So you were doing some exhaustive and tiresome devil’s advocate nonsense and/or are trying to dial back your ridiculously bad original take where you presented a strong centralized government response as some sort of scary nanny state that only the weak yearn for, and that you have a knee-jerk reaction about.
That’s rich coming from you, especially after your flag-humping session that started with this:
Or maybe you want a strongman who will protect you until they don’t.
The crumbling and neglected infrastructure and decaying social institutions of Freedomland are cool and good and no worse than the evil See See Pee because something something federalism and how that’s totally working out great promise guys for real guys
I was mentioning it in the context of the USA. I’ve been bringing up Trump as an example of a person in charge of the federal government who didn’t respond to requests from states for aid. During COVID, the federal government denied assistance to states that were politically against Trump. Putting all disaster response in the hands of the federal government could cause a similar case to happen in the future.
In this one case, but there is also the 90 tonnes of steel AI Weiwei straightened after the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake.
But your own this one case makes Burgerland superior to the See See Pee because that’s different!
I never said better.

I never said a strong centralized government was bad, just that it wouldn’t be tolerated in the current political framework.
You interpreted that as being bad.
You’re waffling and playing sophistic games that are not unlike and your political ideology seems to come from the same source.
Checks out.
Or maybe you just want someone to argue with.
