Chris, you acknowldge yourself that youāre notoriously bad at picking up on vibes. I was trying to let you know that offering unsolicited observations about mask-wearing when people post pictures of happy events is ā¦not helpful.
Chris, you seem to think I’m advocating for something Iām not.
Iām in favour of mask-wearing indoors.
But I donāt go around passing judgement on every picture I see of an indoor gathering. It doesnāt help.
If you think that anyone who disagrees with you is automatically an asshole, then I can understand why you feel such sadness at everyone elseās behaviour.
Me, Iād rather assume better of people.
Yes, Iām being defensive (because I found your judginess offensive).
Iām totally with you on mask-wearing.
But I donāt think that Kool-Aid Man-ing into peopleās photos will lead to behaviour change.
Pointing out the lack of mask-wearing in photos of concerts, weddings, dinners, and other happy events has a bit of an āall lives matterā vibe to itātechnically correct, but dickish.
Just point out a fact. People get mad about that.
Now, if you’re one of those people, then, yea, I guess I was judging you too.
ā also literally what you said.
Yes, I am judgy about people willfully endangering others.
ā literally what you said.
Itās time to end the suspenseā¦
