Am I the only one that gets the feeling these riots have nothing to do with George Floyd at this point and are just a massive boiling over of tension from Coronavirus lockdown orders?

They are certainly extremely tied to C19, 'nothing to do with' is wrong.

I think the George Floyd killing is tied to C19 in it's extremity. To keep going like they did with vocal witnesses is very unusual.

The lockdown has affected both the police and public in a psychological way. We allowed ourselves to be locked up. At many levels our brains aren't happy.

Wearing masks has created change in protests and the way police act. It's anonymousing attackers and the attacked are also less human.
