    True. Maybe I worded it wrong. I’m not good at that stuff.

    It reminds me of 9/11 and how “freedom” changed after that. There’s probably an age barrier to that. And I was young at the time too but still old enough to know freedoms left after that day. Regardless of political views things were different with no option of going back. Kinda like a small spark of life within humanity died.

    And kick started the social unrest as we know it today that hasn’t stopped since.

    I’m not even sure how to think about it… But I know life since has felt unstable and teetering on civil war.

    Again, no matter how you look at it. Left, right or center. It’s not a political thing.

    It’s not a political thing, as in the fact he was the tipping point. But politics since hasn’t been the same. His actions were used for wedge politics and marketed news as leverage for the reactive emotional extremism that we have today.
