Pourquoi j'évite de suivre les comptes qui se contentent de blâmer "l'individualisme" ou "les autres" concernant la prévention du Covid ?
D'abord parce-que ces comptes n'apportent aucune analyse, aucune clé de compréhension. Il n'y a bien souvent aucune considération pour les droits fondamentaux,

The US is woefully underprepared for wildfire season, say insiders: ‘The stakes are life and death’ ‘Efficiency’ cuts across offices have left teams understaffed, firefighters underpaid and uninsured, and without adequate equipment

Five federal firefighters, who spoke anonymously because they are barred from speaking publicly, were asked if their agencies were ready for fire season. The answer was a resounding “no”.

“If this turns out to be a major fire year, it’s going to be a shit show.”

It doesn't matter if you work full time or part time or no time. It doesn't matter how you got here or where you live. We either think suffering for some people is good or we don't.

The idea that a person has to be employed in wage labor to have sufficient value to society for us to guarantee them food, water, shelter, healthcare, and education is evil.

If you're a human being in the United States, you are OWED food, water, shelter, healthcare, and education. Full stop.

I wish they could invent a medical device that temporality transfers your symptoms and pain to the doctor treating you and it worked like a shock collar. "I think some light exercise would -" and then bam they're rolling around the floor clutching their stomach in agony and dry heaving.
