The Republican combination of elitist money and racist votes during the unraveling was a problem.  The crisis is looking to trash both.  Not possible to go back to when America was great, but it is possible to go back into another progressive era such as the New Deal through Great Society.  I think solving the crisis problems could do it.

Again, democratic societies can change culture in the Information Age through protest and legislation.  Violence may still be necessary in autocratic cultures.  They just ignore the people.  We'll see how well Putin does with that.  Anyway, you'd be better off trying to sell your vision of living off the welfare of the state while declining real work in autocracies, but I doubt it will get far.
