I don't know how to describe it but this post 2016 society has kinda broken me in a way that I can't describe. Yes, I get it, "Lol things have always been bad" blah blah blah, but this dystopian shit is something different. I think the combination of just seeing how comfortable people have become just being outright cruel and bigoted combined with the apathy and just flat out resignation of folks who may be decent, but they've just normalized all of this bullshit killed my youthful spirit.

The fact that there are so many self proclaimed progressives who have just accepted the talking point that "covid is over and everything is safe" while putting medically vulnerable people (and others) at risk by not taking precautions against Covid just showed me that it's not just centrists and conservatives who value convenience over liberation, it's a whole lot of y'all.
