Wow. Thread aged...poorly. One million deaths, and this is just getting started, folks. You know I hate to be the party pooper, but baby, I was born this way.
The good news is science still works, the bad news is the country is under attack from without and within by people who want to make you believe in something else.
Well, at least I got my generator and ethanol production up and running. If I can do that, the rest of you might survive. Good luck with who you get your science from. ><

To the point that its hard to say how much influence they have had vs how much of it is just them going at it with each other.

Also your snark is dumb the Culture between Perth and Sydney isn't all that much different despite the fact that they are many miles away from each other.
I didn't say just different but "very different"
Here is a fun question what represents Californian culture more:
San Fransico or Los Angelas?
These two cities are so different that from the outside you might even think that they are from two different countries.
But both are often painted as the cultural center of California

How that geography has created a bunch of different cultures inside of the US.
State to State have very different vibes and heck even city to city inside a state can be vastly different.
The real thing is the divide in the US of Rural vs Urban is typically bigger than a lot of people understand.
Especially since Rural can actually be fairly remote.
A favorite expression of mine:
In Europe 100 miles is a long way, in the US 100 years is a long time.

Its a major pain in the arse for me though as i wanted to go to New York in December as Xmas in NY can be awesome for a limey.
From my limited experiance the US is as different from coast to coast as Europe which is one of the reasons I almost emigrated there.
Its going to be very interesting to see how the virus is controlled in that enviroment with states doing different things.

I think the UK really screwed up by showing charts comparing death rates of all the other countries as its so hard to compare given the time of first infection and population density ect.. and even how it came into each country.
It looked good early on but now we have taken over all the other European countries it looks really bad.

From what I can tell COVID has been an animal sickness for a while, and the concern for crossover is one of the reasons most countries won't allow you to purchase Beef Lung. So far it seems that you have to actually ingest an infected and undercooked animal part(such as chicken of the cave lung) in order to contract it from an animal source. Not entirely sure why, but I'll go with it.

Remember it wasn't my country that put one of it's own citizens in a re-education camp because he blamed a Muslim for attacking him on a bridge. Seriously your country is fucked up, I'll take Trump any day over the forced serfdom England has.
Have a nice day .
