Crises, both real and imaginary, are everywhere
Crises, especially those which are constructed to tell a narrative, are used to garner attention: as media has proven time and time again, urgent crises will draw readers, listeners, and viewers, as they hang on the edge of their seats, waiting to see if they have actually been invaded by an extraterrestrial (War of the Worlds broadcast, anyone?). This is an especially powerful tool when there are multiple crises, such as the "Once glorious kingdom under threat" narrative combined with a real, tangible, and physical crisis, such as global pandemic. By compounding these crises, leaders can solidify power in an urgent fashion.
However, as we will reiterate throughout this multimedia experience: refuse constructed crises.
