On quick reflection, yesterday was a (but not *the*) great release: an acute, final breakdown/shattering of Trumpism & the mirage of its social power. Between Georgia culminating Trumpism’s destruction of the GOP, then the Capitol, the spell has been broken.
I was asked whether today was "the great release". Think fractally, we see 3 nested complex adaptive cycles: today was an acute release of the past few week's frustration cycle; it was culminating release of 4 year grievance-euphoria; & an event in multi-yr national great release
