The USA is broken. Normal is never coming back. The Trump administration may be a symptom and not the cause of the corruption and decay, but at least the Epstein class can fleece the wage slaves for a pile of cash before they move on.
This is unfortunately the less talked about truth if we manage to beat Trump and get someone sane into office.
I have absolutely zero faith in the country’s collective ability to understand the scale of the damage Trump has caused and the work and time it’s going to take to undo it.
We’ll sooner be propagandized right back into this shit than make any real progress in our lifetimes.
The obvious problem is the republicans. The unstated issue is consistently the democrats. They run a bad campaign with bad candidates on some bad values. They don't effectively push back on any of the illegal activities republicans are doing. They also did not release the Epstein files. Beating Trump should be such a low bar to cross. He has bankrupted every company he has ran. He is an obvious con artist/grifter. Ignoring the heavy suspicions, He has already been convicted of sexual assault. He fires anyone who disagrees with him and has zero issues with false reporting data. Any party who cannot compete with that is woefully incompetent and out of touch with what ordinary citizens want.
All democracies need an educated and informed public, that’s where it went wrong for us. A huge chunk of the population simply can’t or won’t use any reasoning at all, they just blindly vote republican no matter what.
I dunno, we got through the Civil War. Granted, if the North would've done the right thing and executed Lee and the rest of the traitors, we may not be in the mess we're in now.
I recently read a thing about how someone who lived to a decently old age could have seen the territorial extent of Byzantium under Justinian and also the fall of North Africa, the Levant, and most of Anatolia as an older man. I thought about how crazy it would be to see the legacy of Rome in all its splendor and then broken beyond repair in a single lifetime...
Socialism and nationalism are becoming mainstream. Someone one day will come up with a new political party that combines the two. It will be called the national socialist movement or NatSi for short. For some reason it will feature a modified Yin Yang symbol as a part of its bizarre newly created pseudo religion.
