I think masks and distance explain the difference between AZ death rates and death rates in less mask resistant states.
That is, going mask-optional and opening restaurants cost you about 4000 dead.
Other NPI are different questions, with different answers. Opening open air dining was much lower cost, and opening parks was probably beneficial.
It’s also hard to tell if you’re intentionally so myopic, or if that’s just a reflection of your struggle to ‘adult’ in the real world.
Want to make the world a better place? You can start by making yourself a better person... it’ll help with those relationship struggles as well.
Being nice no longer makes for a better America. People like you have tolerated these magaty Q conspiracy theorists for years, and look where it’s gotten you. Well, it’s not going so well for them now that enough people don’t play nice anymore.

Yeah that is a bit of a stretch.
Utah has been far more open vs AZ. When AZ had restaurants closed, my buddies were hanging out up there having cold beers.
They have slightly more cases per million vs AZ, but substantially less deaths.
NM a state you praised has about the same cases per mil as CA, but not much lower deaths per million vs AZ...and much higher vs CA.
Cases per million and deaths per million do not necessarily work in tandem.
Nor of course does masks and distance and closing. I present to you CA vs TX and FL as 3 of our largest states.
If it were as simple as distance/masks/closing the data would clearly show a difference between the various states. It doesn't. Nor does it on a country by country basis.

Tolerance- “the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with.”
‘People like you’ need to learn how to ‘adult’, it requires tolerance. It does not mean one has to condone such behavior. Maybe you confuse the two like you do with equality and equity.
Being a better person always improves the world by at least one and ideally more by example.
It’s ok. I tolerate your angsty nihilism, but don’t condone it. One day you’ll lean to ‘adult’.
Wow! 31% seems pretty generous. I would have guessed lower.

We don't need “nice”. We need a leader that puts our nation first. Like Trump. Remember when Mexico and Canada ran their mouths about Trump? You don’t hear them anymore, do you? Trump revised NAFTA and reminded them who daddy is. But you spineless liberals can bend old grandpa Joe over for the oncoming train all the world leaders are going to run on his senile ass. But you ladies can sit around and cry to each other about how we took the high road.

Here you go @N00B. It doesn’t matter how incompetent, how terrible, how much it hurts even their own best interests, trumpanzees refuse to acknowledge it. All they understand is being a**holes. They will never stop until they are too humiliated to talk like this in public. He probably is, but s**tbag losers like him need to be reminded constantly about how dumb they are. How they are losers. How it is over for their racist, misogynistic, homophobic ways.
Sadly "nice" is seen by many in government as a tool of foreign policy. "Nice" is what NATO, the UN, and other 2-3 letter international agencies prefer so we can line their pockets and fund their frivolous expeditions across the globe. They need us to be nice so they can blow smoke up our 4th point of contact and make us feel good about funding some program that hasn't worked for 30 years. So hang on to your seats, we are going to be nice for the near future. We will host heads of states via zoom, grip and grin, and write checks - so much winning. Gubment at it's finest.

What much of the world likes, the Dems like, and many Rs like is the idea of getting together to "talk" and create meaningless resolutions or treaties. Things that have no enforcement mechanisms, etc. Things however they can go back and say to their sheep we had a productive meeting. Nothing gets done, but you see it is the process that matters most. The meetings, saying nice things, etc.
None of the nations in the Paris treaties have done their part. The US without being in it has reduced emissions. But I guess we need to join a toothless treaty so when our peeps go to Europe they can say he we are in this together. What about China and India? They don't count despite China increasing emissions steadily.
NATO? For decades our leaders have asked the Euro nations to step up and pay more. They ask and the Euros say no. Trump pushes it and makes some of them pay more and he is derided.
We have had 50 plus years of saying peace in the Middle East is tied to the Palestinian issue and that other countries will not recognize Israel until that happens. That has been the gold standard in the US, Canada and Europe in dealing with the issue. Watch the vid below regarding Kerry. This is the type of thinking permeating our Gov and the Euros for decades regarding Israel and the Middle East.
<a href=" ">September 17, 2020</a></blockquote>
What then happens? The US deals directly with various Arab governments and lo and behold Israel now has deals with 4 of the countries.
The idiots who cheer the closure of the Keystone Pipeline? Most want us to move to electric cars, etc and soon. What pray tell will power these cars? Oh yeah, fossil fuels. We would need to build a lot more plants to power these electric cars. These plants will need some type of fossil fuel. People seem to forget that "minor" detail. By the way anyone like the idea that with a stroke of a pen, one person can put thousands of people out of work?
And it goes on.
We can live in fantasy world were guys can play in womens sports because it isnt fair that they can't. Or we can deal with the world as it is on that issue and a range of other political and economic issues.
Look at CA. Essentially a one party state. A state that is for the "little guy". And yet what are the policies coming out? Higher gas prices, higher food costs, higher fees, higher property taxes, higher vehicle taxes, restrictions on new construction of housing which means higher prices. All of those things affect low income / middle class people adversely. And yet people mindlessly vote for these people because they seem cool, and when they give a speech they claim to want to help the little guy. And yet their policies make life far more expensive for the little guy.
These are the same idiots who instead of giving out the vaccine to the most vulnerable, start making plans to pass out the vaccine based on race, etc in order to be more equitable. WTF?
Then you heard the stuff, the world doesn't respect the US with T as Prez. As if people worry about this on a daily or monthly basis. Hell most people cannot identify exactly where most countries are in the world anyway. But will dutifully repeat the mantra...we are less respected.
Most of our "leaders" are economically illiterate. Economics wise if you spotted them the C and the T, they still couldn't spell CAT. Case in point the proponents of the Green New Deal.

One dimensional thinking. We need bad assess but we also need diplomacy. This position reminds me of how Marines tend to think that Airmen are useless non-hackers that wear a fancy post office uniform. We need both.

City of San Francisco Sues Its School District for Not Even Having a Plan to Reopen Schools
“This is hurting the mental health of our kids and our families.'

By the way they voted to change the name of this school and 40 some others. When they re-name it, I wonder how many extra languages they will put on the sign. Got to virtue signal inclusiveness eh?
No doubt balance is required, not arguing that. The dollars spent and national treasure invested over the last 20 years show that the balance is not in our favor
Any US service member who's served in vacation destinations all over the world the last 15 years clearly understands what the Air Force brings to the fight, even Marines. Even though at times, they struggle to understand it. That is to be expected (I say it tongue in cheek, having shared many a foxhole with Marines over the years).
Diplomacy is a shell word used by career politicians to line their own pockets and kiss babies.
All true. And yet, despite that, you lost Georgia 3 times in a row.
It’s almost as though you lose votes when you spend 4 years advertising yourself as the nation’s asshole.
