friend with all respect i understand the sentiment of advocating masking for social accountability to an ongoing pandemic and i see that you're coming from a place of valid built up hurt and fear and anger from feeling this way for 3 years, but honestly your level of nastiness towards ppl not masking 24/7/365 is outrageous

covid is with us. it comes in waves and there's so much uncertainty in how to respond at this point even for chronically ill and immunocompromised people that it's wildly presumptive to act like everyone who's not wearing a mask is an apathetic enemy who doesn't value human life. who should kill themself. listen to yourself are you okay

hey I appreciate you taking the time to send this message.

the tags I left on that post were not at all meant literally but I shouldn't have said it in the first place. this is the only space I can vent abt covid safety and I do tend to use pretty negative, harsh, nd emotionally charged language when I do so. going forward, I'll tone it down and try to be more mindful of the nuances involved.

I lost pretty much all my friends on the issue of covid safety early in the pandemic and been indescribably lonely/isolated thru all of it, so I have a hard time keeping my emotions in check when i talk about it online.
