Mo, I was too tired of pandemic news to care.

I've noticed the fatigue, but I'm still waiting to notice the pandemic! (Funnily enough, the reddit version is the exact opposite, they're loving it)

Interesting that this narrative may be emerging as propaganda- the key is to think about what can emerge from these conditions, because sadly, what the media says, the masses feel. A population controlled by pandemic fatigue could be the second stage, after the stage of control by pandemic fear. Perhaps fear is spent on this, and fatigue is a way to re-collect 'swing voters' - those who will no longer give attention to fear, but will give attention to fatigue, before being suckered in.

Maybe we will see some proverbial dangling carrots? A cure not to the pandemic but to the pandemic fatigue. A light at the end of the tunnel.

Interesting take. Looking at twitter, it seems like moron doomers are using it to further shame people into complying, thinking that if we just “do better”, they’ll give us our freedoms back quicker. Absolute shit for brains

Yeah, so you reveal how "pandemic fatigue" can open up another angle for tightening the noose... It offers more opportunity to breed (and deepen) the compliance of compliant people. Every time they comply they eink further, so all the better to set up these opportunities instead of risking true rebellion which negates these issues by taking back what wont be given back.

I think the real charm of this as propaganda is to use fake concern/familiarity to offer something relatable to serve as a trojan horse. It's like when heroin dealers see a guy who has already quit, so offer some crack or meth knowing it'll lead them back to the heroin. (In this example, we have pandemic fear as heroin, and pandemic fatigue as crack/meth)

Also note the wording, we are to tell ourselves we are fatigued with the pandemic; in no way are we fatigued by the government. This is what you feel. This is why.

An ability to direct anger and attention...

Right now, if you look up the term, pandemic fatigue, you’ll come up with dozens of results, many published today, from just a few hours ago as I wrote the script for this video at 2pm eastern time on October 26, 2020. Although the term was used in publications before October, they are relatively few and far between. So why is it that just now, we are bombarded all of a sudden with propaganda pieces on Pandemic fatigue and warned of the supposed dangers we face because of it?
