Whether it's valid or not, the anger is happening, which is good to recognize and validate. But I think it's a worthwhile exercise to explore the root of that anger and the response to it.

I don't think it's rational to be angry at one's partner for getting sick during an enormous surge of an incredibly contagious disease even while taking more precautionary measures against getting sick than maybe 95% of the population.

I am also willing to bet that she knows full well that the OP has been nudging her about COVID stuff beyond what she's already been doing (which already sounds cautious), and feels guilty about it. This probably goes on top of the guilt and shame of potentially exposing your loved one to a serious and highly communicable disease.

I think the person in the situation who needs compassion and care is the person who currently definitely has COVID. For the OP, it's reasonable to be afraid of getting sick and for that fear to manifest as anger. But I do not think it is fair to guilt or shame one's partner as a vector of disease when she probably already physically, mentally, and emotionally feels like shit.

It sounds like the OP agrees with this by saying "Better on Hexbear than out loud," which I 100% agree with. But if OP was my friend telling me this over the phone, this is what I'd tell him, not to shame him for feeling anger, but to help identify its source as fear for his and his partner's wellbeing and handle it in a healthy and functional way that supports his partner in her time of need.

OP we are here for you to help u be there for her

Individual responsibility is not how virus transmission during a global pandemic works. If you live in you are in the middle of the second-highest spike in COVID transmission ever. Everybody is getting this shit. She literally cannot wear a mask while having her mouth worked on, and the intersection of dentists who take your insurance, follow your personal COVID rules exactly, and have an appointment when you need it is vanishingly small. Be mad at Fauci, Trump, Biden, Pfizer, and your workplaces, not your girlfriend.

Frustration and aggravation are totally normal and acceptable, and it's good and respectful to your partner to vent here to us instead of to her directly. But I really don't think you have much of a leg to stand on for sustained indignation. You are one, possibly two, in a wave of millions of cases. This is just what's happening. Chances are you will both be OK.

Rooting for the both of you.

I truly don't understand how this shit is supposed to go. I am by no means impoverished and I am simply not going to afford to be able to live where I live forever, like perhaps within the next two years, depending on what a greedy fuck my landlord is.

Once they have priced out their tenants, where do landlords think the rent is going to come from?

This might not be the most satisfying answer, but my opinions of Maoism are based on what I've read of his principal texts and of the economic and social revitalization of China since he was in power. I live in the imperial core, and when I look around at the societal problems in my community and in my country writ large, I see immediate land redistribution as the swiftest cure to the largest issue, and Mao in my mind is the foremost advocate, architect, and practitioner of anticapitalist land redistribution on the national scale.

So my view is mostly from old books and from my neighborhood, and I'm not too well versed with the other cells around the world who claim the Maoist title. All I'll say about the Nepalese Maoists is, my knee-jerk reaction to anticapitalist forces is support, I don't know enough about them to comment further, and I hesitate to levy judgment on people across the world from me.

I am mostly a Maoist, with some anarchism sprinkled in.

Basically I think the single fastest thing we could to do improve our society is to:

1. all kill our landlords
2. form community mutual aid networks in the homes we subsequently inhabit without fear, while
3. putting a priority on decolonisation and welcoming of displaced peoples to their imperialized lands.
