For goodness sake man, pull yourself together. You began this by insulting my friend and colleague and now want everyone to be nice to you. Stroll on.
Why doesn’t BlueSky ever catch on? It’s such a mystery… @greenmirandahere.bsky.social

Classic Bluesky post, thank you. Smug, sanctimonious, and a swear word too. Pops up in my notifications once a month or so and reminds me why I almost never bother with ridiculous Bluesky.
So your contention is we would have grown almost three times fast than Germany despite Covid. Why? How?
As an economist told me, it fails the basic sniff test: “If our GDP had increased an extra 6-8% since 2016, we would have grown by as much as 20%, far outpacing France's 11.5% and Germany's 5.5%, and not far short of the US 24.7%. I just don't believe that!”
Do you agree with it?

No, not nearly enough.
Broad spectrum of views!
You are quoting Led By Donkeys. Goodness, what a weird sanctimonious bubble Blue Sky is. No wonder it is struggling.
You will no doubt have followed the debate closely, and the various debunkings of the methodology. Or maybe not, being on this place. I recommend the work of @julianhjessop.bsky.social if you really want to get a handle on all this.
Around 4%?
No it wasn’t and no it wasn’t.
Of course not. That’s not how it works. Really.
