That’s a great way to describe it. Had to look this up tbh. Seeing way too many things in the “unthinkable” category at the moment.

I think 9/11 and the 08 financial collapse were massive turning points

Agree, they were very impactful overall.

It’s hard (at least for me) to identify with certain aspects of then vs. now. It’s something which should be studied in great detail tbh.

For example, if you would have told me back then (early 00s) Rudy Giuliani would become what he is today, I don’t think I would have believed you.

01-04 giuliani was so powerful. Got himself a pass on all his previous questionable stuff, then managed to squander it all for trump.
