Aug 2020: DeSantis says we will never do lockdowns again. “I cringe” when hearing people talk about shutting down the country. Oct 2020: Trump uses the last debate to brag how we shut down the country to fight this horrible disease after seeing some scary modeling.

🧵THREAD🧵 “15 days to slow the spread” kicked off four years ago Saturday, sending the media into perhaps its most deranged cycle of my lifetime. I dove back into some of the worst lockdown media coverage from those early days. Buckle in, this one’s long. ⤵️
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
The real worst of the coverage was when states started reopening. The media outrage was palpable. Republicans wanted people to die, we were told. Remember @TheAtlantic’s “Georgia’s Experiment in Human Sacrifice”? You may’ve forgotten how wild the text of it was. I did. https://t.co/vJSpfbSRo8
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
But that wasn’t a one off sentiment. The belief four years ago among the media was that allowing people to leave their homes was tantamount to killing people. @washingtonpost called it a “deadly error” — not in an opinion piece, mind you, but in a “health” news headline. https://t.co/glcV9j2cKK
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
What we should’ve been doing instead, to hear the press tell it, was employing “harsh steps,” @nytimes said. “Americans must be persuaded to stay home” and “travel restrictions should be extended” they said. https://t.co/7MM2v07hum
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
@politico thought the same thing. In their magazine, the outlet called for a “national quarantine” which they dubbed a “common-sense” approach. https://t.co/LKnHLjUU0n
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
@CNN was among the most crazed. They went after the supposed morality behind the “Open it Up” movement, which they called “downright dangerous.” The people who thought it was okay to go outside were “downright dangerous.” https://t.co/631gWX81BQ
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
I want to pause here to point out something important. Yes, Covid killed millions of people. But this wasn’t the bubonic plague we were talking about. And states like Florida were able to safely reopen, as I, @CurtisHouck and others pointed out back in the thick of it. https://t.co/SgtxZOkAAA
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
Anyway, back to the coverage, because it was just so ridiculous. @USATODAY kept with the deadly theme, calling reopenings “Russian roulette.” Again. This to describe letting people go to stores. https://t.co/y5DmCmIWez
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
You can’t overstate the fear mongering from the press. Here’s @TIME giving tips and tricks to how you can stay hidden in your home if your state reopens. The picture selection to accompany these pieces is an editorial choice. https://t.co/HuAvlJAiR0
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
And, of course, reopening was racist. You may remember that, in those halcyon days, everything was — this was the summer of race after all — and reopenings and lockdowns were no exception for @voxdotcom, @AP, @NewsHour & @Salon. https://t.co/AbnIKk8N1G
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
But the craziest example is from @ABC. Whenever I see “analysis” in a headline, particularly about news that intersects with liberal sacred cows, I expect what follows will be preposterous. This was no exception. https://t.co/pg0RLSEsva
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
You may think the 33 word headline from @BusinessInsider is bad, but the photo selection really elevates the embarrassment all involved should feel about the choices made for this piece, in retrospect. https://t.co/kjCDVpvTr3
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
Like the Business Insider piece, lots of outlets really leaned into the panic porn when it came to reopening schools. @Reuters made sure to include the case counts as a counter to Trump in the headline. How they wanted their readers to feel about his comments is clear. https://t.co/fMldWE2Ezq
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
Maybe they were channeling @rweingartin, the head of the teachers association and then-media darling. Remember when kids were going to be fine even if they had to sacrifice because they were “resilient”? I do. https://t.co/wUfvdAdbqz
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
A quick aside: @rweingarten has taken to claiming that she and her org always wanted to keep schools open. It isn’t true. Weingarten long pushed for schools to be closed. This is why I take screenshots. https://t.co/hn60XklVAQ
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
There were lots of other outlets who pushed to close schools. Here’s @CNN, advising their readers that schools weren’t safe for kids. https://t.co/o974lksUEY
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
@ABC fact checked the idea that kids got better faster, calling the claim “misleading.” It wasn’t. Even the Times admitted - again, this isn’t hindsight - around the same time that kids recovered quicker. But ABC wanted to stoke fear. I can’t see another explanation. https://t.co/dpJm2Qawmq
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
@washingtonpost called school reopenings a “fantasy” https://t.co/0svjEV3l7A
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
I’ll let this @guardian headline speak for itself. https://t.co/8czuBqznEN
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
It’s an understatement to say there were consequences to the lockdowns the press cheered for. Learning loss devastated kids. For the rest of America, lockdowns had a huge toll on mental and physical health. https://t.co/X3RZXafWK4
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
None of this should’ve been a surprise. We knew that lockdowns had serious consequences. I wrote about it for @nytopinion…in 2020. https://t.co/s3DKWzKU2y
@DrewHolden360 - Drew Holden
You probably won’t be surprised that, even after the consequence became clear, the media haven’t learned any lessons. The outside still isn’t safe, so say @nytimes, @washingtonpost & @CNN. These were just last summer. Will the press ever get over it? I’ll bet the under. https://t.co/5CwnwKRtR5

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is now comfortable telling you the truth about the government's lack of authority to enforce mandates: "Government had no capacity to enforce any of this [mandates]. You must wear a mask. People wore masks in New York. If they said 'I'm not wearing a mask' there was nothing I could do about it. You must close your private business. 'I won't'. There was nothing I could really do about it. It was really all voluntary. It was extraordinary when you think about it. That society acted with that uniformity voluntarily. Because I had no enforcement capacity. So you have a reduced trust in government." Yes, people have a tendency to distrust the government after learning they were lied to for years. Unless you're a Stockholm Syndrome Democrat.
