It sucks.
People I used to respect. The cool uncles, and laid back friends, now all totally convinced that things are going badly. Don't even wanna met in-person unless I've been vaccinated or tested routinely. It's INSANE

The biggest metalhead I know, the guy who is all about going to Slayer concerts, always seems like the tough guy and all that, even is a republican; turns out he's one of the biggest pussies I know, is all about masking, refuses to hang out with us (going on a year now), and totally buys into the narrative.
Truth. I traffic in punk/metal scenes and they're all cucked for fear of being seen as some kind of KKK hillbilly
