This essay hits the spot today. I have similar observations and they extend much further back than the past three years. You are 100% correct that we are meant to be learning something from recent events. The tendency of all of us to blame some other for this is treacherous. I think the responsibility is on each of us - including each of us who is very likely more in the right here. This is why mass delusion is so attractive here. It extends father back in time and across many frontiers we may well not want to consider. There is an elephant in the room we do not want to see.

Great article Ely. A worrying summary of how the world has changed during the last three years. I suspect that everything you mentioned was already going on to a much lesser extent, mostly covertly. Not now though. They don’t care who knows it.
