I agree with all the above sentiments
Keep the population in fear, easier to control
The modern day version of the Roman notion of bread and circuses
In Ancient Rome each Roman citizen was entitled to a loaf of free bread every day and the circuses, gladiatorial shows etc was for entertainment, this way the population was kept compliant and distracted from what was really going on
The modern day version: give the people barely enough money to survive on in the form of COVID disaster payments (ie breadcrumbs) and keep them entertained to the point of distraction (reality tv, streaming services etc) along with the fear porn. Much easier to keep them compliant and controlled lest someone looks behind the veil to see what is really going on
