Feel like one could get pretty far in explaining the Trump restoration as a mass-psychological attempt to retcon the pandemic away and undo MeToo

Activism needs clear goals to channel the energy into, both metoo and BLM didn't have clear cut policy goals or political campaigns.
As far as I can tell this is exactly how it went down in Germany the last time. The GWOT was our WWI, and as usual Hitler isn't so much a singular person but the loudest asshole who the more timid assholes can project their frustrations onto.
