It was shunned on and you were looked upon like a demon if you DARED to go out during quarantine. You would be kicked out of stores and businesses if you dared come in one without a mask or the proper apparel. This was not very long ago, for some places it wasn't even a week. Then the floyd protests happen and we went from these same people shunning you to these same people leaving their houses to mass congregate in groups of thousands of people, all close together, many without masks.
We've gone from talks of reopening to a full reopening of the nation all because the media wanted to do so. The worst part is nobody is really mentioning it, again their time is spent talking about BLM and police brutality and whatever else pertaining to that subject. The pace at which the recent events have unfolded proves just how much power the media has over society as a whole, for a "life threatening terrible destructive pandemic" to be thrown into obscurity in the face of "Go out and protest in groups of 4,000, which if you did a day before we told you to you would be arrested"
Media has so much power and influence it can change public opinion and influence their actions to parallel opposites in a matter of days. Just because the media shone the light on one black man and one video of the police choking him out it's like we've gone into completely parallel universes.
The worst part is that it's not like directly opposing political viewpoints are doing this, it's the same group of people who both shunned you during lockdown and are now going out into the streets to protest without masks. The exact. Same. People.
