Absolutely horrifying to watch the distillation of all of this in such a short video for what it covers. I cannot see how we can recover from this. We cannot even pause the rage-filled infighting on the left for a day. I've had to block dozens of Lemmy users because of this. Everyone is so upset they're willing to blame anyone in sight for what's been happening basically since 9/11. I think our reaction to 9/11 is what destroyed us. It just played out over a few years. The surveillance state was necessary to get to where we are so it was the first step.
