I just listened to @SciFri. I’m really getting tired of hearing from people who can start with the current clusterfuck and calmly talk about it. Yes! I know that that is exactly what they/we have to do. But, it is profoundly depressing for me to hear the “optimists” who are featured who don’t start out with:
“THE most ignorant, psychopathic idiot savant ever to attain power in the history of the USA... DID this to us”. Then I'll be ready to listen to reason.
I'm not happy about the slow and disorganized roll out of the life saving vaccines. And even though, an ardent critic of the crazy and false "zero sum game" that supposes that everything good that happens to someone else is something bad that happens to me; I still can't dispel the idea that:
"Everything that I can get for me" doesn't end up being
something not so good for them. So, I'll not jump into any vaccine lines.
So. I am happy for every single person who gets a
vaccine (even the line jumpers). I will try to not think about which one of those shots that I
didn't get might end up in me dying. I am a firm believer in the idea
that when I'm dead; I will not know it.
I am also an ardent pessimist. I have always expected to die from this pandemic. If I don't; I'll consider it a triumph of something...
If I do, I won't know that I was right all along.
Off all the things wrong with t****, I believe that his total
adherence to the "zero sum" was his worst attribute. From that,
all inability of empathy flows. Oh, and ignorance and stupidity.... but where
does one stop?
