I was at this weird party where everyone started drinking poison. I tried explaining it to them but I didn’t have any proof or anything and I said “look that’s poison sir” and “m’am if you think there’s any chance I’m right you should stop drinking that” but no luck. They said “I’m thirsty” or “i already have this cup in my hand” or “maybe water is poison and this is antidote, you know more people die from drowning than random poisoning”. I realized I was failing to think about it from their perspective. If I had known all these people for years and this big party was basically what we’ve been planning for a while and it was blowing up online then I would definitely drink it too.
After all the poison-is-actually-antidote guy could’ve also said “if there’s any chance I’m right you have to drink it right now” which would be just political manuvineering clearly.
