    False - State Sponsored Propaganda Spin fallacy.

    Anti-Vaxers - who are healthy - are not responsible for increased death rate.. to the contrary .. The vax has a higher risk of harm than "Covid" ..and this includes Delta when was 10 times more lethal.

    The Vax helps those with compromized immune system .. this group responsible for the higher hospitalization/death rate ..

    So .. while true for immune compromized anti vaxxers .. Pants on Fire false for the vast majority - the non immune compromized.

    Good old manichean way of thinking.

    "Everyone knows" isn't a source. is it possible that china cheated on those statistics ? Yes. Is it possible that's simply true ? Also yes.

    The thing is that we knew in the 80's that the soviet life expancy was going worse. If it's true it remain a success of china, and recognizing a success doesn't mean agreeing with its policy as a whole. It's not totally weird either, Lebanon which is a bankrupted state has, had in 2020 a higher life expancy. Algeria in 2020 too, it's the richest african country, but it's still quite poor.

    It's an important statistics because it says a lot about the general state of health of a population (drug, obesity), and can measure things that can't be measured with GDP.

    As if China doesn't lie about Covid deaths enough when satellite images had shown truck loads of bodies. Also, not to mention their lies about the Ugyar genocide. I wouldn't trust any statistic they promote regarding human life.

    Interesting you mentioned the "gander" considering the fact that you do not think it is as good for it as it is for the goose. You (your nation) are the root of virtually every war since the end of WWII yet you ignore that and turn to criticize the rest of the world. Get out of bed and do something useful.

    Are those the same satellites that recorded the "thousands upon thousands of WMD's" that were strewn all over the Iraki desert .... or have they been readjusted?
    "Also not to mention" your lies about the Tuskegee Experiment?
    I'm not saying that you should but the rest of the world can judge for themselves by the method of comparison and they will be shown to have been the smartest.

    It's almost a joke that you (pl.) are eager to defend the nation (USA) that is responsible for the greatest forms of human suffering in the past 80 years and - speaking about lies - is the worst offender in at least the past 60 years.

    Such a self reflective post but flogging Russian propaganda doesn't seem to be working^. China made Vlad wait and they are two authoritarian regimes. They didn't even commiserate together and lick each other's wounds.

    So i guess this is proof that lockdowns work.

    I suppose we should have welded people's door shut to keep them from going to resturants.

    Who are you talking to .... or about?
    What does that have to do with anything? I get the impression that you are playing "tit-for-tat" with your garage door >>

    You: I don't trust China because they did 'this' and they did 'that'.

    Reality: But you are pitting your accusations of China against the same (or worse) crimes of the US who also did 'this' and did 'that'.

    You: I don't care if the US did the same things because I trust the US, not China.
