- Spivak 5y agoYeah, like it's totally fine to be against lockdowns on principle -- I know a lot of people in my social circle that are against mandatory lockdowns (and want advisory only) because it gives yet another thing for police to selectively enforce in poor and minority areas. But then there's this internet mass that self-identifies using the label "anti-lockdown" which is full of people who are at best crazy and unhinged. But people read the headline and assume that "$social_media is censoring my opinions!" when it really just a specific group that has co-opted some label to pseudolegitimze their views.
