“Too big to fail, [America] lumbers on at the expense of the lives of others.”
The new world order involves ordinary people living their ordinary banal life as though everything is fine and they are the pinnacle of modernity. They simply have no true power over their natural destinies. Their rights of consent, even lawful recourse are inhibited by invisible rules and consequences that swallow up dissonance with a shrug, an eye roll, and a yawn from the rest of the population who is more satisfied keeping the comforts and conveniences they have been allowed.
Rather than the George Jetson future we strive for, we will have a ~1950s peak society with technology and features relegated to gimmicks or class perks.
