You’re using faulty logic.
2021 may be a blip in history.
But we live in 2021, so it’s not a blip for us.
Further, specific events in history, can, and do, have an outsized impact on history.

So the destructive force behind LBJ and FDR before him is just a curiosity now ? You’d be a pure shitt bag to believe that

Have a backbone for starters and pay attention to local politics, it begins there

If you think that this is a pivotal moment, then by all means, do something. Vote. Run for office. Storm the capitol if you want. I'm certainly not stopping you.
My point in the OP is that the pendulum is always swinging back and forth. Whether we like it or not (and I don't), the pendulum is swinging to the left at this moment. I do believe it will swing back at some point, but I'm not inclined to engage in armed conflict to make it happen. Americans will decide the fate of America, for better or worse.

You say it is a prediction but then reference it as a certainty.

Oh really? If you could find one still alive, tell that to the survivors of the Warsaw (Poland) Ghetto Revolt in 1943. I'm sure those poor folks never thought their neighborhoods would be turned into killing fields.
Oh, and you do realize these democrats kill innocent babies.....right? But don't worry they'll get around to killing you later.
Good Day!

I agree with that except I don't take it that seriously. It doesn't make sense to work oneself up about all this stuff. And it also helps to know while some of us are not too fired up about all this there are 50% plus of Americans who are pleased. And there is another election in 2022 and then 2024 and so on and on. Joe gonna be 84 in 2024 and Nancy will be about 85.

Our election was stolen ! Sad moment in America.

frick man, one of the capitol city rioters had a “Camp Auschwitz” sweatshirt in and the Charlottesville protestors chanted “the Jews will not replace us”

When biden's 11,000,000 illegal aliens become eligible to vote Democrat, it will be one big tidal wave. One whose effects will last forever. There are already two "caravans" of immigrants working its way towards the U.S.border. Add all these numbers to the country's welfare & Social Security rolls, yea, it's a bit more serious than you think. Not for me,mabe, but for my grand kids for sure. Head in the sand, OP.

50 or 100 years from now, people will look back and note this current period (and Trump) as a historical curiosity.
Movements, left and right, populist and otherwise, come and go. Presidents come and go. Predictions of the destruction of civilization, or of democracy, or of the American way of life, come and go.
The tide of history is bigger than any politician or movement. The tide rolls in and out over the course of decades and centuries. Ultimately every successful civilization destroys itself, but something new will take its place.

I know I'm 4 pages in already, but WOW.
You should read about what happened in Europe between around 1900-1945.
See if that jumps off the page as a historical curiosity.

Riiiight, because the differences between living in the USA and China have nothing to do with Politian's.

Ah yes because Hitler was nothing more than a historical curiosity, you got it dumbass. What a ridiculous, idiotic take

Wrong.
You do realize history started before 245 years ago right? There was a history that included that fall of the most powerful nations before we ever existed. Nothing promises us continued prosperity just because that’s all we’ve ever known.
Also the tribulation and the Antichrist will be coming soon so I wouldn’t be concerned about 100 years in the future. Everything is now set for the new world order to take over. There are no major countries left with a leader that will resist.

I really hate to be the one to break it to you, I really do, but this wasn't a pendulum swing. This was an orchestrated removal of power from the hands of the American people. If you think they are just going to give that power back, I'd like to know how, and why. There were about 4 people in all of Washington with the nuts to say boo about this fraudulent election. If you really think the socialist democrats are going to tell themselves to let us have the next election, you're crazy.
Anyone with an above room temperature IQ should be able to see the plan by now. We have two choices, capitulate or fight. They think they want us to fight, that's what the last 5 years has been about. Now, they don't care either way, because they can just call out the military.

unfettered immigration
dominion voting forever
packed courts
new states
no filibuster
Either the democrats will destroy the country or they have been lying about what they will do.
No country lasts forever.
