Every now and then you just need to pause and reflect on the past 40 years in America.

Imagine the year is 1980 and standing on a debate stage during a Democrat primary for the presidency of the United States a candidate tells the illegal immigrants around the world to surge our southern border. That candidate would have been booed off the stage and their political career would be over.

Imagine on that same stage the moderator asks the Democrat candidates for the presidency to raise their hand if they would provide medical care and education for every illegal immigrant in the United States…..and they all raise their hand…..in 1980 such an occurrence would have been unthinkable and most certainly out of the realm of possibility.

In just 40 years we went from the aforementioned, the most unlikely scenario to ever happen on a debate stage, to a stage full of American Marxist in 2020 that pledged to do exactly what was absurd just 40 years ago, hell maybe even absurd 12 years ago.

I have to say I’m done blaming academia for indoctrinating generations of Americans into the socialist/Marxist ideology, I’m done blaming Hollywood/pop culture for desensitizing Americans to abhorrent behavior. My conclusion is the vast majority of Americans are simply stupid, like there’s really not much going on between their ears other than superficial BS.

Give most Americans some decent food, reasonable shelter, a few niceties, some sedation programming on television/streaming device and they’re good to go. The sedation programming has enough leftist/progressive content to keep the people moving steadily to the left and unwittingly voting for America’s destruction.

There’s no “systemic racism”. However, there is Systemic Marxism and Structural Stupidity.

Imagine what the USA will be like in EIGHTY years from now. It may be more Communist and Radical Left than even China is TODAY!

Imagine being eliminated from a presidential campaign less than 40 years ago over an alleged affair and now seeing what goes on...

Hell, they probably would have booed off the stage for saying that in 2004 to be honest.

What's ironic is all the people pushing this nonsense will be the first to perish when society collapses.

Based on historical photographs, things started to get messed up around 1965.

What people from 1980 would find most shocking is that if a man wears a dress, you have to refer to him as a woman or you’re a bigot.

I’ll play along.
Imagine, on that same stage, a Republican President stating:
1. We would preemptively invade a nation who poses no true threat to us
2. We would pass anything akin to the Patriot Act
3. We would bail out banks and Wall St, to the tune of hundreds of billions

When it comes to the govt, it doesn’t matter if it’s the right or left boot on your neck.
If you can’t identify that both “sides” are part of the problem, then you are the problem.

My personal opinion is that this whole thing will collapse and come back in less than eighty years. The question is in what form does it come back.

This “USA Country” will implode from its selfish politicians and enabling public from the massive debt created by a spoiled population unwilling to sacrifice now for future strength. History repeats itself. The writing is on the wall.
