On the one hand, yes it's no strange feeling you descibe. On the other hand, to a lot of people anything official, state or federal as you say was for the longest time a synonym to fair and equal treatment before the laws and ordinances of organised communal society.
And now it's not.
Imagine a sheep on the lam, realising that it's free.…

Imagine a sheep on the lam, realising that it's free. Yippee! at first, and then: "Where will I sleep? Where is warm and food and cuddly pile of friends? Oh shee-it, that is /not/ the dog..."
To avoid that reaction, most people will do pretty much any kind of mental and emotional gymnastics, don't you think?
While this is true for many, I know many colleagues and younger retired people who obediently ran nit only for the jabs but the boosters. One continued to make fun if my choices. The act that crossed the line fir me (and sadly made me indifferent in sharing my concerns) was her sympathy with Canadian banks freezing truckers' accounts for their "disruption".
My sister gave a thumbs up also to the evil seizures. This from a hard core liberal. Hiding in her house. It was nothing for her to turn around snd cruelly lambast a person for being unmasked.
And don't feel bad about being out of sympathy, any well can run dry, but the water will return.
Imagine having to feel sympathetic and empathetic (are those the right words?) all the time, without any filters, conditions or breaks - hello hug-yourself-shirt and nice padded room, I think.

That was a terrible time. All the people who use their televisions for "news" were denied any depiction of reality.
Yes, and she did. I feel guilty I am disinclined to share my concerns any more...
and sad. i feel *so* sad about all this ...
Agreed. Never felt so disheartened for humanity.

You make perfect sense, as always; I'm just out of sympathy.
"As always", I'm showing that to my wife! :)

But so many were forced to get it. That is what is unconscionable.
People have been conditioned in the past years and if you tell them the sky is green they will repeat that as well...

Very true.
Until you hear "Ride of the Valkyries", because some rich bastards are out hunting from a helicopter. (Just to stretch the metaphor.)
