One of many bells that can never be unrung for me is learning how many people rank not feeling a 'negative emotion' over not risking harm to others. 'Masks remind me people are dying and that feels bad, so we should never see them even if masking reduces those deaths'
I posted it as a quote post of
Lee (
leer)'s post saying:
[Most articles where the author complains about Covid safety boil down to "I love thinking of myself as a compassionate person and the constant reminders that I am selfish are stressful."]
I expected at least 1 negative reaction as it passed out of my circle but it currently sits at 30 reposts and 94 likes with only people being nice. I know that isn't a lot for some people and that at least my neighborhood in Bluesky is pretty leftist, but maybe my fear of the internet turning on me if I attract any attention needs to be retuned or at least adjusted per site
