If you ever wonder how civilizations were able to reach enlightenment and then lost it all in just a few generations, we are now experiencing it in real time, and it feels as sad as I would have imagined.

@Ailantd I don’t think the things being lost in the US are also lost to humanity as a whole. Eg Canadian librarians will send books after the US stops burning. I don’t think there is much that is uniquely American that will be missed. Its brand of capitalism and imperialism and corruptible government is not that appetizing. If you think good things are being permanently lost worldwide, that’s different. Maybe the investment in infrastructure should be mourned. We’ll have to rebuild a lot of school systems, for example.
