The political culture and overall social ecosystem of the United States is currently in shambles, having faced a brutal one-two punch of the COVID-19 response (and its resulting political fallout – largely conservative if not outright reactionary) followed by protest and unrest over the murder of George Floyd. Instead, these chaotic events identify a concrete opportunity and example of a phenomena previously discussed, cheekily referred to as being “ kicked while down” – where an adversary takes advantage of conditions to execute disruptive actions to exacerbate such conditions to cause ever greater harm.
Adequately parsing and analyzing these events, their motivations, and what lasting impacts they may have will be the work for others.
My country, the United States, has experienced days of disruption and discord not witnessed since the late 1960s across multiple municipalities and regions.
