Which part of speech is the underlined word in the following expression? 'But we get affected'

In 'we get affected', the word 'affected' follows the linking verb 'get' and describes the state of 'we'. While 'affected' is derived from the verb 'affect', here it functions as a past participle used adjectivally — describing a state/condition. In CTET answer keys for this paper, 'affected' here is treated as an adjective (predicative adjective) describing the subject's state. It is not the main verb (that role is filled by 'get').
