Covid, and specifically the response, lack of response, and rollback of response, to covid, worldwide. So much unnecessary death for treats.
Defining moment of a generation, in the way that 9/11 was for the one before it. I don't even think we'll really understand the impact for another couple decades - and just like with other major events the ruling class will learn the wrong lesson entirely from it, probably something like "we should never lock down for any disease ever".
