Nobody was there to police you for words or anything else you did.

On cue, i'd like to correct you on this.

After my fellow goth friend alvin was seen wearing a skirt on the weekend, our high school paid a christian youth group to lecture our entire grade. Their leader said they used to believe they were real actual vampires, but when his friend came home wearing a skirt, that's when he knew they'd gone too far and turned to jesus.

The satanic panic was also still going strong - i played d&d in the 90s.

People have always been trying to police others for some bullshit. It's easier online, but we got it done plenty before that.
