I have a theory that commentators these days in Western-style democracies are still operating on the idea that the people are actually living in a democracy. The law. People's lives mattering. Nah...
Sadly, living in a democracy entails paying real attention, taking some responsibility and speaking up, and we're really really bad at that. The commentators are only speaking to those seeking reassurance from what they see feel and know. I sometimes wonder if our culture will survive long enough for this time to be studied.
