Some people complied because they were scared.
but a whole lot more absolutely relished being able to bully their families and neighbors and co-workers and friends. They were losers with little purpose before this, but when COVID happened they could suddenly start shouting people down like stormtroopers and get praised for it.
I know several who bragged on social media about how much good they were doing by following the rules and how WE'RE NOT ASSHOLES like so many others out there.
Yet while they were openly bragging about sitting on their couch and staying in and ordering everything they needed, they never once addressed the question of the people who had to make and deliver all this shit they were ordering so THEY didn't have to go out.
They were very happy to let other people take the risk of a deadly disease so THEY could be safe and comfortable and nasty and bullying and, most important, praised and encouraged on social media.
If that doesn't tell you what this was really about, I don't know what would.
Oh, my own sister told me I was being selfish and mean. Then they forbade me from seeing my mom and wouldn't let me join them for holidays. I decided to move 2000 plus miles away during that time.
Yeah, funny how THEIR staying indoors and compliants meant that their 'servants' would expose themselves and risk their lives catering to them - infuriating thinking about this again.
