    I think the double whammy of covid and trump was the tipping point for our decline. We’re just too close to it to see how quick the decline is in a historical sense. It’s only been 4/8 years depending on where you’re drawing the line and shits already so much worse

      I don’t think you are past the actual tipping point, just hurtling towards it, but I’m not entirely sure.

      These kinds of things are always more obvious 100 years later, in hindsight
