My girlfriend and I were planning on going camping today, but my girlfriend's white suburban middle class parents wouldn't let us, saying it was 'dangerous'. Both her and I agree that white middle class people are way too afraid of everything for some reason, but I don't know why. Any ideas?

    Covid has really blown the lid off for me. A year of social isolation had definitely taken its toll. I can still swing human interaction, but it went from easy and smooth, to anxiety inducing. I can see how living in what amounts to permanent social isolation in a suburb can cause that sort of defensive psychosis.
