The Age of Abandonment (www.freyaindia.co.uk)
submitted 3 months ago by [email protected] to c/articles
 
 

Strangely, I think she hit the nail on the head.

Plus, total abandonment of any sense that we belong to something bigger. Loss of faith—not just in religion, but in all social bonds. No sense that there’s anything binding us, that we even share the same values. Forget loving our neighbour, we can’t even make eye contact with them. Nothing holds us together anymore. We are alone.

Everything she complains there about is again related to “Covid Moral Lesson II”: “What makes relationships possible is that we set the right expectations, and that we trust ourselves and others to honour them. These expectations set the parameters for acceptable behaviour, and keep us responsive and responsible to each other. It is precisely these expectations that the COVID narrative demanded we breach.”
