Yes, after a few decades.

When I said things will never go back to how they were before I didn't mean "misery forever" - just that things like this create changes that never go back. Good/bad/who knows but it won't snap back to "the same". Do you think the post-WW2 world snapped back to the 1930's? No... it changed the direction of politics and society forever in various ways. Some for worse, some for better. Big things result in big changes, you can't wish that away. It'll never be 2019 again.
