I can't post on his comment as it's been flagged. Sorry to hijack your comment. I can relate where you are coming from. Protecting your livelihood, providing for your family, that would get me so friggen worked up, and I can't even imagine the stress, I just can't even begin to. The worst part about prison is the failing your family aspect, so I can imagine how frusting, trapped feeling anything like that and it being outside of your control, through no fault of your own. And seeing that humanizes that this isn't just financial numbers, those financial numbers represent people that are deeply suffering from the lockdowns, those financial numbers represent a human cost. For me, I listened to my mother on the phone worry as she spent her last days in fear because she was dying of cancer and chemo killed her immune system and she was in a no mask state. So it's understandable I might be pretty protective of her and her fears. Or my daughter that has an immune condition and might never be able to live normally now that COVID is a thing. I as a son, a father, hold on to some little sliver wanting to protect my mother, praying my daughter doesn't have to become some bubble girl. Wanting people to wear masks might be irrational, but it isn't out of maliciousness or wanting to hurt, but out of a sense of powerlessness to protect those I love. It's even harder because I am a libertarian who doesn't think the mandates provide enough benefit for the costs nor should they be mandates on a logical level, but hearing the fear in my mom's voice, multiplied by so many people, I just don't know. Their fear has a consideration aspect too. This is the sort of humanizing of others experiences that I think we need and I just don't see anywhere else on the internet right now.
