I think its caused by disenfranchisemnt. When you feel like you have no control or are involved in decision making, it's easy for that to break down trust. That's what I see in myself, and those around me.

I think we will find proof if we start digging into the flood deltas and the near shore oceans depths. The floods at the beginning and end of the younger dryas washed over most, if not all of the earths land mass, in a catastrophic way. The
