DIANE BEDERMAN: COVID’S PRIVILEGED OPPRESSORS
https://dianebederman.com/covids-privileged-oppressors/
Covid’s privileged oppressors are sanctimonious, self- righteous, self -serving people of every race, colour creed and sexual orientation; most often found in mainstream media, politics, Hollywood, and some in the general public. They rant and rave and lecture us about masks and social distancing and hand washing, scream about the number of new Covid cases and Covid deaths (would that be deaths from Covid or deaths with Covid?) and then yell at the rest of us for not following the rules (as if they do), while threatening lockdowns and then locking down.
All of these lockdowns are easy for Privileged Oppressors; politicians, public health experts and the well-to-do. They will not suffer from them. Their lives have not changed. I know people who spent the Covid lockdown redecorating and remodelling their homes. In the summer right up to mid-November, they played golf and went bike riding. Their lives are just fine, thank you. I doubt they have ever spoken to a shop owner holding on by his fingernails who knows he cannot withstand another lockdown. But they are quick to attack those who do not follow the rules. Blaming them for Covid.
These Privileged Oppressor politicians and public health experts get a regular and often rather large pay-cheques (Governor Cuomo is getting a $25,000 raise) and preach to others while not following their own preaching. Think California Governor, Gavin Newsome(fancy dinner party), Nancy Pelosi (she had to have her hair done),Chicago Mayor Lighthouse (needed her hair done as well), Gov. Whitmer (non-stop lockdowns and laws while her husband flaunts them).
