I think it is because people react to the real biological fear of death engaging in any means they perceive will protect them from it. Excrement is the fundamental symbol of death as it screams we are only bodies and nothing more. Especially in an era of anti-religion, where science types claim there is no heaven. Bodies are buried in the earth to rot away with maggots and the where the shit goes. So it's fear of death of which TP is unconsciously associated.
So folks think toilet paper will keep clean and safe. |

Otherwise, I thought I'd take a stab at it intellectually rather than emotionally waving the finger. |

Government officials: "Panic, hysteria, shelter in place, curfew, don't leave your home, don't have gatherings of more than 10 people, shut down all businesses..."
Same Government officials: "Why is everyone panic shopping?" |

With that being said I'd really like to see you explain how buying way more than you need solely in your own self interest, to the point others can't get what they need for the short term isn't selfish. |
