Does anyone else feel like the more they learn about fucked up history and current events the more we have to worry about? The older I get, and as I learn about history, the more things I have to think about that keep me up at night. Maybe ignorance is bliss after all?
EDIT: I should have mentioned originally that I’m a person that is hyper vigilant (on the spectrum) and can’t not notice things. I notice every little detail of everything I see. Why is the guy at the grocery store blocking the entire aisle and is completely oblivious that people can’t get by? Why did that person turn without a turn signal? I notice people’s body language. I meticulously pick apart things that people say and extract meaning that I’m sure they never intended. I originally thought it was OCD, but I don’t have any of those traditional trappings. I wish I could just turn it off, as it’s exhausting.
This essentially sums up how I go through my day. I wish I could not know/notice things: https://youtu.be/dmbtt3iGXzg


It’s a network effect, you need collective understanding for things like unions to exist
