I think a lot of people have a wrong idea about is that they'll recognize when their country corrupts itself. That getting groceries will just somehow *feel* different for them.

What's hard to fathom is that there very well might be *no* immediate personal impact for them.

This is why attending to the marginal in society produces clarity, whereas distance inhibits judgement. Reliance on personal experience produces a myopia that's exacerbated to the extent it's distanced from this exposure.
