The tactics of critiquing dissent in Western countries have taken on a female character, namely that of a concern trolling tone: "who hurt you to be so mean?" It is essentially a quasi-Freudian approach of looking for people's social and sexual hang-ups (or "unconscious bias") to explain why they are dissenters. Hence outliers are "radicalised" victims of "fake news", they are "incels" and people alienated from society; yet at heart it is mockery hiding as sympathy. The mirror is turned on the personal disposition of the dissenters, not their actual arguments. It's a patholigising of dissent.

Indeed my friend, I chose to not wear a face nappy throughout the plandemic, and although I did not get outright thrown out of any shops the obedient herd were judging me unfavourably. My mother said she wears a mask to put others at ease but the way I saw it is that it makes no sense, and it is harmful, therefore I am doing a dis-service to both myself and others by going along with such a nonsensical practice.

We had a friend regularly coming to visit and she would sit on the floor so as not to alarm such 'eager snitches' who bought the whole narrative hook, line, and sinker.

Life in the UK during that period was bizarre and being a non believer in the mass religion certainly left my partner and I ostricized and alienated from the community at large.
