Anybody have a friend or loved one who was permanently broken by the Covid BS?

I know a few. Utterly changed them. Not because they or someone they loved got sick or died. They’re just mentally damaged, paranoid, fearful, and even hateful of others because they disagree with them on their vaccine stance, etc. This has got to be a bigger issue than is being ‘reported’, and it’s really sad to watch. I’m not sure it’s fixable, either, since the beliefs and emotions are so deeply held, and a reasonable conversation on the topic is impossible without getting them all emotional and angry over the slightest challenge to their world view.

We've had to fire a couple. It's amazing how bad it made the workforce

NIH came to visit me and wore a mask on a hike last week.

Yes. I know several. It depresses the hell out of me too. It's like they've joined a cult.

I still laugh that Howard Stern is still broadcasting from his basement. Trump and Covid broke him.

well it is an issue on both sides really. the issue is neither side of the aisle is willing to have an open discussion - it is simply ridicule towards both sides.

honestly as someone that doesn't give a shite either way, reading about it and seeing it is exhausting.

I've had loved ones die, and watched them suffer for weeks. So it's not really been "BS" to me.

Do I go out in masks? Nah..I do wash my hands more often though.

Yes. I have friends (well not friends anymore) that refuse to wear masks and get vaccinated and call themselves “purebloods”. They refuse to acknowledge that we’re living in the deadliest pandemic in history

one of my best friends was over yesterday with an N95 and is having a near panic attack because he hasn't caught it yet.

i've had it like 16x now.

at some point you're going to get it but you can't let it cripple you.

masked Covidians was the most accurate name of all time.

these people turned Faucci into a God and obedience to all things pandemic as their bible. they loved it while they were on their high horse during the “pandemic”, but as life returned to normal are spiraling into evil hateful people stuck in a cult they can’t get out of (either because they noted the power or don’t want to look like hypocrites or both)

A woman my wife works with was completely over the top insane with this bullshite. She still wears the mask (ffp2 which is the N95 equivalent), hand sanitizer, social distancing, removing and putting on the mask between bites in a public place, tests before going to an event, pushes vaccine on others, she still does all this nonsense. Recently after her 4th dose she came down with Covid and she got angry, but again she still does all of those nonsense measures on her own. I would say that this broke her.
