The last 20 minutes or so are probably the reason this is being posted. I must admit, I haven't expected the otherwise snarky but not nearly malicious Alec to be pissed beyond recognition, but it's very clear why and how this came to be.

I actually posted this before watching it completely through… I was just reminded of recent discussions of EV vs ICE cars I have read here and Alec managed to put my thoughts much better into words than I could myself. After watching it through completely I just feel sad that what he needed to say out loud actually needs to be said at all as it should be obvious (coming from someone watching from the other side of the pond)

Watching from the other side of the pond as well and what Alec tries to get people to do is pretty sad because there is misnomer between action and reaction. While people correctly observe how the one side dismantles institutions and the very ground rules for being a civilized country, the other side has nothing more to offer than civility and evoking change by going through the very institutions that are being dismantled (which I'm absolutely sympathetic to, I prefer to stay civil whenever possible as well). But there is a real possibility that by midterms in ten months there will be nothing to be rescued by voting for a third of a congress.
