[...] the virus seems to be affecting young people in the United States more than it has in China. A report released last week by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that up to 20% of people hospitalized with coronavirus in the United States are between the ages of 20 and 44.
[...] "So far the demography definitely seems to be very different in the United States versus in other countries that saw this hit earlier,"
[...] In New York state, more than half of coronavirus cases -- 53% -- have been among young people between the ages of 18 and 49
From MSN:
Kentucky coronavirus party with group of young adults has left at least one person infected:
At least one person in Kentucky is infected after taking part at a "coronavirus party" with a group of young adults [...] The partygoers intentionally got together "thinking they were invincible" and purposely defying state guidance to practice social distancing [...] "This is one that makes me mad," the governor said. "We have to be much better than that."
And...From Slate:
A group of Kentucky partygoers recently attended a "coronavirus party." The event, which appears to be a pandemic-themed soiree, as you might imagine, was not a civic-minded effort to promote social distancing practices and best hand-washing practices, but a slap in the face to everyone else's collective efforts to not kill our parents and grandparents. The party mocked the virus, and the coronavirus gods were angry. One of the twentysomething attendees of the ill-advised gathering in the midst of a national emergency tested positive for the virus Tuesday.
Maybe I'm too old to get it, but it seems to me somewhat unwise to do this.

u took more of what "belongs to others", then russians ever did.

I think a huge part of the problem is the "belongs to others" concept. For Communism, the fruits of your labor allegedly belong to you no matter how distant they travel. But a billion peoples' lives didn't belong to themselves in practice. The various flavors of capitalism have a much saner grasp of property and ownership. When that is coupled with universal democracy, it works pretty well.

Please tell me you're posting from a cell phone.
That's a remarkably low content post. I don't think anyone has claimed that leadership is somehow independent of context. But I think there's a vast chasm between what Communist leadership was allowed to do and what was necessary for them to do. It's far better in a democratic society.

yeah, i was at work and used cell...
and also, yeah, look at the madness after 9/11... and that was not even a "war" on murican soil, just some random sabotage/jewish conspiracy.
if u count the change and look at all the problems communists inherited/got, and how emo and shit the people in those countries are, i am not surprised at the outcome.
bro, things are not as you think they are.
but in the end, what i say is irrelevant...
god bless trump and murica!!1!11!

As compared to?
I'm not either. But my lack of surprise is because Communists were in charge. Emo and shit goes with the belief system.

cmon man, u cant be this stupid.
when you project backwards, u cant assume that thigs start with fully developed identity...
the communists became what they became for reasos, they were mostly born out of 2 cells like evevry other motherfucker...
u were a serious threat to them, dropping 2 nukes... having enemys like you creates nightmares, yes?
by the way, we are all mortal humans in the end, not having 10 reincarnations in the package to act upon...

Had to be. There were something like 20-30 countries taken over by the Soviets prior to 1945 with several afterward. It was a growing empire. Then that bullshit stopped till Afghanistan.
So no time for Communism then.
