3. on the other hand, some brothers and sisters—younger and in good health—have more favorable circumstances that may allow them to attend christian meetings regularly at the kingdom hall.
I can’t seem to find the letter but I thought that when they announced going back to meetings at memorial time we weren’t supposed to criticize those who decide to stay watching on zoom.
Edit:
I found the letter from March 12/22 and it stated
”personal choices regarding vaccination and whether to attend in person should be respected”

3. on the other hand, some brothers and sisters—younger and in good health—have more favorable circumstances that may allow them to attend christian meetings regularly at the kingdom hall.
However, it has been observed that some have developed a tendency to attend meetings on a videoconference when, according to their circumstances, they could be physically at the Kingdom Hall.
How do the elders know your circumstances? They have been trained to decide what you can and cannot personally do based on external factors.
Where I live personal medical information is private. That is the law. If a person has a compromised immune system or an anxiety disorder perhaps caused by the convid lockdowns and fear mongering how would the elders know that? I certainly am under no obligation to tell them.
atheists believe death is the end of personal existence.

Is non existence really punishment if you don’t have to look at sister holier than though and her condescending elder husband ever again? Like never. I see it as a relief!
i look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?
i'm sure the uk's bbc does.
it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.
Rebel news, post millennial, epoch times, zero hedge. They all have a different take than the mainstreams. You still have to take them all with a grain of salt.

Have any of them ever had their power cut off, house foreclosed on or not been able to pay their medical bills?
Have they ever had to work two jobs to make ends meet?
Have any of them ever had to drive an uninsured car to work until next payday so they can have the money to pay for their plates?
Have they ever had to choose between paying the rent or buying groceries?
when a bank fails, it is legal for that lending institution to perform a "bail-in" (rather than a bailout) for itself.. .
the first sign or signal to the depositor is a red flag moment easy to recognize.
