Slightly different tack … by the time most people recognise a problem, and feel like it’s happening “now”, the reality is that it started long ago, has been ramping up gradually for a while, but most people didn’t want to bother thinking about or doing anything about.
Climate change being kinda obvious. The thing with Google and Chrome lately has been like 10 years in the making at least.
Generally, IME, when something goes wrong even in someone’s personal life … there was something wrong the whole time being ignored. Just recently I spoke to someone about a recently divorced couple who were buying houses and planning long term things months before the divorce. I pointed out that it had to be that way as they were desperately hanging on to the idea that the marriage can work when in reality it had died years before.
I had someone talking to me refer to 2020 as when the Black Lives Matter movement started and I just got so mad. I was just feeling like… Movements don’t start when you find out about them and join up. And also where you been? How much had this person been living with their head in the sand? It baffled me
Yea … it’s a thing … “history and reality are my history and reality” in some sort of narcissistic presumption of being plugged into anything that matters, when in reality, just about everyone knows very little of the totality of what’s bubbling along in human affairs.
