Nah I don't think anyone is the enemy really, but it certainly wasn't a very comfortable experience, for myself at least I think that the lockdowns gave everyone a kind of deep empathy for how society can breed a prison mentality at a large scale

Whether it's to uphold a certain system in society, e.g. drug war, propaganda or to prepare to engage in a hot war or simply to spread a cult dogma, there's a huge Stockholm syndrome experience for everyone who is born into a society or complex system as a whole
