Comment on Spray n Pray
kogasa@programming.dev 2 days agoThe calls to return to normalcy came at the height of pandemic related deaths and so we stopped testing, stopped reporting, and pretended the pandemic was over when it wasn’t. I will never forget when a large portion of the population decided the lives of the vulnerable mattered less than “normalcy.”

Again, I think those calls were coming from suburban and rural populations who weren’t hit as hard and probably could have gotten by with less restrictive measures than what was necessary in urban areas. People from the city don’t really understand that not everyone everywhere is packed together like sardines, but there’s no reason why the same degree of caution would be necessary in areas with a fraction of the population density.
Not everyone who disagreed with how things were handled was a trumper. I guess someone who’s never left the city wouldn’t be able to tell the difference though…

You write like you didn’t lose anyone in your life to the pandemic. Must be nice.

I did say I live in an area that wasn’t hit as hard due to being more suburban. Good reading comprehension.

Right. But my point was poor empathy on your part.
