The species has PTSD. I think people are too traumatized still to talk about it. I know I feel anxious on the verge of a panic attack when I see someone out and about wearing a mask. I assume that we all have some version of this anxious reaction. Plus, it's still circulating and mutating so discussing it as a past event feels like a jinx.

Even in medical offices, masks are rare and there's little talk of it. Spent 12 days in the hospital and not a word about it.

This is common in history. Even after the Black Death, where 1/3 of Europe perished, and some towns saw a half to three-quarters of their population die, there is almost no mention of it by writers of the time. But the effects were there. Change came slowly and “invisibly with time.”

Depending on your glass: Half full: proof that humanity is resilient and forward thinking, we just move on Half empty: we’re experiencing some serious Orwellian doublethink

There was a point about a year in where if someone brought up covid people would start switching topics pretty quickly or answer with an impatience in their voice. I thought discussion would fade off like a distant memory but it was more people got so damn sick of rehashing the same conversations and what ifs.

I think we talked about it enough lol. But we certainly didn’t seem to have learned any lessons from it. We’re not ready for the next one by any means

It gets mentioned in my circles at least a handful of times a week. But thankfully nobody dwells on it. Recent uptick given the huge number of summer covid cases and new vaccine doses on the horizon. Might be more relevant as a conversation topic if you have kids or care for elders.

It’s because it became impolite to talk about due to politicization. People don’t like talking about guns,abortion, or immigration because people have such strong feelings on those issues. Covid/covid vaccines became yet another taboo topic within the American discourse. People can’t agree to disagree anymore, because to do so would be saying “I disagree with your morals and ipso-facto I disagree with your moral personal moral integrity. Covid hasn’t gone (especially long covid) but everyone is exhausted politically from that era still. At least that’s my two cents as someone who compulsively consumes media and journalism from both ends of the spectrum (and everything in between) Farcaster is one of the only corners of the internet where people aren’t screaming virtually at each other over politics. Hope it stays that way during the election cycle. CC @dwr.eth well done on cultivating this.

I know... Sometimes I think back and it was wild that we went through that. Now we're back to our regular lives as if it had never happened... Except it f'ed up the economy.

I think about it constantly. I happened to take flights in the middle of the pandemic and lockdowns, and it deeply impacted me to see that everyone was staying at home everywhere I looked. Another thought that struck me was how distant the scenes of people clapping on balconies in China had seemed, and how quickly that reality came to us in Europe.
