    It’s the idea of the frog in the boiling water.

    The water is already 208 degrees man. This country is the montage in the opening scenes of a dystopian film as it is.

    Crumbling infrastructure. Natural disasters. Civil unrest. Disease. Tense international relations. Food costs escalating, and only to get worse due to changing climate.

    Except in the experiment that coined the phrase, the frogs jumped out. We ain’t jumping. We’re acting more like crabs in a bucket.
