Only academics can be this unethical and stupid
Yaneer Bar-Yam sees only admiration in China’s lockdowns
Shanghai just finished a 2 month lockdown. They went all out and stopped the pandemic using a dynamic zero covid strategy, including both lockdown and mass testing. People are out in the street celebrating. They can do so without risk of infection or long covid. 1/
Two years after China carried out horrific draconian lockdowns and claimed they worked — and folks like Yaneer supported them — China again engaged in horrific draconian lockdowns and claimed they worked — and folks like Yaneer support them.
These are your academic superiors.
What an absolute fool.
Yaneer Bar-Yam is a special kind of crazy. He's not bought or lying, or merely out for notoriety, although that has something to do with it. He actually believes the shot he spouts.
