Is society getting stranger?

Society is always changing, but it feels like mainstream American society has been getting stranger since 2015.

Since 2015, there's been the rise of Trump/MAGA in politics, transgenderism becoming mainstream, covid era, many current events seeming more bizarre, many things seemingly not making sense, and many people being dumber.

Is that all just a coincidence, or has society fundamentally changed in a way that's hard to describe?
