Well. That came across as a fairly insulting and condescending way to put it, but I also understand you don't know me, but I will accept your "suggestion" at face value as I assume you meant to convey it, and not that you think I am ignorant of it.
It is my observation that the only thing as bad or even worse than discounting the examples of history as is standard operating procedure of the Left, is blindly accepting that those examples cannot be avoided, as far too many people do on both the Left and the Right.
It was not meant to be insulting. If history is our guide, the United States will end. There is nothing to have faith in and to use your words, the country “will give up” on you. It is inevitable. No country or society in human history has lasted indefinitely.
The questions to be answered are when will it end, what form will replace it, and are the people affected by the demise of the US ready for that change.
These questions are why I posted my original note to buy weapons and ammo...in other words, prepare.
