Seeing what is happening culturally and on college campuses gives me a sense of almost hopelessness.

It's almost scary to think about what things will look like a decade from now

We're not the first to go through this. We're just the latest.

I remember the 90's and early 2000's after the old USSR full and the citizens of Russia had had enough of the old communist ways. There were whole divisions of the old soviet army defecting with all their equipment to support the citizens. They really looked like they had a good chance to make great changes in that country (And don't get me wrong they did change a lot) but once Putin get control things started moving in the opposite direction again.

I don't think it's surprising the the USA is headed for something similar, but what surprises me in how soon it's coming to us. Remember the USA is a baby in county years. 247 years, The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 ended an 1100 year history. The Roman Empire spanned almost 1500 years.

they managed to:

Drop the birth rate into decline
Self sterilize many with bogus vax's
Ruined the economic structure
Saddle you and the future with un-payable debt
Destroy the election process
Destroyed most small businesses and farms
Make your food poison
Make your water poison
Make your air poison
Make medicine about "not curing" only $$$
Make many of your kids/grandkids hate you, and your value sets
Make young men and women "cut off their parts"
Make growwn men in dresses lap dancing on your 13 year old ok, (and have parents think it's ok, too)
Put porn in the kindergardens
Destroy our infrastructure thru decades of neglect
corrupt the churches
made satan worship cool, and Jesus worship removed

I could go on and on, but won't

and boomers, qanon, and the multitude of other excuses I see here are the reason it is how it is

but, in 2024 trump/desantas will fix it all, so lets argue about that instead

There Is NO COMING BACK from this. None.

A new society may rise from the ashes, but the country as we knew it is TOAST.

Soviet Union didn't even make 80 years.

During the communist revolution they rounded up Russia's royal family and slaughtered as many of them as they could ending the Russian Empire that wasn't even 200 years old.
