gollark: I generally want less, but pandemic control is somewhat hard to do outside of governments with how things currently work.
gollark: Arguably, people infecting you with viruses infringes on your rights.
gollark: Fine. I think it's reasonable to have governments remove some rights in some situations, then.
gollark: I think that if governments had actually been competent with initial containment, it wouldn't have been necessary to do lockdowns; given that they were useless, they were probably the least bad solution.
gollark: I was mostly complaining about their specific reasoning there (it is not very sensible, inasmuch as basically no possible bad event is *guaranteed* but ignoring the possibility of them is quite bad for you), but I don't agree with the rest of what they said either, so thing.
