Are Americans the dumbest people on earth?

I think using one’s own limited perspective to determine what is idiocy is in of itself idiocy. I’m not the judge. I never will be

Fauci and the CDC didn’t want masks to run out at hospitals. We simply weren’t ready, it is sad that you can’t come back later as a public official and explain the reasoning behind outright lying about mask efficacy, due to how many people absolutely don’t trust any expert, but it doesn’t change anything. America has done an excellent job vaccinating compared to most and we aren’t top 10 in per capita covid deaths, despite extreme poor health and comorbidities

Obviously we could’ve done better, but I don’t think it’s obvious that we’re fucked due to our cultural decline, etc. from our perspective it seems that way, but I think every generation has always said that about succeeding generations

The masks were invoked to "flatten the curve" so that we "don't overwhelm the emergency services industry", remember? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
