The US gov’s misinformation that we can act like covid’s over is mainly so we’re good servants for capital, and that’s lib shit. That’s mostly what I got.

    Sorry if I directed my frustrations at you. they are actually more general frustrations with the entire situation and I tend to get a little to worked up.

    COVID has been taking a toll on me and my family because of various health concerns that are exacerbated by us getting COVID beginning of this year. Because of that I definitely get a little defensive and snippy.

    Honestly, I apologize for coming at you like that, I definitely understand your sentiment and recognize your understanding of the larger situation. Its no excuse for me snapping at you, but I want to acknowledge my error.

      No worries, man. I very much appreciate and accept the apology. I’m sorry to hear that Covid has been hard on you and your family.

      I still get worked up about some things, like antivaxxers. Just found out one of my best friends is an antivaxxer and doesn’t have the vaccine. I had no idea and I never asked him before because we’re usually pretty much on the same page and he’s very reasonable, so it came as a shock. Kinda had to step back to avoid an overreaction that might damage the friendship because I know I can be harsh, and I just hit strongly by the flu (not Covid) through an antivaxxer so I’m extra pissy. So, I get it. Hope you and your family are safe and well this holiday season, comrade.

        Yeah that’s a tough pill to swallow. I had a friend like that as well, but it was a lot easier to cut ties because he was also a racist transphobe.

        Hope you and yours stay healthy too!
