It sometimes feels like we’re going down in a blaze of shit. We were supposed to be better than this by now. Not even just america, it just seems like our advances as a species mean nothing when a significant proportion are acting as badly or even worse than ancient peoples did.

And the rest of us are using our species’ advances to watch in real time and commentate, make predictions about what stupidities and indignities will be thrust upon us. It reminds me a bit of Wall-E.
