Re: This is a confession (non-fandom)
(Anonymous) 2020-12-19 08:15 am (UTC)(link)You have a good point- and I do apologize as today is not the best of days for me and my emotions are running wild. But at the same time I do feel the need to ask, that while everyone is essentially condemned by their emotions, to what exactly is the extent of forgiveness in that?
OP stated that they knew that wishing other more well maintained countries should take in the sick of others was unrealistic and wrong. They never said anything about the mindset that being resentful of those countries based simply by the fact they were more responsible about this plague than their own was wrong also.
Albeit it may just be their phrasing, but by comparing their view to the phrase of 'there are two types of people' it implies that both opinions are in some way right or understandable. And while OP definitely falls into the more pessimistic side of the equation, between blaming the world for such a pandemic and focusing their anger to the point of expecting other countries/people to fix the mistakes made by others completely out of their jurisdiction even at risk of themselves, OP falls on the very far side of that opinion.
At what point does someone's thoughts, actions, and opinions define them as a person. There's a certain point of ignorance and fury that, I think, goes into the mindset of specifically resenting the people who have done all they could to protect themselves simply because they believe they succeeded. Being angry at the world is an emotion, but picking and choosing who they vindicate is a decision.
