“Yes. I’d like to report some people not living in fear”

The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic had some governments reward snitches—reporting on people leaving their homes to go outside, people not social distancing six feet away, people not wearing face masks, and so on. A meme showed a woman on the phone, saying, “Yes. I’d like to report some people not living in fear.”
     
“Yes, hello, police? Is this the police? Yes, I would like to report some people who are not living in fear. Yes. Thank you” was posted on Twitter by DarkPool on April 1, 2020. “Yes, I’d like to report some people not living in fear!” was posted on Twitter by Colleen Upton on April 2, 2020.
