When the world stops turning

Lis­te­ned while wri­ting this post, try while rea­ding it :o)

This post is the eighth of a series of ten posts about cer­tain aspects of our lives during the COVID-19 cri­sis. These posts must be read in order, star­ting with the 6th post would make abso­lu­te­ly no sense to the rea­der. Enjoy rea­ding and above all, enjoy reflecting.

But when the union forms an image of strength, a social net­work such as Face­book or Twit­ter can only give a dis­tor­ted pic­ture of the situa­tion. First­ly, it is impos­sible to know whe­ther people disa­gree with a situa­tion or a deci­sion given the absence of an “unlike” but­ton. People can still com­ment to sug­gest a disa­gree­ment. Unfor­tu­na­te­ly, in the com­ments sec­tion, there are com­ments both for and against, so it is impos­sible to know the public opi­nion unless you read through the comments.

Rea­ding these com­ments, it would take only a short time for an infor­med rea­der to see that the level of the inter­ven­tions is not par­ti­cu­lar­ly deep and that anyone who tries to dive into them would inevi­ta­bly break their neck. You could even say that wal­king on water would be pos­sible without any illu­sion. In these waters, our elec­ted offi­cials must try to navi­gate, and against all expec­ta­tions, they find them­selves in a posi­tion of ulti­mate power, per­haps remin­ding the people that their vote may have more of an impact than it seems.
