These are dark times to be sure. Societies are unraveling which is largely being driven by economic forces. The majority of the population is in the 'have-not' category which is unsustainable.
No great surprise then that the countries with the highest degrees of unfairness are having the most internal turmoil. The US is living through the consequences of letting its working class carry the brunt of decades of poor policies and abuses by its ruling class.
It's all coming to a boiling point which is why tempers and outrage are being fanned to keep the people from revolting. Social media has become a cesspool after its humble beginnings of simply trying to keep up with friends.
What happens now and when is anyone's guess, but if we base ourselves on the old authoritarian playbook, at a certain point you pass a certain limit and the dominos fall quickly in succession.
