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.
