Don’t talk about it! 🤫 Hide it! Pretend it doesn’t exist! Shoot it, arrest it, prosecute it, imprison it. Make a profit from it! Blame political party for it!
Wonder why the problem never goes away 🤔 fashion elaborate conspiracy theories. Complain about it!
Repeat.
American society and governance is thoroughly dysfunctional and that’s why it’s a failure.
American society and governance is thoroughly dysfunctional and that’s why it’s a failure.
Covid transformed into a pandemic because the US, like many other “western countries” have reached a breaking point of dysfunction in policy making, billionaire capture of the government, and general quality of life for average people.
In that sense a disease like Covid was inevitable, the stage was set and all ready to go before Covid even showed up.
In the wake of Covid becoming a massive pandemic there was a moment where American society eased up grinding people to dust with covid relief checks, eviction bans, work from home accommodation, childcare support, free vaccines and other policies. It was a chance for American society to realize how insane a for profit healthcare system is, but the door was slammed shut by the ruling class as soon as they could.
We are in a weird moment before a broader societal collapse, the ruling class is telling us the economy is doing great and that we are out of the pandemic but the average American is extremely beat up right now and not doing good but nobody is really acknowledging that on a broader level. Everybody is suffering in their individual lives not being able to afford rent, healthcare and any number of other necessities not to mention they are too tired to socialize with friends and family. It is a mercy we have smartphones to zone out on at the end of the day after a long day of work when we are too burnt out to participate in our lives….
We are at a moment where Americans are drowning and just physically can’t tread water for that much longer and centrist democrats like Biden are completely unfit to meet the gravity of it (republicans even less so).
We just have to hope that when we reach that breaking point that it creates the opportunity for progressive change and it doesn’t just send us spiraling into deeper levels of hell.
Yeah gotta love the American approach.
