American Culture in 2018: A Culture "Yearning to Give Up"

The Poison We Pick (Andrew Sullivan) from New York Magazine
"The scale and darkness of this phenomenon is a sign of a civilization in a more acute crisis than we knew, a nation overwhelmed by a warp-speed, postindustrial world, a culture yearning to give up, indifferent to life and death, enraptured by withdrawal and nothingness. America, having pioneered the modern way of life, is now in the midst of trying to escape it."
