America is the closest to civil war we've ever had in my lifetime, many comments with MTG divorce comment, and people in Texas talk about succeeding from the union, and the machinations of the unpopular Florida governor.

With the information age, we're getting a lot of grimey stories of people doing horrible things, one on one personally. 

"100,000 children sexually harassed daily on its platforms" (Guardian).

There are certainly various information wars from Israel and journalists, to Elon Musk taking over Twitter to allow far right wing freedom of expression that is harmful. Russia and China are interfering in elections and it seems like some politicians are bought and sold agents of foreign countries.

Analysis:

It seems like Russia and China are aligning with Islamic nations to undermine Europe and America's open societies. It's dictators against democracy again, except democracy is rotting from it's head to some extent, people aren't making good choices, are being manipulated into bad choices. 

The war is with the open society, children, women, transgenders, immigrants, refugees. There is culture wars between the right and the left. We seem to have lost that "all for one and one for all" kind of WW2 thinking. It's us versus them and the us is a moving target, not the nation. 

The rise of far right wing Christofascist: Hungary, USA. I'm sure it's more. Hindu nationalism in India.

The far right Israel party in control doesn't represent Israel. Hamas doesn't represent Gaza. Somehow groups wrestle power from the people and make poor choices. 

Is it a widening and widening gyre can the center hold? 

Feel like the world has lost the thread of the meaning to existence.
