In this house, we imagine people complexly 😤
The commenters calling me unhinged and brain dead on a video about avoiding exposing my infant to covid? I imagine they’re scared to acknowledge that they might still be in danger from a virus society has decided to ignore
The commenters who laugh at “liberals crying over a cold”? I imagine they’ve been laughed at for their deeply held beliefs by people who don’t agree with their politics
The commenter who said I deserve to have my child talen away from me? Okay I’m actually having a hard time imagining my way around that one, and ultimately I’m just grateful to not be living a life that leads me to leave horrible comments for newly postpartum moms to read
I’m sure I don’t get it right all the time, but I’m doing my best to choose kindness and curiosity
Is it too much to hope the ripples of my choices will somehow influence the toxic cesspools of social media? 😅
