I remember my brother suffering from depression because he just no way of getting out of his apartment

I remember people people dying and not being able to go meet/help them

I remember the working class suffering because they just couldn't work

I am not blaming anyone but it wasn't "singing and dancing" for most people except the most privileged

The ‘most privileged’ we’re throwing ‘Covid parties’. They were the ones pushing ahead in line for limited vaccines. They were the ones out at ski resorts while sick. They were the ones who denied Covid but went out and got Covid and then demanded treatment, putting more than necessary pressure on a limited and very strained emergency system.

I don’t think the home bodies are your enemy here.

Quarantine was a tough time for large majority people in my country

Everyone wasn't dancing and making bread at home.

Thats all.

Noted. Still not an excuse to misuse words like ‘privlege’ just so you can start a fight with someone who isn’t your enemy.

What are you going on about enemies?

I just found the post insensitive.
