I mean, no worries, we’re just chatting.

I’ve been spending a lot of time over on /r/zerocovidcommunity and it’s become very apparent that just getting people to mask isn’t the answer the either. There’s a pretty non-insignificant number of folks over there who are just chomping at the bit for an opportunity to abandon this new community they’ve found themselves forced into. They’ve gotten a taste of the alienation and abandonment that immunocompromised and disabled folks have been experiencing and rather than learning from it and seeking solidarity, they’re begging their politicians to realize they’ve made a mistake. They think they’ve been accidentally forgotten, their ignorance of capitalism and neoliberalism hiding from them that they’ve been abandoned to rot with the rest of the expendables.

Edit: forgot a word.
