  1. Just amazing the difference a decade makes, right? Or how much things remain the same depending on perspective. Almost 10 years ago, the US got attacked by international terrorists. This gave birth to an entire security theater, total erosion of individual privacies, barriers and walls built to protect themselves and all that. International terrorism never ended, and it consumed most of the decade. Yes, Bin Laden was killed, but we've learned that the hydra lives on, it doesn't end. We never found out a way to end this, and perhaps we never will. A decade later, after 4 years of signs and multiple cases happening, the election of a lunatic and all that, domestic terrorists attack the Capitol by order of the president himself, entire governmental sectors got dismantled and taken over by people who believe in the most absurd stuff, and the democratic process is crumbling down. Actions are being taken yet again too little too late, this will likely continue going on for the next decade, and it'll likely be a repeat of the past decade, only this time it's right inside the country. Trump leaving presidency won't end it, no matter if he's impeached or not, arrested or not, properly take responsibility for his action or not. This is yet another type of terrorism that doesn't let go, won't finish with heads taken down. Institutionally and fundamentally, it is already worse than 9/11. The anti-american violent uprising is coming from inside, and much like other terrorist organizations, this also works in cells and via information and recruitment networks, brainwashing people and appealing to undue faith. And looking at it a certain way, with all the actions and inactions the president took with the pandemic, it potentially already also is worse in number of lives lost too. But this time, a whole ton of americans are to blame for it too. All of this is happening in the richest, most powerful country. If this was fiction, I'd say it violated my suspension of disbelief, so absurd it is. But it's reality.
