not so goofy when individual actions have a wider effect. even if that effect is unfounded or overreaction. like the lolkids spitting in food, smearing snot on door knobs just for s&g's and social media cred. i accept this is their choice and even accept the self centered aspect. i get that some people say fuck you, i don't choose to be locked down and i don't care if i get sick or make you sick.

even though i am one who might suffer with severe consequences if i am not careful. this is a consequence of living in crowded spaces.

practically speaking, the threat of a lockdown becomes more of a plan because individuals decide to do their own thing despite the risk to others. will this be sufficient to modify actions? the grandest lab rat test is launched.

the individual and the group - not a false binary but an ever-present tension.
