Grief/tragedy/sympathy guilt trip

News stories that get more and more desperate until people submit into doing anything the media/government/healthcare industry/scientists want them to do.
Last week's grief/tragedy/sympathy guilt trip was a recycled story from the Trump era about a young guy that still thought the coronavirus was a hoax until he ended up in ICU. When that didn't increase vaccination rates, the grief/tragedy/sympathy industry got more desperate and had a guy talking emotionally about how you can save his one year old in Arkansas even if you live halfway across the country by getting in line for a vaccine. Just do what these people say and everyone will be okay, just meet their demands is what the grief/tragedy/sympathy industry is trying to prime people's subconcious with.

First World Guilt

Describes the situation in which one is about to throw some shit away then imagines a kid in Africa in a predicament of exaggerated poverty: dirt huts and all, causing said person to think twice about throwing that shit away.
Guy 1 stares at his somewhat empty plate of food. He’s full. The amount of food that’s left isn’t really enough to justify saving it for later, but it’s still enough for one to consider continue finishing it.

Guy 1 just decides to get up from the dinner table and throw it away. As he walks over to the trash can and opens it, he pauses. Guy 2 notices.

Guy 2: “You good?”
Guy 1: “Just.. feeling that first world guilt”
Guy 2: “Dude you’re a bitch.”
