Spoiler Alert: If you haven't hugged your mom since a year ago because of the rona, you aren't that close to begin with. Don't pretend otherwise.

My mom is terrified of Covid. We still hug.
mine is too. She wont hug.
That's upsetting. Hope she comes around soon. The fearmongers (media) over Covid should be charged for all the unnecessary pain and suffering they've caused.
Like a lot of Boomers, they trust the TV and those on the TV claiming to be an authority/expert. The MSM and government tells them they should be fearful, they are fearful, the MSM and government tells them to get an experimental vaccine, they get the vaccine.
I thought a lot about this, and my assessment is: boomers grew up in a time when society, the MSM and government were a lot more trustworthy than now, not 100%, but a lot more than now. They grew up and lived in a more John Locke-ian society where most people had good will, and that formed the basis for a trustworthy society, MSM, and government.
They carried their trust of society, government, and MSM with them for many years. Because of that, now they still view the mentioned 3 favorably despite the obvious contrary evidence.
You're exactly right.
