New York Times weaponizes youth suicides to push for school reopenings
As the 2021 spring semester begins in the United States, the corporate press, spearheaded by the
New York Times, is seeking to justify the criminal policy of school reopenings on the grounds that school closures are leading to an increase in student suicides. In so doing, the media is deliberately obscuring the true origins of the mental health crisis affecting young people, while at the same time providing a pseudo-moral justification for homicidal policies that have led and will continue to lead to countless infections and deaths from the coronavirus.
About 150 Baltimore County residents attended a rally Saturday in Towson to decry extended school closures that they say are harming students academically and emotionally.
