Let's first understand what is Art Block.

In simple words, Art block is what you experience when you really want to create art or do something but can't figure out a 'great' way to do it

You can figure out a good way, but you're not looking for that and hence, Art Block.

people do confuse art block with a sudden downgrade in skill or will and it is surely not that.

The thing that really has increased is polarization and the accompanying “everything is about everything” totalizing political conflict.

Polarization seems more likely a consequence of good information than bad. This creates a lot of very real problems for a political system that is not built to operate with highly organized, highly ideological political parties. But misinformation doesn’t seem to be a significant contributor to it. If anything, things are getting harder because information has gotten better.
