Right, it's not exactly gaslighting. Rather, it's a fucking strawman made in bad faith.

The stakes are not "my stocks". The stakes are civil society, which as you may or may not know, can't exist for long without a functioning economy.

You're right, the stakes are civil society. Which you no longer get to claim you have when you sacrifice the weak and the sick to Moloch for pseudofictional accounts in a computer somewhere.

We must take care of each other, it is our basic obligation as citizens of a civil society, and this is the only way we can do that right now.

If that's what you mean then fucking say it. Tarring folks who express concern over the economy with a bullshit strawman just makes you the asshole.
