I think you’re underestimating the normalcy bias and overestimating how much the average person outside the US understands about what’s going on there.

I get it, but if you pitched this to a movie studio they’d say it was far fetched, so the average person can be forgiven, I think.

I read Gladwell already, which has its issues but taking at face value with a pinch of salt is good. I’ll check out the other one, thanks!

That’s really interesting, where did you read about that tipping point. I’d love to know more if you have a recommendation.

It’s hard for people to believe this kind of crazy though.

Fair enough 😀
