1. Cerebros Rotos y Trauma Psicológico Generalizado.
La pandemia es descrita como un evento traumático que ha afectado la salud mental de las personas a nivel global, llevando a una ruptura fundamental en la capacidad de razonamiento y la cordura colectiva.
- There is something to the idea that the pandemic broke a lot of peoples brains, i see this collective forgetting all over, not just in politics.
- The pandemic broke more things than we realized. I think it traumatized the world and now were reacting to it by being in total denial and electing the wrong people.
- The uncertainty, on a day-to-day basis, that exists now is a near replica of what it was like during the first 18-months of the pandemic. Those months cooked the brains of so many people and radicalized them into becoming the nihilists they are today.
- Pretty clear in retrospect that the pandemic broke some threads of sanity that will never come back.
- I think that the pandemic broke a lot of people in a fundamental way. It broke their empathy.
2. Erosión de la Empatía y Aumento del Egoísmo.
Un tema recurrente es la disminución de la empatía y el aumento del egocentrismo, donde la conveniencia personal a menudo superó la preocupación por la vida y el bienestar de los demás.
- The pandemic really opened my eyes to how self absorbed people had become. Inconvenience was worse than possible death to these people.
- I think the pandemic caused a massive hit to peoples empathy and general social life, and things never really recovered.
- The biggest thing ive noticed, as someone who needs to socially isolate bc im particularly at-risk, is how the pandemic has eroded peoples empathy.
- People stopped caring about strangers lives about six months into the pandemic. That is, if they ever did. The pandemic taught me that most people are stupid, selfish, potentially homicidal sociopaths.
- It genuinely scares the shit out of me that a global pandemic managed to de-empathize such a massive portion of the population.
3. Deterioro del Comportamiento Social y la Decencia.
La pandemia ha sido señalada como un catalizador para el declive de las normas sociales, la cortesía y el respeto, dando paso a comportamientos antisociales y una mayor valoración del conflicto.
- I think the pandemic caused a massive hit to peoples empathy and general social life, and things never really recovered. Feels like we forgot about decency and respect and instead value outrage and argument more.
- A worldwide pandemic didnt bring us closer, it seems to have made some of us meaner and less sympathetic to the next person.
- How come this anti social behavior that didnt previously seem so common is suddenly the norm?? the pandemic it was the pandemic did we collectively lose pattern recognition in the pandemic or something the fuck.
- I honestly believe that the pandemic broke people and nobody remembers how to live in a society any more.
- The pandemic gave rise to a lot of anti social behavior.
4. Negación y Olvido Colectivo de la Pandemia.
Existe una tendencia generalizada a olvidar o negar la realidad y las consecuencias de la pandemia, lo que se interpreta como un mecanismo de afrontamiento o una amnesia colectiva.
- I see this collective forgetting all over, not just in politics.
- The memory of what the pandemic was like is quickly fading away. To many, the people who died are becoming just a vague memory.
- I swear the part of the pandemic that actually required people to care and make even the smallest sacrifice broke people in so many different directions to the point there is a kind of collective amnesia, where even acknowledging it happened is considered rude.
- This whole trend wont end until people forget the feelings the pandemic engendered in them theyve already forgotten the actual pandemic.
- The memory-holing of this pandemic has been the most surreal thing ive witnessed in a half-century on this planet. People didnt forget it, they erased it. Tens of millions have willed it out of their consciousness through active, continuous self-deception.
5. Aceleración de Tendencias Negativas y Fractura Social.
La pandemia no solo causó nuevos problemas, sino que también aceleró tendencias preexistentes, exponiendo las debilidades de los sistemas y radicalizando a la población, llevando a una sociedad más dividida y hostil.
- Pandemic merely accelerated trends that were already there and made people even grumpier.
- Theres something about the pandemic that absolutely broke people. It unequivocally exposed the cracks in the current systems, everything from healthcare to supply lines to justice, and that radicalized a lot of people into complete denial.
- The pandemic era consequence that will keep haunting us is many peoples completely fried brains and changed attitudes to everything - facts, law, society, politics.
- The pandemic was a waymarker on our journey to a harsher, crueller world is a line that hits hard.
- The pandemic was a radically destabilizing event that generated a lot of fear, suffering, anger, and powerlessness in the face of complexity. Its impact on our personal, social, and political lives cannot be underestimated.
