I genuinely believe that this has the potential to be a turning point in human history.
Not one that will be particularly noticeable as Biden will just be normality, including all the flaws and bad things that come with 'normal' politics.
But the fact that America is not continuing down the path of normalising hate, poison and a complete lack of decency or empathy means that it doesn't embolden further politicians, or just people in general, to copy this behaviour or view it as an acceptable.
It saves us all from continuing down a path to a dark place (of course, everyone always still needs to be vigilant of this as the possibility will always exist).
Of course that behaviour will still continue as there will always be horrible, immoral people amongst a large population.
But the consequences of the most powerful and famous person in the world being such a disgusting person cannot be underestimated.
(Obviously, some of the political decisions he has made are equally disturbing but can hopefully be reversed/mitigated to some degree)
