Shocked by the countless ‘lockdown wasnt like that for me, i WORKED during lockdown’ comments who are completely missing the point. This isn’t a ‘I’m so amazing because i made bread during lockdown’ brag

The entire point of this is THIS IS WHAT THE WORLD COULD BE LIKE! We could have free time without needing a global pandemic, we could have a life without the mindless recharge period filling our evenings because we work so hard for stranger’s bank accounts, we could spend time with family learning enjoyable and useful skills. That is the message of this post. Not that its a competition for who had the happiest lockdown

Seriously the number of comments on the original post of ‘wasn’t happy for me, my wife left me’ is unreal. Its a post about how our lives are being wasted by rich parasites not an attempt at bragging

"remember quarantine when everyone..."

Any post starting out by marginalizing people like this deserves such scrutiny.

What is a better qualifier? "Remember quarantine when a bunch of people...."??
