Interesting. Instead of listening to this person explain their experiences, you've decided they are wrong about how they feel.

Are you trying to express how you are experiencing these different times?

Yeah, I did listen to them. As you notice from me saying "I think..." at the start of my comment, I'm trying to give my perspective. Is that not allowed?

It's very common, especially right now, for people to care so much that it's overwhelming. I can't know that's happening to them (hence, "I think..."), but usually people don't just stop giving a shit. They just figure out that they need a filter.

Also, yes. It's how I'm experiencing it.
