What makes their anecdote "emphasis" or "exaggeration", while yours is jut sharing?
If your anecdote is "boring" or a more normal representation, why share?
It seems like you want to fight to downplay the effects of covid, which is fine, but your approach is totally off.
- timr 4y ago> If your anecdote is "boring" or a more normal representation, why share? Because if we don't, the only people who will share will be the ones with scary stories. But indeed...why share any anecdote at all? They're pointless, except when used (as they usually are) to trigger emotions. I'm saying that there's a tendency for people to amplify the emotional stories, and ignore the boring ones.
