Community is the real problem.
People don't feel close to other people in modernised places. That makes it hard to organise collective action or sell collective messages.
Oh, you bring up an excellent point.
With rising fascism, has anyone else felt themselves grow more misanthropic? I’m not saying this is a good thing, but this is a personal problem I’m having…which logically means I don’t try to build any community where I can, even online.
This likely has cascading effects on society at large, because people then become more and more callous because they assume everyone is an asshole and…..ohhhh look at that I’m describing the base and superstructure again.
Doesn't help that most people have decided to stop believing in germ theory, either. It's hard to meet strangers when they're all trying to kill you.
