"Evil CEE CEE PEE is trying to genocide bedbugs! Free bedbugs, revolution of our times!"

What do you mean? Would they try to dust off their zero covid policy?

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

What I mean is that we would never hear the end of it and years later people would still be saying of anywhere in China that it's crawling with these pests.

Probably if they decided to assertively solve the matter they'd provide free extermination services and temporary clean housing (for the day or two it takes to do a clean extermination) for affected households and use the data of which addresses have used the service to map out infestation sources and clear them.

(for the day or two it takes to do a clean extermination)

A thorough extermination actually takes months between two extensive treatments to make sure all the eggs (which are staggeringly resilient) were caught between both treatments.

If it were that easy, this would have been solved everywhere already. A day or two is almost certainly not enough, you also have to do adjacent apartments (whose inhabitants probably aren't going to be very happy, especially if they have to leave for the fifth time), your map can show that it affects like every other building (especially when it's a large apartment block), the temporary housing is at risk of becoming infested too, which will make people fear being there, etc.

It actually sounds a lot like zero covid - simple on paper, you try it, you find out it doesn't really work, and then you're left with the choice to either change strategy or try to go harder and cram it through regardless.

Either that, or they would weld the people inside of their own apartments while they raise the temperature to 118° for 90 minutes.

Problem solved! Congratulations citizen, plus five to your social media score. You're now allowed to buy hot dogs from 7-Eleven.

the article would imbue it with sentiments about government confidence and legitimacy. since it's France (ignore the enormous popular uprisings against this government in recent years) it's simple a 'political row' unrelated to the things people have been violently complaining about for years

You guys gotta get over your victim complex.

Then what? China does worse. Like kidnapping and murdering people for their religion or for speaking against the dictator. Hexbear needs to be defederated from everywhere. They are a bunch of pro genocide, ultra nationalist russia and china fascists

WTF are you talking about? What kind of deranged Alex Jones level conspiracy crap is this? I bet you have absolutely nothing to back it up.
