Hopefully, that’s the case. However, the past decade seems to show us, that if something seems hyperbolic, it’s usually rather serious at the moment. When I was hyperbolic any time in my life, I simply lied even to myself at that given moment, and I believed in that lie until my self-correction didn’t kick in seconds or minutes later. But it’s quite difficult to interpret the current political climate, if most people has such self-correction.
