Why does the media talk so much more about the coronavirus than about the food lines, the evictions, the social consequences of all that despair? There are many ways to ruin a life and damage a nation.

They want us fearful to keep this to their advantage.

Manufactured consent is inversely proportional to class consciousness.
It’s because ALL those issues r the result of C-19. It’s really very simple...

I’d like to point you to the media hysterical coverage of Ebola that caused single digit deaths in the US. Anything that points out massive wealth inequality doesn’t get air time but something that can affect everyone regardless of wealth does.

Because the only way to relieve those evictions, food lines, and despair is to get a handle on the damn virus! 🙄

Replying to @marwilliamson
Because then people would get the crazy idea government is supposed to do something about it.

The collateral damage of depression, alcoholism, domestic abuse, financial devastation and even suicide has yet to be accurately measured.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Because it is their owners who have caused the unemployment the food lines and now the evictions!
