Maybe I went a little too far, but I'm frustrated because America has no reason to be falling apart. Young people aren't getting drafted for an unjust war, people aren't pushing around carts full of worthless currency unable to afford bread. The nation is falling apart because people are believing stupid sh-t on the internet. It's not very compelling in my opinion.
Not to go all Godwin but compare the conditions in Germany and Italy (two countries that at the time didn’t have a rich democratic tradition) that led to Hitler and Mussolini’s rises and compare it to the conditions we have on the the ground today and it’s baffling that people are so upset with the status quo they might seriously return to power a guy who tried to do a coup last time and has literally said the phrase “I will be a dictator on Day 1” on the campaign trail
