[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a nurse who worked during Covid in the hospital. I think the weirdest thing I see is that sometimes it feels like people went through it but came out with different realities? Like when I read someone say “I can’t believe how much we overreacted, etc etc” and my memory of it is still lots of people dying and/or getting really sick. Including co-workers. Like yes, it involved. But it was surreal in 2020 and even parts of 2021. So yes, it changed me. It also made me aware how the US is so politically divided and the days of uniting over something big (pandemic or something else) are gone.

It did bring into stark relief what a terrible sickness narcissism and lack of empathy is. Many people thoughtlessly decided that their experience was universal to the point of believing the whole thing never happened or was no big deal, which is truly insane.[/quote]

But the point is now in 2023 life is back to normal. That was then and this is now. Just not seeing a huge societal shift. What’s different? People don’t go to as many potlucks as they used to? Nobody is saying didn’t happen, rather it did and we are in the other side now. How is society different not just an individual experience?[/quote]
