@JamesGleick The news media - particularly right-wing news media - is in the business of making people afraid of literally everything. Republican politicians rely on it too.
There's really no other explanation for the actions and attitudes of millions of Americans. Arming themselves to the teeth; afraid of anything "woke"; believing that American cities are war zones; etc.
