📉 Polls show confidence in the U.S. is collapsing.

“With every increase in the degree of consciousness,
and in proportion to that increase,
the intensity of despair increases:
the more consciousness, the more intense the despair.”
— Søren Kierkegaard
We're not broken because we see the truth.
We're despairing because we finally can.
