[quote=Anonymous]I think it's going to take some time to figure it out with more specificity, but we're in the midst of a massive social upheaval. A lot of people are out of work or making less money. Many people have lost family members to Covid. And the rhythms and geography of the city are changed because people are working from home, office buildings are half empty, and people are not socializing in the same ways or with the same freedom. Oh, and kids are not in school. It's a very unsettling time for everyone, and for people who are already living unstable lives, it is particularly dangerous. People are under more pressure due to job loss, loss of childcare, etc. People can't blow of steam in the ways they used to. They might not be able to get away from people with whom they have a conflict. Everything escalates. It's awful how many people have been violently killed this year, and it's also amazing it hasn't been worse.[/quote]
