I haven't seen a single shot of these protests around the world in my local news. This is what is meant with the phrase "the revolution will not be televised."

Some elucidation: I live in Finland, a country in Northern Europe. Last summer, during the BLM protests/riots/whatever in the US, a day wouldn't go by without seeing footage from them in the news.

Everyone was talking about them, applying the dynamics present in the US to our country (which, frankly, is a bit out of place here). With this issue however, it's crickets. Nobody with prestige dares to say anything contrary to the general view. That's what's really scaring me.
