Honestly at this point you need to send some mental health professionals after them. They clearly aren't doing well and lockdowns broke something. Given the state of mental healthcare in Australia though good fuckin' luck.
My ex-stepdad was (supposedly from his mouth but I went no contact with him once he left) a huge conspiracy theory person. Vaccines cause Autism, Alex Jones was a huge presence in my house, anti-anything left of centre. Funny thing is, he's Canadian. But when he spoke to my mum about something she had contacted him about, he mentioned to her how the last lockdown at the time was what did it for him. And now he's "supposedly" not a massive conspiracy theorist nut job. So what I'm trying to say is, yes, I agree, we need mental health professionals working with these people. Because if I can go off my ex-stepdad and his problems, then I'm sure there's a large majority of these dickheads who are probably of similar or worse mental health.
they are beyond help mate. the only thing covid did was embolden them
