      Covid didn’t do it yet.

      You don't think so? Partly I ask this because we are not exactly done with covid...

        It put a dent in the states, that's for sure, but society is still functional. I mean we'll see what happens with covid but right now everyone is acting like it's over.

      I do wonder what the straw is going to be that breaks the camel’s back of societal cohesion.

      same. and wonder how close we are.

        I think it's going to come down to cheap entertainment and food being taken away. As long as you can keep people distracted from how miserable their lives are, the better. When people have time to think they have time to plan. You'd imagine the rulers of the USA know this, so you keep the people overworked, tired, and distracted with Marvel slop and Applebees.

          Food is the big one. A full belly is the strongest weapon in pacification.
