You don’t get to choose the moral high ground and have fun at the same time, otherwise everyone would do it. If these kinds of conversations fulfill you then your high ground has been worth it!
You suffer now because you’re afraid of death later. I enjoy my time now because I know death comes for us all.
- triceratops 6y agoI didn't choose my "moral high ground". I'm just following the laws around social distancing and travel restrictions. Which were enacted in response to people choosing fun over doing the right thing voluntarily. "I enjoy my time now because I know death comes for us all." Translation: I gotta have my fun because who cares if other people die or are inconvenienced.
- karpierz 6y agoThe choice you're being presented is not: 1. Shelter in place, -0.1% chance of death 2. Go out and have fun, +0.1% chance of death But it's actually: 1. Shelter in place, -0.1% chance of death for everyone around you 2. Go out and have fun, +0.1% chance of death for everyone around you You are choosing to put other people at risk because it makes you happy. It's the same as drunk driving; convenient for you but a risk for everyone. Just because you didn't hit anyone this time doesn't mean it's not selfish and irresponsible.
