I think you and me are similar in political mindset...Vecna wrote: ↑Wed Mar 17, 2021 12:07 pmAlso, today is election day in the netherlands. Polls predict that our population does not understand the concept of judging the current government for their failures with your vote.
Our government probably handled the issue concerning facemasks probably just as poorly as trump did. Our country has had a bloody curfew for 3 months now. Even though they have reopened elementary schools and those are now responsible for a significant portion of the spread, they continue doing a poor job on vaccination efforts, which still mainly focus on elderly people while the health sector staff still has not even been fully vaccinated.
I guess we should salute them though. Keeping our country in quarantine is a creative solution to a bigger problem, and probably the only way were ever going to get anywhere halfway to meeting climate goals, since their other policy seems to indicatee they dont really care.
And to be fair, not many countries 'got it right' with COVID. The notable exception I know of is Iceland, but when your country only is ~300k people, it's easy to not FUBAR that shit up.
