That is when I became disillusioned. Before BLM protests I was on board with the social distancing thing, but seeing actual healthcare workers outside in crowds cheering on protesters made me realize the whole thing is a scam.
The Floyd riots in retrospect is even worse for America than it was initally, because that event shattered whatever unity America could have had against the lockdowns. Before, anti-lockdowners were easily painted as people who were mad they couldn't get haircuts. And then all of a sudden a million people pack into a street and are praised for it, in the middle of "The most deadly pandemic".
How do people not see this is overblown. A deadly virus but it’s ok to gather as long as you have the right viewpoints

watching the media shift in real time was amazing
"protesting is a moral evil, you want to kill grandma for the sake of vanity"
"not protesting is a moral evil, you want to kill black people for the sake of racism"
