Why American Fascism Is On The Rise - Second Thought

It used to be true that violence in the US was on the decline. However, violence has now skyrocketed since 2020 due to the pandemic, rise in BLM and antifa riots, ever increasing rise in right wing threats and terrorism since the January 6th capital riot event, and the extreme divisions our country is still facing. These things may eventually be resolved some day in the far future, but by the time that happens all of us alive as of now will have passed away. I really don’t see how any American alive right now will ever get the chance to experience the kind of peace that we once had like during the mid to late 90s or early to mid 2010s.

The things you're talking about got a lot of media coverage but almost no one died. Anyone can claim anything; if you want someone to take you seriously you need to provide some evidence.

Not sure if you're familiar with Dr. K from HealthyGamerGG, but he's a psychiatrist with training as a monk who does a much better job (in my view) of articulating and embodying what Mr. Girl was trying to get at in that stream.

It seems like my intuition was correct, Mr Girl hates Dr. K and basically thinks he is doing the opposite of what he is doing:
