gollark: Unless they had another one in the last few months.

gollark: COVID-19?

gollark: Yes, they really managed the pandemic well in China by trying to ignore it/cover it up and hoping it would go away.

gollark: I like authoritarian governments, but only if they magically make everything work better with no problems and never cause problems for me or anyone else I know.

gollark: Doesn't that demonstrate that being more authoritarian and not having democracy does NOT automatically make a place good, if you don't like Singapore?
