thus is the nature of a moral panic, hence the adjective "panic" in the description
Let them panic in their own house, stay the fuck out of mine.
you just said it is way out of control, so obviously that infers that it's going to go where it goes without restraint

technically, the moral panic is not even breaking news anymore, why are you posting it in this thread ?

there's a moral panic in progress. We know. That's not news

It's the fact that it's so blatant and that they are starting to tell us what we can watch... how we are allowed to, and people are just accepting it mostly without argument. You don't think that is newsworthy?

constantly reporting on the panic in a panicky way is all part of the panic

so you are actually participating in the panic, fanning the flames

thus you are doing this to yourself, everybody else in the panic is doing the same thing

you're all doing this together, you are not the solution, you are the problem

it's not just the leftist Woke types who are panicking

they are inciting right wingers to panic in response

both sides are panicking, that is why it persists

that includes news which is trying to pander to you as well

left wing news is on a loop, right wing news is on a loop

the point is paralysis by analysis

to stop you from wandering off to do something more productive, keeping you looking at the screen instead

That is why the majority of my news I get is international and off-grid stuff, I dissect and use the thing between my ears to figure out the truth.

knowing the truth is overrated

a moral panic is about taboo

knowing that doesn't enable me to do anything about it

It depends, it matters what you do with the information that matters. Act upon it, or don't, that is up to you. What happens after the fact is what matters, in some cases not acting is the worst thing you can do.
