I agree with how you feel breh. But, I think the reason you see this inconsistency is because there is no coordination and a lot of back and forth bickering, mainly fueled by political point scoring, that this shyt is highly dysfunctional now.
It may seem like I'm making a political statement but I'm really not. If you have ineffective management and you can view governors, congress, and the president as being like management, you will have disorganization and lack of focus among people who are looking to you for guidance. Most people are followers, so the people they look to follow are going to be steering their behavior.
Again not making a political statement just stating the facts how contradictory directions coming from multiple leaders can lead to just a haphazard way of handling the virus. But it may sound political because the best example of this is the president. You can't have your CDC director as early as this week for example say a vaccine won't be ready until 2021 and the best defense is wearing a mask and then to have his boss, the president, come out right after and say he is wrong and contradict only a few hours later. You can't get a focused solution and focused problem-solving in this environment. Until that stops, you will see the lack of consistency you mentioned.
But at the same time, I admit you need to be consistent on what you condemn and don't condemn. Someone posted a tweet after john lewis died from an everyday joe commenting he couldn't go to his grandparent funeral and he gets it because she wasn't famous and posted a picture of John Lewis funeral. I agreed with the sentiment but refrained from commenting since his death was still fresh. I still think the core issue though is politics muddying the waters which in turn leads to the dysfunction and lack of focus.
