No, I do not think so. I am genuinely curious whether you actually mean it ... or whether you are playing semantic game.

Absolutely not playing a semantic game. I chose my side of this crisis -- but steelmanning your own argument and understanding the other side is good to do

   It was simple. People without ethical limits seen their opening to weaponize fear and discomfort ... and succeeded.
People without ethical limits = people not wearing masks and not practicing social distancing

weaponize fear and discomfort = get close to others (masked) in public and breathe in front of them
