The lockdowns and subsequent vaccine drama turned a huge amount of previously assumed "liberal" new-age dumbasses into full-throated right-wing dumbasses. It was surprising to watch at first, but it makes sense when you think about it.
Is it because there's a whole ton of people who are simply selfish?
Basically the whole contingent is anti-authority, and con's were able to capitalize on that by feeding the pushback against vaccines and masks.
