re: Anyone in here feel any hope for the future?

I saw this the other day that I think may be relevant:
Among U.S. adults who use Twitter, the top 25% of users by tweet volume produce 97% of all tweets, while the bottom 75% of users produce just 3%, according to an analysis conducted over a three-month period in 2021.
So 20% of the US uses Twitter. 20% of those users post 97% of the tweets. So 18 million people post 97% of the content to shape the narrative in a nation of 372 million. 5 fricking percent.
This is just one small example but I think this shows how the fringe few are trying to make it look like the whole nation is thinks a certain way and I dont think that is the case. I think the ship can be righted.

Oh, I'm not without some hope for the future.
Just not for this country's future. I think America is thoroughly damned at this point. Child mutilations, kids performing drag for perverts, a fully degenerate national leadership and culture that promotes all this. A culture in which all that is good and decent is vilified, and all that vile and depraved is deified. Our goose id cooked.

I feel hopeful. I think the Dems overplayed their hand. Twenty years from now this hard push would have been more effective. There are too many people fully grounded in reality and mental health, even on the Left, who aren't down with the new struggle.

I do have hope.
Unfortunately it’s evidently a virulent pathological mutation in mankind’s original spiritual DNA which doesn’t discriminate between race, culture, age, gender, or sex.
My hope, for us all, is Jesus Christ. Only by him, through him, and in him is this deadly pathogen eradicated in us.
Ephesians 2:1-22.
quote:Adoration and worship of Self is idolatry, a lie from the father of lies, and deadly.
The lie that you deserve better and your self-actualization is the highest goal of life is as captivating as it is deadly.

I hope you're right but I watched where the MSM didn't even have to try in the summer of 2020 to incite so much bullshite with the riots, Covid etc. It was like shooting fish in a barrel for them even dating back to the dumbest shite possible like #MeeToo movements and a host of other shite. In some ways I've accepted the future restrictor plate/governor switch on society, and as well intentioned as Trump is, I'm not sure I want him back when the MSM would have open season again to play very dangerous games. I hate that I'm even admitting that and waving the white flag...maybe I'm just getting too old for this nonsense and you youngbucks can pull a Reagan esque rabbit out of your hat for us.

Pendulum always swings back.

This is a myth. There is no pendulum right now. It is broken. One side controls quite literally everything.

Not really, the left just staged an insurrection and nothing will be done about it.

For this world to continue progressing technologically, no. All of what we grew up with and saw invented and what will soon be invented will shortly all be destroyed.
As for as mankind. Without God intervention I have zero hope. Look what they did to this world in the last few years. Imagine what they can do in the next 10 when your voice will be silenced more and more.
Bots are taking over the internet. Perception of normal is already skewed as some people think this country is divided 50/50 already. Not true. Now imagine in a few years that perception will shift to normal people thinking they aren't the norm any longer as the elites continue warping perception and indoctrinating your children.
You grew up in a "normal" world. Your children will not even have the opportunity to develop and view of the world like most of us here did. Then the shift accelerates and and exponential rate.

Our country only exists to serve Ukraine. Lord Zelensky is our only hope.

I hate to break it to you, but history has only been breaking in one direction long term for about 300 years now.
