With the latest news that over 4 million people resigned in August, and the WHs desperate attempts to talk about covid vaccinations over the border, the economy/shortages and Afghanistan, I wonder if they're just paralyzed.
I mean it's equally likely that setting fire to their own house and watching it burn was their plan, but I can't help but think that they didn't expect this massive cascade of problems all at once within a rough 6 month window. Now it's just gotten so out of control that they've just decided to not fight the inevitable and curl up in a ball and hide.

It's kind of felt that way ever since Biden had that vacation and Psaki screwed off to God knows where right when Afghanistan fell. More than usual, I mean.
That reminded me of the collapse of the soviet union when in Moscow the TV began to play Swan Lake in a continuous loop for three days, and when it stopped the government went AWOL and was gone. "My Perestroika" - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1557720/
The Afghan episode really scared me; the US government went AWOL. I've never seen that happen before.
A lot of people like to compare the current situation to the fall of the Roman Republic, but I feel like this is the end of the Empire. The question now, is whether we will be consumed like the Western Empire or fracture and continue to bear the torch as the Eastern Empire.
I'd say this whole presidency.. I'm worried ngl, from Biden having handlers and saying he'll get in trouble if he answers questions, to them going AWOL right when a president needs to take action.. It's like there's no one actually running things and the federal government is the equivalent of a headless chicken, and simultaneously there's a secret cabal of politicians and bureaucrats """"running""" everything from behind the scenes.
I don't know which should worry me more. Both have awful implications and clearly have awful results regardless of whether it's one, the other, or both of those.
And to think we aren't even through the first year.
