I had a similar conversation with a friend a few months back. She was totally for the shutdown where people were not allowed to operate their businesses. She chose to shut down her own business because it’s for the greater good and it was necessary. She thought of herself as being selfless, but it was not like she was even really sacrificing anything because she had been trying to get get out of her business for a year already, this was just her excuse.

She freaking still lives with her boyfriend in his parents home, and they have no kids, so no extra mouths to feed. She don’t have to worry about bills and mortgage like the rest of the “selfish” business owners who wanted to work.

I’m hating all these pompous people using this covid thing as virtual signaling when there are real people struggling. It definitely to opens your eyes up when some of these people turns out to be to your “friends”.
