I’m with you on every point. But, there is a palpable Boomer Lethargy that sees us mostly chattering it up, but not wrapping it up. We will Do only as much as we’re face-to-face actually faced with, but we will likely not Start much, to Stop much, and probably not in time.
You nailed it. The Leader is The Key to the difference. That’s exactly what I think.

The 60s movement had no real leaders.
At first it was just a bunch of naive and idealistic musicians, many of them not even 20 years old.
This vacuum allowed the loud-mouthed Marxists to step in like the "Chicago seven" and claim to be the leaders.
In my view, the entry of the Marxists was the beginning of the end of what started as a movement honoring freedom, creativity and youth. (There was also the problem with drugs; but, in my opinion, this was not fatal until cocaine took center stage. For most people, pot and acid were self-limiting.)
But it's very different now. We have an unquestioned leader in Donald Trump, who is not a child, but a very serious adult.
We are sober and responsible and spiritual ... and yet we boomers are the same people who were idealistic and freedom-loving and wanted to change the world.
We are the same people, but we are no longer children ... except children of God.
Right now, with the aid of Q and Q+ we are filtering through the FAKE LEADERS ... building a foundation that can last even beyond the Trump Presidency.
It's different this time. This time we'll get it right.
