Why do you think political wisdom wasn’t applicable in 2016 and hasn’t been since?

I think that’s is really one of the most important things we need to try and understand and I don’t think it’s mainly due to the Internet being a factor.

The internet, globalism, the collapse of Rhine Capitalism in favor of neoliberalism and reactions against it, the lack of a clear ideological 'enemy' to face... it could be any number of things. All I know for sure is that we're living in 'interesting times', and it'll likely continue to be 'interesting' for a while before any new 'conventional' wisdom can be made.
