I think you can see the double-blowback in the COVID event.

For the Resistance themselves, COVID is itself the blowback. Something Progress was supposed to have "beaten", something that can't be easily contained or controlled - the best shot at doing so would have been, very early on, to shut down the borders... but that, you see, would have been racist.

For the freedom-loving alt-right monkey wrenchers, the response to COVID - i.e., the lockdowns and mandates - were likely the blowback, in much the same way that their monkey-wrenching was their response to the Resistance.
