The idea for this article emerged from a twitter conversation with Jonathan Simon. He tweeted that humanity seemed on a path for certain doom and the U.S. was swamped in a kakistocracy, a rule by the worst.

I’m not in any way disposed to dispute the fact that the U.S. is rapidly backsliding (almost eagerly in fact) into fascism.
