I remember your name, so I'm not going to waste a huge amount of time, but yeah, I do remember people cheering Covid when they worked out it killed old people. I seem to recall several comments about it being some kind of karmic payment for Brexit, in the stuff I'd read.

So yes, these people do absolutely want you dead. They may not want to get their hands dirty themselves, but that's I think more them being squeamish than any sudden outbreak of morals on their part.
