People losing their livelihoods, people losing people they loved, people with cancer (and a multitude of other conditions) not being able to have treatment, people being unable to see loved ones, people being isolated and lonely and in need of companionship, people finding life more difficult because they weren't able to do the things they normally could to keep well physically and psychologically.
Etc etc etc.
And guess what, those people were on the fridge threads too, finding what joy they could in the circumstances.
It's extremely hard of thinking to operate under the misapprehension that being a twat on a thread on MN helps the poor and needy or makes any jot of difference to the lives of people who have less or are in difficulty.
It's extremely hard of thinking to not understand that many people with plenty give loads to charity and food banks and local initiatives that need it.
It's extremely hard of thinking to believe that policing joy on a thread does anything at all of value for anyone in the entire world. It's a pointless, meaningless, miserable thing to do, and entirely vacuous.
People like that ought to get off MN and go be the change.
