This is a great question! I reckon a little? But I would put it down to a couple of things - one is that I feel Covid’s sudden onset and danger was far better received from a “people need to sort their shit out” perspective. But also I feel like socially-speaking people are more altruistic compared with back then.
That’s interesting you said that last line, given how many lament that society is even more prone to groupthink and less charitable compared to even 2 decades ago. It’ll be interesting to see how society reacts over the next few summers
