    It’s the looming boiling point. More and more people understand things are going to come to a head Sooner Than Predicted™.

    What we’re seeing is grief, but multiplied by billions

      Don’t know why you were downvoted but you’re absolutely right. We thought we were moving in the right direction, only to have the foundations blown out from under us.

        Not downvoted, I just remove the default upvote which comes with posts/comments, it irks me.

        To add to that, most of us didn’t have a say in things. Boomers were kinda’ the last generation who still had some controls at their disposal, but the system got completely out of our control from Gen X onward. We’re just along for the ride as it’s crumbling.

        Edit: I’ve realised this may sound as though I’m pointing the blame at Boomers - I’m really not, I firmly believe the game was rigged from the start, it’s not down to the average citizen. I was just trying to mark a shifting point.
