Yes the first one came out wrong. The “this” which I claim is not as much of a thing outside Germany is the insane pressure to pack your bag extremely quickly, not the feeling of anxiety.

I mean the level of pressure is lower elsewhere than in Germany, of course it’s still easy to feel anxious anywhere

then go running to do stuff where they further isolate themselves

Mmm yeah, cos it’s such quality time interacting with the cashier. Like, you’re not totally wrong about the problem, isolation does make us even less able to handle interaction, but making people bag groceries for a living is not the way to solve that problem. Anyway, it’s not fair to force your desire to have a conversation on someone who is trapped working somewhere.

the anxiety of packing your bags too slowly

Haha, spotted the German. This isn’t really a thing elsewhere, not to that extent.

Sure, but it really is extremely isolated. There are some tiny towns a bit over 100 km away and then it’s thousands of km to anywhere else. Volcanos rarely endanger more than 40 km around them.

equivocating is not just a smarter word for equating
