There is no moral judgement here, there are only two sides here:  Those who want to get back to living their lives on their terms and those who want to virtue signal about those people living their lives on their own terms.

History has a habit of bypassing the virtue signalers.  As I said elsewhere in five or so years the Carona Karens will be openly mocked because those who simply want to get on with life will be victorious.

There are those who want to turn the turnings backwards, to go back to what we once were.  Unlikely.  If you want to run by unravelling selfishness and hedonism during a crisis, you are going to be out of step.  You can try to run against the will of most of the people, but if you do so you are likely to get trampled.  The vague principles that hold true during three plus turnings don't hold true in a crisis heart.

You have always clung to the elites, whether it be the Communist Party or your father. This has obvious advantages most of the time. Not just now. You might want to run with the people for a little while.
