This.

We have an absolutely wrecked educational system that nobody can think anymore. People have either working lives that occupy them 99% of the time and they can't make informed decisions, or are suffering from 10-second attention-spans and can't focus on any political messages past "I am the greatest, vote for me" and the fact that is the literal message that won an election, should terrify us all.

If we have a really big challenge, like a novel new virus or disease, in our current state with our current leaders, millions would di- oh, wait, what? I'm being told this already happened.

Well, if something else really bad happens then we'll have similar or worse causalities.
