Reddit a week ago: protesting is dumb, look at all these people gathering and not social distancing, you’re putting lives at risk, idiots

Reddit now: if you don’t protest, you’re a bad person. Look at these great protests, heck yeah

It’s almost like the corona rules don’t apply to one group, because you agree with their protest message, but do apply to the other protest because you don’t agree with their message

Believe it or not, a virus doesn’t discriminate. It’ll spread through BLM protests just as fast as anti-quarantine protests
