How did the world start to turn ugly and to show its gloomiest parts and to put in light and to put to light of day the darkest sides of humanity?

I always thought it started before that.

Obama exposed many Americans for who they really are. I remember saving seats for the 4th of July parade next to a father and his two adult sons. Nice guys. But they idly chatted about assassinating Obama.

Then, (god forbid), a woman almost became presidents.

This made things even more ugly. We got Donald Trump: mafia spokesman, pedophile, and rapist as our president. This inflamed a whole different group of Americans.

The wildfire keeps spreading. The "south" is eventually going to win the battle.
