Is it falling? Feels like it’s just gonna prop itself into a fascist perpetuity like Russia or North Korea.

Without a shared righteous moral code, what else can we expect but men being wolves to their fellow men and a community's inevitable implosion?

It’s the perennial Problem of Evil (or, in modern terms, the problem of Cluster B Personality Disorders).

And nobody has ever been able to solve it. Not religion, not moral philosophy, not civic or moral education, not political philosophy, none of it. The sociopaths and narcissists will always infiltrate, corrupt, and eventually corrode, any institution, public or private, wherein they find they can gather power, prestige, and wealth.

Discover a cure for Sociopathy and Narcissism, and you solve 95% of humanity’s problems overnight.

Probably was, but you didn't have every single citizen, plebeian and slave following it live 24/7 with every single move by any member of the agora being scrutinised and memed to death.
