In fairness, I’ve lost coherence as well. But I was never tethered to much, so I’m just further unmoored and lost in that sea of “moral relativism” my right wing friends claim exists.
I see an emergence of new religions in this mess. People are grabbing onto concepts, shreds of movements, beliefs in the power of revolution... It’s all a hodgepodge because so many divisive events have never met like this. Ain’t Franz Ferdinand. No wars. Societies have to look internally and fix their own shit, rather than attack a foreign power. Much uglier. But also possibly much more positive in the long term.
But the competitive salesmen of orthodoxies in the moment need to be rejected in favor of more circumspect thinkers.
