So what do think is the cause for it becoming increasingly normal, in your opinion?

How’s that turning out?

Got on the subway today and one homeless person had the entire car to himself because he was yelling at no one in particular, unsteady on his feet, kicking the door and acting like a loon. I was just hoping he would stay in his own private car and not go exploring.

Don't worry, the problem is there aren't ENOUGH woke democrats in power. You see, if you elect more of them, all problems will magically go away and the unicorn farts will power one big carbon-neutral Norway-esque, border-free country full of diversity and woke-approved fun.

We should be so lucky. Becoming Norway would be civilization. Instead we seem to be aiming more for the Fourth Reigh.
