Ultimately every successful civilization destroys itself, but something new will take its place. You people take your politics, and yourselves, way too seriously.

We recognize that we are living in the era that may lead to the destruction of a successful civilization, and saw in 2016 that the inevitable could be slowed down, so we take it seriously. In the short term anyone that doesn’t take politics and their effect on the economy seriously must not have any money, or a job they care about.

I wonder if the people in the USSR, Cuba and Venezuela thought the same thing?

Can you tell me at any point in American history where an entire political party, the media and the president have all called for censorship and “re-programming” 76+ million people? Couple that with Big Tech doing these things with impunity as well.

I’ll wait.

I don’t think you’re aware of what the Dems want to accomplish these next 4-8 years...if they’re successful, it would prevent republicans from winning office for the foreseeable future. It’s already difficult, but they’re seeking to make it impossible.

Problem is, I only have one life. I missed the big wars. draft age during Vietnam, but had already joined the Navy, Submarine service. So I was blessed to miss all that.
Those poor Russians that were young, when the Commies took over the revolution, were not so fortunate.
I fear that another Reagan man not come along in my grandchildren's lifetime.

But I agree with you about the ebb and flow of civilization. A world wide Soviet Union or Venezuela would, IMO, cause a collapse of the world economy.

We are headed for a world collapse that is done on purpose. Then the reset will happen. Misery is right around the corner.

It’s unprecedented and the only historical parallels are dire.

It used to be that politics didn’t effect normal life. It was a separate sphere.

Politics now limits what I can say, it changes how I’m treated at work for the worse, and it makes finding a new job more difficult.

On the home front, I’ve watched progressives destroy my culture in my home state.

think you're the one who needs a history lesson. Our economy is twice the size it was at the beginning of the Obama administration. The average American today has more freedom, lower taxes, better education, better health care, access to more luxuries, and an overall better quality of life than the wealthiest man in the world 100 years ago.

My kids will have opportunities I never dreamed of. America will not just be ok. America is gonna kick arse


This exact statement was spoken my Romans, and Frenchmen, and English, etc. The hubris of the moment is not the tale history has told us.

Big eye roll.
It’s not as similar to what’s been said about Jews on this fricking board.
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”

It’s crazy the company trumpers keep and then wanna turn around and be victims.




frick you, you worthless son of a bitch

Some people are so short sided and think only in real time. Do you think Hitler just came into power overnight?


It might be good for some to study history. Hitlers path was set in the years following WW1.

Americas path started in the 70’s but was ramped up by the Chinese over the last 20 years. I keep tell if y’all to read The 100 yr Marathon and you’ll see plainly what’s going on in America.

Xi has openly said this will be Chinas century and as we grow closer to 2049 it will only get worse. They want to be the leader or the world by the 100 yr Anniversary of the PRC. Keep up with the belt snd road stuff and see how they are taking over shipping ports around the world thanks to their predatory loans.

Get ready my friend as the next 30 yrs will be interesting snd I doubt you’ll have the same tune you do today.

there are 50% plus of Americans who are pleased. And there is another election in 2022 and then 2024 and so on and on[/quote]

And here above is where you outed yourself. You, yourself, don't know who/what you are. Trying to appear as though you straddle the middle. You're guilt as to the current situation, which you either overtly or outright supported/voted, penned the OP. You'll bitch and scream, trying to confuse the few who don't see, but your guilt and failed discernment ain't gonna leave. It's going to get worse, as you see that this election, and the outright fraud and subsequent consequences HAS & WILL change this country drastically, including the entire world. For there very likely may be no more real "elections" like we thought. There is no level playing field. Black is White & Truth is gone.

While you are studying the waves.....know that just one of the many very real, fundamental effects of your complacency and not fighting the crooks is that there are no more College Football National Titles. No one watched the last one. LSU won the Last!

I was a college football maniac.

I honestly don't know who won.

Except the last legitimate one, whereby Trump was blown out of the dome by a 5 minute Tiger decibel roar!

Ask the Germans how they felt after being ruled by
H i t l e r after a few years.
Ask Venezuela how they feel after being ruled by Chavez.
Ask Rushia how they felt after being ruled by Stalin after a few years.
Ask Cuba how they felt after being ruled by Castro after a few years.
What do all of these countries have in common with the Hiden admin.
They control the media, elections, then arrest people for merely disagreeing, then it gets worse.
No one who lived under these communist regimes cared about what people will think 50 years from now. They lived a nightmare during these communist regimes. Hiden plans to implement communists policies.
Dem politicians will have to defect to prevent this from happening.
