  • fascism is on the rise across the world

  • Climate change has finally caught up with us in a big way with politicians still doing almost nothing to stop it or even slow it down

  • peaceful protesters are being labeled as terrorists and sometimes murdered while ACTUAL terrorists are protected by cops and half of the ruling elite

  • income and wealth inequality and thus poverty are worse than they have been since the great depression and it's only getting worse faster and faster

  • the financial elite and their imitators are profiteering away people's ability to survive and people are blaming it on the government spending money to help keep the victims of said profiteering alive

  • there's a war in Europe where the rich countries care about it and the political alliance that the aggressor belongs to has just expanded to consist of countries containing half of the people in the world

  • the least bad realistic option for US President is an octogenarian who entered politics before the invention of the pocket calculator and thinks the solution to police brutality is to throw money at cops

  • the other realistic option is the career criminal grifter leader of a Christofascist cult, who is also a malignant narcissist, a sociopath and as bright as Greenland in December

This isn't regular society, this is multiple crises piled on top of each other and about to explode into even worse catastrophe.
