    most people seem to love the fear.

    No, only conservatives, who voted for this to happen to our country. And they represent about 30% of the populace.

    Still WAY too high of a percentage of mentally ill people.

      I disagree, it’s not just a conserviative problem; there’s an authoritarian problem that straddles both sides. I think the left is less susceptible to it, but it’s there. I know plenty of “lliberals” who accept things uncritically as well, and plenty who are perfectly happy submitting to any authority.

      I have “liberal” relatives who argue to this day that it’s all just politics, and that biden was worse because he forced masks.

        Indeed, democrats are pushing internet surveillance and censorship as we speak. Both major American parties want to control you (they’re both funded by the same people so no surprise).
