Interesting how the media is really pushing the hysterical “Corona case counts are skyrocketing”. You would think we are living in a zombie apocalypse or as if this was a virus like the one in The Stand. I do feel sorry for the families of those who died but I honestly feel if a democrat was in office we would’ve barely heard about Covid. I am not an Obama fan but I never blamed him when people died of Ebola, but then again the media wasn’t hysterical about it.
I honestly feel that if Trump would’ve been full of panic then the media wouldve totally downplayed this.
The media has been pushing it, and I've been hearing it from people in my life who have bought into this that the second wave is coming! Oh no!! Aren't those people in the southern states inbred hicks!? Look! There's people in the football stands not wearing masks! ITS ALL THEIR FAULT! OMG!!
I'm so fucking tired of it. For me, among the things that frustrates me the most is when covid fear-porn is used to justify total derision for people they don't like. I know it keeps getting brought up, but it's hard not to see it as a cult-like mindset. It's one thing to talk about it, its another to see it in person, and it's awful. I am really worried for the damage that is being done to our society.
It's also very cute they're hyping up the fear as we get closer to the election. I just hope sooner rather than later some of these folks realize they're getting played, but I'm also concerned too many of them like the excuse to be dramatic and horrible to others.
