gollark: The US government, and large business owners and whoever else ("capitalism"), don't really want people to die in large numbers *either*, they're:- still *people*- adversely affected by said large numbers dying, because: - if lots of people die in the US compared to elsewhere, they'll look bad come reelection - most metrics people look at will also be worse off if many die and/or are ill for a while - many deaths would reduce demand for their stuff, and they might lose important workers, and more deaths means a worse recession
gollark: That is stupid on so many levels. Is it meant to be some homepathic thing, where the blood is obviously even more worserer if they dilute it?
gollark: Why did YouTube recommend this to me‽ Why?
gollark: Governments seem to now be making it some sort of ridiculous competition to have 5G as soon as possible even with no immediate uses, which is annoying.
gollark: That does make some sense, I guess. But hardly seems like it requires specifically 5G.
