I am not going to play this game mookie. Roland00 Send a noteboard - 05/05/2020 03:29:52 AM

I am self employed, I have not made barely any money for the last few months, and my father is in the hospital again. I am dropping the subject of all my pathos, all my sufferings and negative experiences of the last few months for I find it to be a sick twisted game where men try to 1 up each other instead of providing mutual care. It is toxic.

I will not share my most vulnerable and trying fears for I have a life of experiences of when I share them people criticize them not understanding they are kicking down. Why should I share what I love, and also what I fear when other people respond by trying to destroying it. It is about trust.

...

You are focused on your own pain. Well New York City has lost 1 in 600 people due to COVID, and they are still dying. If we did not due shutdowns other places would have similar death rates and it can still get 10 to 20x worse.

And it is not just death. How about permanent lung damage? How about heart and kidney problems as well.

If you want to complain, complain that Congress needs to actually past another bill and literally direct it at people.
