Stress, the rapid and sudden shift to everyone being part of an always-online culture, and the ongoing social disruptions. In all honesty, I believe that most of the online social / wrongthink scandals that happened in 2020 & 2021 would still have happened, but they'd be delayed and hit smaller niches.

The lockdowns were accelerators, not always direct causes. But we did all go insane.
