I think the fact that there's a new "shock" set of headlines every day expedites the crazy stuff becoming normalized. Mainstream media is complicit, in my opinion.

There is now a growing movement starting up to protest all of this. I just read the latest from Dispatches from a Collapsing State, and he was pretty spot on. All of these rallies by Sanders and AOC are fine for ginning up the angst but, there is no pointed mission objective other than to stir people up. If we're going to stand up to this we have to do more. I'm looking for other ways to be more active to fight this obvious coup taking place in plain site, beyond my weekly podcast. I'm also seeking places outside the U.S. I can escape to, if the need should arise. With my wife being an immigrant, and myself nearly so, I'm worried about our future safety if things get too out of control.
