I Don’t Get It

Apparently our leader is a great communicator. She spells stuff out really clearly. For example ‘Stay home’ and ‘Act like you have COVI- 19’ and ‘Be kind’. All unambiguous instructions. But it isn’t easy to follow instructions if you don’t understand why. Here’s a simple analogy. I’
