Grief/tragedy/sympathy machine

A machine that needs functional, cooperative parts to keep going.
If the coronavirus hype didn't keep going, people would begin to wake up. Therefore the grief/tragedy/sympathy machine keeps it going, keeps the misinformation spreading like wildfire.

Stack Trace

* A step-by-step account of how one got to the current topic.

From computing, where a program (usually with a bug) prints several lines of information explaining how it arrived at a condition it wasn't programmed to handle.
"...and maybe I should be working out more often. Uhh... Can I get a stack trace?"
"Sure. We were talking about how you were addicted to Netflix, then how you couldn't believe Blockbuster didn't read the writing on the wall, then you were talking about not remembering the last time you walked into a Blockbuster, and then mentioning the membership card is still in your wallet, and then you were reminded about your mortality because of how old that makes you."
"Oh, that makes sense. So, yeah-- you wanna go to the gym?"

Grief tragedy sympathy industry

Cops learn that if they break down and cry to a shrink after using their weapons, they get support, and both cops and civilians that know they will be on TV know just how to break down at the right time and "express" sorrow for what they did, thinking that will make them less wrong. When was the last time you heard a cop or a civilian that shot an unarmed protestor or black guy say

"Not a day goes by that I don't feel absolutely no remorse about what I did, they got what was coming to them!" The reason you never hear that on TV is nobody wants to make what's coming for them any worse than what it is, nobody wants to intensify what is coming for them.
Something you never hear on TV's grief tragedy sympathy industry-

Armed Civilian- Yea I shot the son of a bitch, so what, who cares. Gimme the electric chair, hang me, or shut the fuck up you fucking cunt!

Judge- I will do as you wish, I will sentence you to death, you will get what you deserve without further adieu!

Grief/tragedy/sympathy guilt trip

News stories that get more and more desperate until people submit into doing anything the media/government/healthcare industry/scientists want them to do.
Last week's grief/tragedy/sympathy guilt trip was a recycled story from the Trump era about a young guy that still thought the coronavirus was a hoax until he ended up in ICU. When that didn't increase vaccination rates, the grief/tragedy/sympathy industry got more desperate and had a guy talking emotionally about how you can save his one year old in Arkansas even if you live halfway across the country by getting in line for a vaccine. Just do what these people say and everyone will be okay, just meet their demands is what the grief/tragedy/sympathy industry is trying to prime people's subconcious with.

Of the things the grief tragedy sympathy industry shows you on primetime TV, the coronavirus statistics seem dull this time of year because they are all year, but it takes something like extreme weather to wake people up.
The extreme weather is a refreshing thing to see after watching the same dull coronavirus numbers and statistics bullshit that is aired by the grief tragedy sympathy industry all year since 2020.
