I'm so glad that you've been able to connect with calm people at a place where you don't need an app to be allowed in. I'm passionate about climbing, but most of my lovely climbing friends have bought in to the mainstream media's scaremongering so much that they don't even want lockdown to end. These are people who enjoy scaling rock faces and dangling from ropes!
I feel such a disconnect from them over this, which is really sad, that I no longer go on Facebook. However I just went on FB this afternoon for a webinar, and a group messenger conversation popped up. One guy, who's been climbing for decades, said he won't be going near the climbing centre once lockdown is lifted. He said he'd climb outside instead. Another person said outdoor venues would be really busy after lockdown, and then people started saying "I'm going to build a climbing wall in my back yard" etc.
These are youngish people with above average fitness and intelligence! Wanting to avoid all human contact for fear of something that has a miniscule chance of killing them. I fear for the human race!
Yes, Heaven Help us (collectively) if this is the prevailing mindset. It's really tough when you discover people THINK so differently on such a basic issue, and that it affects he way people gather, touch, eat, play and exercise. The Tribe is being narrowed and culled and clarified. Thanks for taking the time to engage & comment. 😊
