What are we going to call the forever lockdown people? The problem is that there are going to be two classes of them: those who remain ever-afraid of the virus, who will only leave their homes very infrequently for years, and who are acting out of genuine fear (warranted or not).

And the other class will be the plutes/politicos pushing lockdown agit-prop at more normal people who aren’t actually afraid but who attempt to follow societal rules and social norms — and of course these plutes/politicos won’t actually be following these rules themselves, but will be spouting this nonsense because it makes them vastly richer.

Those who are truly embracing the pod lifestyle could be called “lockdown lifers” while the plute lockdown plotters could be called the “lockdown looters.” Best I can come up with right now.
