Not just truckers, everyone. These are manchildren who have never been told no when growing up, their shitty parents catered to their every whim. Now they're physically grown up, emotionally stunted, and they demand that society as a whole keeps doing what their mommy and daddy did. They see everyone as a utility that only exists to serve them. They're narcissists.
In a sane society this wouldn't be a problem, because these people would be extremely rare and serve as a warning to others; adults would scorn them and children would throw eggs and rotten fruit at them if they dared show their faces in civilization. In clown world, these people are the majority of the electorate.
A society cannot be sustained by members with this level of ignorance. Whether you phrase it as "oh China is going to eat our lunch" or "2nd Civil War coming", it's clear that America has become decadent, and its citizens are enjoying a level of privilege that is simply undue. America is burning through the "capital" built up by previous generations. I'm afraid only hard times can build strong men again. Lamenting it is like lamenting a tide coming in to flood your sand fort.
