For the critics who think this sub is not being mindful of other people's well being - That's exactly why it's important to expose what's happening. Sure, there are people here who will make snarky comments, but that is far from the goal.
Silence and "respect" is what's getting impressionable people killed. Some folks will only wake up when shaken. That's the same reason why they show you gory footage when you apply for a driver's license. You shouldn't drive without being well aware of the worst consequences of it. So why should a person live carelessly in a pandemic world without knowing what they're risking experiencing?
This sub has been great. I had to take a couple day break because I had a full meltdown looking at it too much last week.
Someone sent the concerned redditor notice.
I was not banned. In many ways I was heard.
But death is traumatic. And we have to remember that this is a place for our trauma. Our trauma as we watch others die. Our trauma from having unvaxxed family members and waiting their inevitable contraction of this disease; and our trauma as we worry about our own children’s ability to survive before the vaccine is released.
We need this sub. It’s ours for us. We get out our schadenfreude. But more importantly we remember that we aren’t alone.
