Worst take on this possible but okay.

I first thought this article was going to be a metaphor tying individual narcissistic collapse to the economic upheaval.

That could be because - for example - there are now Tweets saying Hitler was misunderstood and didn't really mass murder anyone. And those Tweets are not being taken down.

I guess some people are okay with that. But you don't even have to be "progressive" to see the problem.
