The problem with the “it’ll go away at some point” is that the “at some point” might be much longer than what a few years.
This period feels to me like some “calm before the storm” or a “slow motion car crash”. We have AI possibly disrupting a lot of the service economy, while automation is slowly eating away the manual workers jobs, possibly resulting in mass unemployment. People are really fed up with politics and electing more and more nationalistic/extremist politicians because they don’t feel represented.
The economical crysis and this dissatisfaction is an environment very similar to when hitler got elected.
Last time we had millions of people dying and europe being destroyed, what will it take today to remove a dictatorship in the biggest military spender of the world? Who is going to save the US if it slides into dictatorship?
