I remember reading this a while ago, B. It made me sad. Not just for you and your family, but for the loss of goodness, friendships, and community.
It didn’t used to be like this, you’re right. Politics didn’t separate families or friends or completely divide a community. Most people have become suspicious and untrusting, causing all of us to become introverted publicly. When anyone anywhere can pull a gun out of his truck or his pop it off his belt loop, we have had to adopt a wariness about ‘others.’
The trend worsens by the day as Red Hat states add additional requirements to our daily lives. Sometimes they subtract them. But either way, the life we knew in the last century differs greatly from the life we know now, doesn’t it?
Since you have good interpersonal skills Maui you should try to find out what the root cause is of these folks discontent. It will take some digging. Use the Toyota method, taught to everyone of “asking why 4 times”. That obviously means asking why until you hit pay dirt. If the mask is a problem , just get a vaccination. Free at most places including Costco.
