Great post, thank you for writing it.

It made me think of two other examples, Proverbs 14:1: A wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands.

2nd example is Twitter acting as if it can't censor conservative thought, then it will destroy the company.

I was listening to a Joel Wellbon podcast about abortion yesterday and he was talking with someone who pointed out that there is a segment of women who glory in the destruction (they gave the example of the ones taking abortion pills during a national rally sometime ago.)

The "how do we relate to other people?" concern is intrinsic to the lockdowns, masking, etc. How we see ourselves as well, of course. And, the desire to draw ourselves into danger in order to have better lives. It seems impossible to have a really satisfactory conversation about these fundamental issues on the Internet--and I think that is part of the point.
