It's gobsmacking to me that your former friends effectively blamed you for being persecuted. I can see why they're ex-friends. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
LoL, now you've put your foot in it. Ex-friends was a euphemism for 'everyone I know except one person', and I didn't get rid of them all! But I did call their basic understanding of causality flawed, and the ones that remain in my circle of trust deserve credit for responding well.
Perhaps 'victim denying' is more accurate, since everyone I know (except one) denied the unvaxxed were persecuted at all.
Surely you had something similar from some source? We certainly all had it from our brave leaders and media.
Remember that to the true believers, we unvaccinated are the heretics putting grandma at risk, prolonging the pandemic, forcing them to be locked down, ruining their businesses, ruining social occasions with our conspiracy crap, overflowing hospitals, ruining their mood with unwelcome data, ruining the 'covid response solidarity' with our individualism, selfishly trying to be right, or protect rights when people are dying from the plague, etc. - To them, we were not victims of anything.
When the government says 'you made me do it', that's not a sure sign of an abusive relationship, that's you forcing their hand. Your fault.
When the choice is comply with whatever madeness we dictate, or suffer these constantly redefined consequences, that's not a false dichotomy, that's a legitimate choice!
I'm far more fortunate than most in that I only lost one friend throughout this entire debacle, and that was quite early on in the piece before the persecution really got underway.
I haven't paid attention to the lamestream media for years, and tuned out completely when covidiacy began. I caught little snippets of the ranting that were shared on social media, of course, but I've deliberately minimised my exposure in order to preserve my sanity.
