Reddit is full of people celebrating his potential death. There are some who compare him to a mass murderer who killed 200k people on top of racist, fascist, nazi etc.
Apparently, if comments are to be trusted, there are people who go out to celebrate him getting Covid in Australia and Canada.
How in the world did people get so seriously unhinged? And how did the Trump is evil propaganda got so wide spread?

People were always evil. This is why we have wars, violence, crime. We just used to live in the West, since the end of the cold war, in this strange peaceful times... Now we are just coming back to what it always was: a violent fight for survival and resources. Europe is peaceful but meanwhile in Lybia there is a civil war. The US is peaceful but in Mexico drug cartels are vomiting atrocious crimes. The West was an island, a strange island, that will soon join the rest of humanity.
A return will just mean a repeat of what's happening.
Those values are collapsing now because they were unsustainable, they burdened the hard working and kind hearted and had too few measures to punish the selfish and cruel. So the worst of humanity ended up in power because they just had to wait for the well intentioned people to wear themselves out trying to maintain constant vigilance and providing for everyone else. If we want lasting peace we need to learn how to deal with bad actors cost effectively so they don't automatically win the war of attirition.
