The thread title was the only part i agree with .. everything else you typed is hogwash .. The real problem is that America in 2026 has way too many low IQ voters, an inevitable result of the Gingrich-led slashing of education budgets in the 1990s .. on second thought, yeah, you might be right that it was a planned dumbing down of the voter base .




Also, Politics board .

The argument further treats immigrants as a largely uniform group characterized by low skills, low assimilation, and dependence on government programs. In reality, immigrant populations are highly diverse. Many immigrants start businesses, work in essential industries, serve in the military, contribute to scientific research, and achieve educational and economic success. Historical fears that newcomers would not assimilate have been directed at many groups throughout American history, including Irish, Italian, Jewish, and Eastern European immigrants, many of whom later became fully integrated into American society.


The modern crop of immigrants are definitely not here to assimilate

But to be a part of normal people country you have to be normal religion, normal weight (no fat chicks, you’re not a real man if you weigh less than 200 pounds)

Bless your heart.. it’s never been more *obvious* than at this moment, in 2026, that America is filled to the brim, absolutely chock full of undereducated dolts… just look at your own post as an example .

The average lifespan of a democracy is 200 years. So, USA has probably peaked.

Its been a good run.

While funding has grown. You are making a fool of yourself. We are getting less for more.

My post was in response to your connecting it to budget cuts.

Which, again, if you believe this in 2026, you're an imbecile (and the stupidity has nothing to do with budget cuts).

It's human nature to think that we're living through some super important pivotal point in history, because humans are really overdramatic like that.

I get this.

But define history. We probably are living through meaningful, perhaps pivotal points of American history. Maybe the aggregate western culture historical narrative. 20%+ foreign born Europe, from sub 5% not that long ago? Seems potentially pivotal.
