Well said. I have to admit it's chronically frustrating watching people turn on one another and ignoring the real reasons we're all under such incredible stress, but I do live in a very conservative area so have to give a lot of grace for differing expectations, and there's also this great line in Tyson Yunkaporta's book "Sand Talk" about how little good it does anyone to be critical of people surviving at the margins of society for the choices they make (the definitions of which of course vary).

Oh, I'm full of them. (Book recommendations, that is, not great lines!)

I really loved this conversation with Tyson on the For The Wild podcast, he is so refreshingly straight talking (not to mention funny) as well as incredibly wise https://pca.st/episode/a2eb039c-9eca-45d1-94f2-69f4c1a2663d
