There's no such thing as an innocent bystander in real life. People are not animals, and are therefore not innocent in the true sense of the word. Every person thought to be a bystander has done something wrong in their life, and many if not most of them are usually not standing by in a passive manner most of the time, despite the bystander description some people use for them.
There is no such thing as an innocent bystander. To call someone an innocent bystander is to underestimate them.

To feel fear, or to feel threatened, from a situation that you have little control over or that you are not directly affected by. The overwhelming fear is usually not caused by the situation itself but by people exaggerating information to make you obsess over what's going on.
Bystanders Paranoia (or Citizens Paranoia) is different from feeling legitimate fear for yourself and your loved ones due to an outside force that has a significant of hurting you.
Bystanders Paranoia is fear that is, most of the time, brought on by political discourse, in which news sources and journalists over-hype to get you to feel more dependent on said news sources.
The fear will then cause the affected to spend every moment of their time focusing on nothing but how the news tells them to feel about the situation, afraid and unsafe.
Those affected by Bystanders Paranoia will be unable to recognize that the people telling them these stories are only manipulating their fear to get them to listen to more monotonous, disingenuous reports on the situation.
