It feels like the midterms ended the "Trump Era," and this is the real end of the 20th century.
Trump is the ultimate 20th century man: a boomer narcissist, real estate & casino & TV & golf guy, multiple wives & kids, oddly sincere with some values but also a total bullshitter. He's post-WW2 ethos played out to its fullest expression.
A new era is here, no one knows whats coming, but it's going to be different.
The End of "The End of History."
I'm long term very optimistic, but also as I've been telling you all for years: this transition is going to be EXTREMELY PAINFUL for most people.
Very few are ready, and even the ones ready don't know what's going to happen.
H/t to @rizomaschool@blockhead4000 for the idea.

@raggedyman74@RuddArjen Bro, if you don't think the hard times have started, do this:
Go read contemporary accounts of the fall of the Roman Republic.
It was slow, slow, slow, all at once.
Covid was the early warning trigger for anyone paying attention.
It's on.
