It's not actually a matter of where it happens but Why IT HAPPENS.
History is full of the repetition of people taking the easy way. Look at this quote.

“Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one’s self-image of standing for principles. [assuring extreme hardships and doom for your children] Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all.”
~ Michael Rivero

here in America I see it as a daily new clip. Covid 19 (and the fraud that surrounds it) is such an excuse not to think at all.”

I am harder on the massive number of cowards in my own country than I am on other countries with smaller populations, but in "Oz" (and in Germany, Spain Russia China and about 1500 others) we see what happens when cowards do nothing.
And the rabid defense (in word only,) of their cowardice is also as common as the sunrise. Because cowards hate the word coward.

Truth is calls "hate speech" by those that hate the truth.
