But are you really a useless good-for-nothing POS in need of condemnation because you feel depressed, full of grief, and despair? I do not connect these things in this way. We all have different levels of sensitivity and debilitation, isolation, perimeters of influence. I see my great grief because those things of beauty have been swiftly disappearing and destroyed, not because i am an "inferior" person, which is what is inferred here IMO. It is overwhelming as if one looks at history, then adds 8 billion, any fantasies or projections about human enlightenment is looking through some rose colored lenses and automatically condemns anyone who sees the horror and atrocity. Feels like gaslighting to suggest anyone who feels despair or depression is somehow inferior and not doing enough. Sigh. If she had perhaps omitted that one line or two, this piece would have had a different shade.
