> Intelligent panicking <:brain_blimp:588140316339470347>

Yes. Imagine it as similar to how there's good and bad type of envy

2020-03-16 10:45:45 UTC  

We have measures in place, just hope people will follow isolation rules

2020-03-16 10:46:16 UTC  

Panicking is never good

2020-03-16 10:46:27 UTC  

Panic buying will just spread it further

2020-03-16 10:46:53 UTC  

Then again I'm nocturnal basically so daywalkers can get fucked

2020-03-16 10:47:52 UTC  

At the beginning when shortages haven't happened yet, people are always more cooperative

Give it a couple months and let's see what the tp people will do. Hint: something disorderly

2020-03-16 10:48:07 UTC  

There is no advantage to paranoia

2020-03-16 10:48:25 UTC  

The toilet paper wont stop being produced

2020-03-16 10:48:27 UTC  

Watch the vid

2020-03-16 10:48:30 UTC  

Supplies wont stop

2020-03-16 10:48:43 UTC  

They can, temporarily.

2020-03-16 10:48:47 UTC  

The overwhelming majority of supplies critical to your existence are heavily automated

2020-03-16 10:49:10 UTC  

If everyone is panic buying toilet paper, you have to as well if you don't have a supply.

2020-03-16 10:49:15 UTC  

otherwise you run out.

2020-03-16 10:49:17 UTC  

@Goddess Tyche Give me a tldr. Not giving that person views

2020-03-16 10:49:29 UTC  

Why would I care about running out of TP?

2020-03-16 10:49:29 UTC  

granted, TP is not irreplacable, but the concept aplies

2020-03-16 10:49:33 UTC  

I have trees near me

2020-03-16 10:49:38 UTC  

And I have flowing water

2020-03-16 10:49:50 UTC  

What more do you need?

2020-03-16 10:50:26 UTC  

Entire industries being shut down as we speak with hundred thousands of people people simultaneously loosing their earning potential.

That on its own is enough reason to panic, never mind corona..

2020-03-16 10:51:04 UTC  

The TL;DR for the video is that paranoia prevents you from suffering the fate of stumbling into a low-probability-high-impact event.

2020-03-16 10:51:47 UTC  

So. Being retarded and going out into masses of people when a disease is going around

2020-03-16 10:51:53 UTC  

Means you wont get impacted

2020-03-16 10:51:57 UTC  

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight

2020-03-16 10:52:00 UTC  

Like with Corona. If you're paranoid, you lower your chances, even if they are low to begin with, of suffering infinite repercussions (death).

2020-03-16 10:52:38 UTC  

If you're paranoid you're more likely to get infected

2020-03-16 10:52:56 UTC  

HOW?

2020-03-16 10:53:06 UTC  

If you're paranoid, you fucking bolt yourself into the house.

2020-03-16 10:53:17 UTC  

And you have bought supplies ALREADY.

2020-03-16 10:53:30 UTC  

It's a respiratory virus that spreads by breathing. Nothing short of total isolation will suffice and then you'll likely catch it later without any issue.

2020-03-16 10:53:55 UTC  

Countries being paranoid also helps.

2020-03-16 10:54:00 UTC  

The additional stress is more likely to weaken your immune response and make you even worse off

2020-03-16 10:54:04 UTC  

SHUT THE BORDER DOWN IMMEDIATELY!

2020-03-16 10:54:18 UTC  

It's paranoid ... it also works.

2020-03-16 10:55:03 UTC  

That's not paranoia

2020-03-16 10:55:07 UTC  

That's rational

2020-03-16 10:55:07 UTC  

Also, the other point of the video is that non-paranoid people spread disease by not overreacting.

2020-03-16 10:55:21 UTC  

@Malac You misunderstand the word paranoia, methinks.
