Agreed, you are technically correct, but you are missing the meaning. Most people did not self censor much due to fear. They held socially acceptable opinions and not much of what they thought should be kept bottled up. Now? Who the hell knows what to say and if you’ll be hunted for it later. Support feminism? Some now see you as transphobic. Support trans causes? Now some feminists say you’re raising up men and oppressing women. Don’t care about either causes? Well now you’re a monster!

Don’t worry though, much like the weather in Virginia, survive till tomorrow and it’ll change.

Also, it literally is mutating at a breakneck pace, not only compared with historic norms of idea change rates, but also even compared to people’s ability to keep up. It’s insanity.
