I go back and forth a lot between thinking people are losing faith in U.S. systems in record time, and thinking that I’m making up libidinal fantasies and overestimating the speed or extent of that loss of faith.

So what do you all think?

Nah look at the home ownership rate. There are still too many little suburban white supremacist enclaves of the middle class.

Hell look at a country like brazil where things are much more worse for a large part of the people. Still chugging along.

That’s what scares me most. Things here will probably just sink to the same level as places like Brazil in my lifetime, and never get any better.
