To the marginalized citizens of Florida who bear the burden of poverty, the sting of bigotry or the anger of injustice, the status quo is unacceptable.
We live in a global, advanced technological civilization that supports nearly 8B people on this planet. "Civilization" is an abstraction. It's a framework of customs, conventions and agreements that permit the global interactions that support those nearly 8 billion people.
Abstractions are the most fragile of things. They don't exist in the world, they exist in the mind. They are ephemeral. If we destroy the abstractions that frame this civilization, then it will collapse, as all civilizations before ours have done.
Right now, those abstractions are being stressed. They're experiencing the "normal" stresses of competitive actors seeking advantage, and they're also being stressed by natural and man-made stresses in the "real" world. The pandemic is one, global warming is another.
