    Fully agree with you on the second one, but I will say that the first one very much has to do with who’s president, too. Remember when Trump was insisting to everyone who wanted to obey him that they shouldn’t wear masks, and should go to work / school while they’re sick? And those people started affirmatively attacking people who were doing nothing but try to protect themselves and others? Remember when Anthony Fauci had to have a security detail from the US Marshals?
