3. Workers are distracted because their bedrock reality is softening and melting

People drive while doomscrolling. Probably doing it on the job too.

Our jobs, our expertise yielding to AI, our spending power dissolving through inflation. Nothing is safe. Those in power could steal everything you own if they wanted to (and inflation is a hidden tax), the courts are not as strong as they once were. This is total societal breakdown. Products are disappearing from shelves. I hear the chatter standing in checkout lines. No one knows what to do.

So workers are not paying attention, or they are new workers. Many deported, replaced.

I do wonder though if wire services just get juiced by a subject and create a trend that's been going on all along.
