"This isn't going to work until the whole world becomes a better place."

Man, this line truly encapsulates my feelings trying to talk reason with a certain segment of my country's (USA) population in recent years. It was especially bad during the pandemic when so many people were trying to tell me how mRNA vaccines are evil when I have years of experience working on them professionally prior to the pandemic. Eventually, I couldn't deal with it anymore and left my social media profiles behind me and just switched to full lurker mode. That was, until lemmy anyways...

@wjs018 @[email protected] It truly is a mood which is probably why it struck me so hard too. The pandemic showed me the cruelty of people was far greater than I had ever expected. It's scary how folks so quickly ignore experts in their fields too.
