Most of the lefties I know are already canceling the holidays. A lot of them don't have kids or a spouse, so this means literally no Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's of any kind. That's some next level cultural/family atomization. What happens to people when they're isolated to this degree? I think we're about to see an historic uptick in suicides, domestic violence, and violent crime.
This will mostly happen to leftists because conservatives are saying fuck it and having their holidays anyways. So if Trump wins, and the lockdowns continue (because they are almost entirely political), on top of the immense lefty depression brought on by the victory of literally Hitler, we could have a real problem in our hands.
You're right that it's only slightly a joke. I wouldn't call it atomization, I would call it isolation and dependency on their ideologues for emotional affirmation.
