It was never about covid. These people are born to be contrarians about whatever other people are doing. I don’t know exactly what makes them want to live that way, but that’s just their preferred way of existing. Be it covid, Russia, LGBT, and whatever other “”“opinions”“” they’ve been spoon fed on their Facebook feed. They always change. Every other week/month/year it’s something else they get butthurt about. Funnily enough, it’s almost always the same type of person: no education, frustrated with life, dead-end job, in debt, and so on. I personally believe that angertainment is a coping mechanism for them. I’ve told family members before to stick to normal topics like a normal social human being when talking to me, because I do not care about their frustrations with whatever X is doing.
