The very fabric of society frayed in a way that’s not easily mended.


I think it has more to do with a certain political movement than Covid.


Agree!

So was I in 9/11 and still broke in 2009. You go through few of those cycles before your turn comes.
2009 was by far the worst. Even minimum wage jobs were not available. Now you can work 3 of them.

You’re kind of dim, aren’t you

Things started to go south when some people were triggered by “hope”.

That was definitely a turning point in some ways but back then our enemy was external. We weren’t approaching civil war.

I agree with those saying that Covid and social media have destroyed society. I think AI and the current political environment is going to make it even worse.

I agree with this. But I think the social isolation/screen reliance wouldn’t be as bad now if Covid hadn’t happened.


Yeah, look at the vibrant 90s environment as portrayed in the new JFK, Jr. show - everybody is interacting, no noses in phones. We lost a lot socially since then.
