@Kampfdiestel@mastodon.social it is a problem of understanding though. People in crippling cc debt or payday loans have suffered from a similar, but much shorter-term lack of understanding. As soon as they start paying off the debt, a sense of relief will emerge. It's the sense of relief of the axe towards a neck accelerating slower. Shortly after a sense of dread will emerge. It's the sense of dread of the sound of ABS in a car: the endless seconds before the slightly delayed collision. @yokofakun@genomic.social
