As far as the United States is concerned, I am going to say "Yes".

For one reason, it's obvious when you look at Trump.

The Founding Fathers recognized the potential of demagogues like Trump seeking power and trying to become President, but, to them, it was unimaginable and thus unforeseeable to them that a man of mean would behave like Trump does. They assumed that the social pressures would force such a man to behave appropriately whatever was in his heart. Thus, they didn't feel the need to create adequate checks and balances on a man like him because they felt it would never be needed...

Well, they were wrong.

The incivility and idiocy among the US population is, to someone my age, shocking. We who are older think this:

With every passing day, I feel more confidant that I was right not to bring children into this shithole. I could see this coming more than 40 years ago and it did come...

Its hard to give a metric on people of today like with any period in time unless there is a historical landmark like with Hitler, Starlin or groups of people who both did pretty bad things that were cruel and more than rude. I think thought that ever since lockdown many people have increases in mental health issues which can look rude and sometimes cruel when these people are overmedicated, seeking housing and are in a survival mode most of the time. I do think social media has also been a big influencer for shallow seeking behaviour in this society of today, especially to young girls from ages say 13-25.

Yes, brutalization of society. It make society more easily to divide and to reign for elites. Smart and well educated people aren't necessary for most slave labor tasks but problematic if you want sell them bullcrap.

The result is hordes of idiots who fall for every social pressure and retarded ideologies. It's the majority rule, if majority is stupid they rule.
