man we been at the precipice for ages and nothing has happened. biggest thing this decade was trump getting winged.
i’m not saying ‘nah never will happen’ but many ppl been at the breaking point for awhile, it’s hard to imagine atomised individual adventuristic violence will do anything at all
I think I agree with this in terms of an actual violent challenges to power through largely unorganized adventurism, but just the optics of of the near miss being a former president makes me think it will be infinitely more memorable to the average person.
Oh I don’t expect it to do anything productive- I’m just incredibly aware that a lot of people in the US were in dire financial situations prior to this ruling and will now potentially lose everything because of it and many of those people just experienced the most in-your-face adventurism attempt in their lifetimes. It’s those two unique factors together that make me think this could be especially unstable.

Even 2008 led to Occupy. Things did happen they just didn’t bring the results we want for obvious reasons but millenials were only the first generation to deal with late stage capitalism and I’d not say the US is in better shape in 2024 than 2004, absolutely no way you can point to any social indicator or internal political analysis.
Yes its not enough but you should expect an exponential increase as things get worse simultaneously. Student debt and healthcare were the traditional core issues for Bernie voters, but these days just affording rent and food is also a core issue.

imo summer of 2020 was bigger than trump’s near miss

We were literal inches away from a president being assassinated.
