This decade in the U.S. has been a great lesson in how it's possible to create enormous amounts of unhappiness and social bitterness amid material plenty.

The Karening phenomenon is part of it. The perpetuation of Let's Go Brandon after it lost its satirical verve is another part. There's a sour quality to life, even in South Dakota it appears, and I believe it's different from how it was 4 or 7 years ago.

It feels like people are looking for someone on whom they can take out their political frustrations. HOA board is a perfect target.
