Yea, I used to hang out with people similar to that, not OCD-tier but just very righteous and judgmental, it didn't actually prevent anything it just made me more degenerate and made me really good at hiding my degeneracy by lying to their faces and I felt terrible each time. They no longer act like that and are now mostly normal but it was a very stressful period of my life, glad I got out of that.I really hate these moral police fundamentalists that Null has surrounded himself with. Their obsessive over-analyzing of every little thing he does down to and including whether he likes pumpkin spice and whether that projects the appropriate amount of masculinity they expect to see from him, it's really like a fucked up form of extreme OCD. I wish Null could see how these people he has surrounded himself with have stripped him of his humanity and empathy, but I think he likes having his heart crushed. He thinks this makes him a better, stronger person, when it just turns him into an over-anxious asshole forever terrified of being found out. These people will eat him alive if they knew what his regular life was really like and he knows it. Null knows that the purity spiral these fundamentalists are on will affect him eventually. Yet he wants this, which is why you shouldn't feel sorry for him, even when they do eventually learn the truth about him and proceed to cannibalize him.
I'm sure Null feels even worse since they're constantly checking on him, devolving into deeper degeneracy all while becoming more two-faced each time he talks with those people, it will be his undoing.
