It has nothing to do with any of the things you listed, maybe you're projecting. It's not retribution to avoid someone, nor is it vengeful to shop somewhere else.

I have for years had a big list of people, companies, and other organizations I wish to actively avoid. The pandemic just gave me higher resolution on the "undefined" set of humans and organizations.

I already avoid racists, extreme partisans, assholes, anti-science types, people who are mean to waitstaff, people who don't read books, et c. Covid gave me a few more categories.

Sounds like a recipe to end up alone.

Everything they said sounded pretty reasonable to me, I also keep away from people who fall into all of those categories

That hasn't been the case so far, and, in my experience, my overall quality of social interactions has gone up drastically since I adopted my current approach.

Perhaps there are false positives; I am willing to take that risk for the immense benefits so far.

The funny thing about burning bridges is that you don't know that you burned too many until it's too late.
