People being serious is great. People being reflecting and concerned about other people and not taking shit for granted helps us a lot. Too much inequality seems to make people reactive and anxious about where they stand and feeling like they gotta get to the front. Less inequality will help us.
So I think I lost my train of thought yesterday. I see AI, crypto and Trump as all part of the same psychic phenomenon, of fraud, lassitude and greed. This will fail at some point, and we will need (and definitely get!) a leader or leadership that shapes the opposition into an angry mob.
So that we don't merely try to repair the damage, but to purge the forces that caused it in the first place. Not show trials, hopefully, but aggressive legal action in exactly the way that Garland studiously avoided under Biden. A sense that we need to root out and punish the grifters and liars.
