I used to live in Santa Clara County/Silicon Valley and decided to leave both California and the country twenty years ago due to the hopeless ignorance and fecklessness about the events that happened 3 years before that. The 2001 Patriot Act was the absolute end of the US Constitution as the law of the land. In other words, the end of the US as the Constitution defines the US. No one cared, they were obsessed with getting rich from rising home values and taking out HELOCs to buy consumer goods.

I agree with you about the Patriot Act. I found it absolutely shocking.
