Triggered. If we are pathetic, then look forward to our enlightened successors.

I don't know what will happen in American politics, nor what effect it will have on the world or the permanence of those effects, but there are demagogues everywhere, America is not exceptional.

America is exceptional in that it is the global hegemon self destructing before our eyes and for largely nonsensical domestic reasons. That is exceptional.

And I don’t know about triggered, but rather just sad, because I was one of those people who really believed in the US at one time!

I look forward our new Chinese overlords.
