Could be. No one knows what "the end" is. "End" of (?) Beginning of ... ? McKenna called it a point of maximum "novelty," which the universe is pulling toward increasing and accelerating interconnectedness, which eventually reaches an infinitely complex singularity. I think he called this the transcendental end of time, or something like that...
For America in particular-- where are these sullied cries? I read today that Wall Street expects Mr. T to be reelected. Business as usual. And apparently we like doing business this way. Or at least a so-called "majority" of us do (and Russian hacking be damned-- if WE, the GULLIBLE, are so intellectually flabby as to be so easily TROLLED like that, then that still is ON US).
Okay, so yes, it could be said that perhaps We, the Patient, suffered a temporary lapse of sanity in voting this guy into office-- you know, a WTF moment, throwing our hands up in disgust, anyone but Hillary, et cet. But in that scenario, the Patient comes to their senses at some point, and vows "never again," right? In reality, the Patient isn't responding-- not in that way. And THAT-- beyond the guy currently in the Oval Office-- I think is the deeper question. Why are WE sanctioning this behavior?
