businesses. But the bigger issue there is the expectation that the US economy is predicated on tiny margins (saw a post around that time that said we work paycheck-to-paycheck for a paycheck-to-paycheck business, with a paycheck-to-paycheck landlord, that all answer to a paycheck-to-paycheck government and pretend that this is all sustainable). If basic needs were provided apart from employment, then I highly doubt that people would’ve been as angry about stay-at-home orders. That and the fact that “it’ll be 14 days, folks!” began to stretch into months.
There’s also the fact that, in the US, there is no guarantee that a government order will ever be rescinded. Case in point: the theater we all have to participate in when we try to fly.
since when are businesses important? if they can’t handle stay at home orders and fail, that’s just the market they pretend to love. seriously. fuck capitalists. pandemic safety for humans trumps people thinking businesses are important.
solution: get good. or maybe running a business is not for you.
no. i am arguing that a black swan event taking out a business is fine if it means that the humans are given the proper attention. but instead we got “save the businesses” rules and whatnot.
businesses are not more important than humans even if they hire humans they’ll then need to fire because they failed. this is because businesses are designed to exploit already.
There’s a way that businesses can mitigate risks of low-probability, high-impact events. That’s called insurance, and it’s not so expensive that it requires “significant extra profit” to pay for it.

In an economy based even the slightest minor disruption will result is a significant collapse.

You’re arguing that, to buffer against a black swan event, businesses should be making significant extra profit.
I think you’re creating a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation.

Having most of your customer base die in a pandemic would’ve also screwed the businesses. The only math was “short term gain” vs “human life.”
That’d be at least partly because of all the fucktards going against sensible advice for “muh freedumbs!” That really stretched things out a lot.
The only reason corps and now the government are paycheck to paycheck is because about 1000 people decided they wanted it that way

It’s almost as though there are downsides to operating finely-tuned just-in-time supply chains without contingencies being taken into account.
Resiliency isn’t free, so beancounters are always resisting any change to improve it.
