(210 posts)65. Amazing Underconcern For Elderly Safety From Covid
Ive seen it often people carelessly inclined to expose the sick or elderly to COVID risk. They just dont get that it could be a death sentence. Sometimes its insensitivity in the name of inclusion or connection You should come to Johnnys birthday party, or, Ill be over with a pot of chicken soup. Meanwhile your doctor has told you that theres no way youd survive a brush with Covid, and dont let anyone outside your pod within 25 feet of you. Frustrating nonchalance. But its not malice, usually. BTW clinical depression often shows up as fatigue and shut-down. And I agree that not all Christians are bad people learned that a long time ago. You just cant blanket judge.

I don't identify as "christian" so not sensitive to this, but think the attacks are on Evangelicals.
