The US gov's misinformation that we can act like covid's over is mainly so we're good servants for capital, and that's lib shit. That's mostly what I got.

    Yes you are a lib, the hyperbole is humongous lib energy. No one said we are avoiding seeing friends and family, we are just more cautious with the setting.

    Come on, dude. I agree with the rest of what you are saying for the most part but now you are being the hyperbolic one.

    It is not excessive of me to ask if you are avoiding seeing friends and family when this was exactly the protocol called for at the height of the lockdowns and the pandemic. I did, in fact, avoid seeing friends and family indoors for a couple of years. But I've stopped avoiding seeing my friends and family for the most part, at this point. I'm just asking how rigorous people on here are still being with regards to Covid. I did say I still wear masks in certain settings but not in all settings, as I did before. And blaming circumstances while dealing with the material reality of the circumstances the best we can is, I think, not about having our cake and eating it too. Now you are having tremendous chud energy. 'oh, you critique capitalism yet you have a job and use an iphone. curious!' This is a collective effort and given that nothing is shut down and there is no recourse but to go in person for many things, including work, and that absolutely no one is wearing masks around me anymore that does impact the way an individual, even one in disagreement, will behave as a result. It happens with everything under capitalism.

        No worries, man. I very much appreciate and accept the apology. I'm sorry to hear that Covid has been hard on you and your family.

        I still get worked up about some things, like antivaxxers. Just found out one of my best friends is an antivaxxer and doesn't have the vaccine. I had no idea and I never asked him before because we're usually pretty much on the same page and he's very reasonable, so it came as a shock. Kinda had to step back to avoid an overreaction that might damage the friendship because I know I can be harsh, and I just hit strongly by the flu (not Covid) through an antivaxxer so I'm extra pissy. So, I get it. Hope you and your family are safe and well this holiday season, comrade.
