This is absolutely not me excusing QAnon adherents for their own bad choices, but I hear the below again and again from people who know them: Everything spiraled as lockdowns began. I think we have a much more serious mental health crisis in this country than we’ve admitted... https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
And some people are taking really desperate measures to develop and embed themselves in a community in which they can actively participate as normal things associated with normal communities close down. https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
Yesterday in NYC, I saw a billboard that said “Alone. Together.” This was in relation to COVID-19. I think a lot of Q people are alone, together. Human beings are social animals and the current environment is really not working for a lot of people. https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
The consequences for all of us, in turn, could be extremely dire— as we saw at the Capitol. This is not an argument for fully reopening and acting like nothing is wrong. https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
But it is saying that a lot of places, I suspect, aren’t doing COVID management in the best manner. Personally, how it is here in Stamford seems best to me— people wear masks, we have very good and rapid turnaround testing, and things are about 90% open. https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
But when I’ve been to other places during COVID, I’ve found Stamford is a total outlier on all of these things. And I think it’s hurting people a lot. If we’re not all going to be vaccinated in the next 3 months, man, we have got to get better at this... https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
I don’t know of anywhere else where big chunks of the population can get a PCR test at 10am and have the result by 2pm AND people are wearing masks at high levels AND businesses are functioning at 90% open, normal rates AND schools are open as normal. https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
CT is lucky because we have billionaires who have stepped in to make things work better, mainly because they don’t want their staff missing 2 weeks of work or more or even dying due to COVID. But this should be replicable. https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405?s=21 https://twitter.com/laurenonthehill/status/1350886231316582405
