I'm sure you see this everywhere : People are stocking up piles of TP , why the fuck are they buying shitloads of goddamn toilet paper? It's not like the world is going to run out of it because of the corona/covid-19/sars-ncov2 virus, it will go away eventually. It's not like you're doomed when you run out of toilet paper neither , there are plenty more ways to clean your asshole. I've seen video's of huge groups of people lining up in front of a supermarket to storm the damn place as soon as the doors open , it's just like black Friday. Why ? You can easily get infected that way. It just seems like too many people are too stupid, i get that we have to be cautious , we can't have this virus spreading too fast , lot's elderly/sickly people might die and hospitals can't take in too many people at once. But wtf does it have to do with toilet paper? Can anyone explain?

Psychology suggests that some people use panic buying to control their emotional state:

And some people are just dickheads:

"Amazon bans 10,000 users for price gouging and removes a MILLION products as sales of hand sanitizer rocket with two bottles advertised for $120 amid coronavirus outbreak"
