One of the things about when the Roman Empire finally fell was that people couldn't believe it could happen and it took much longer then the actual fall for the citizenry to come to grasp mentally that it was over. I think that is happening now.

The day of reckoning is on the horizon and there are not enough young bucks with their heads screwed on straight to take over due to public education, abortion, relativism and liberalism.

The vast majority of public and private institutions have failed us.

Actually, the public and private institutions are performing precisely as desired. They have not failed. The various organizational entities are all doing their job of implementing the progressive agenda of making America into the United Kingdom.

Meanwhile, conservatives happily gather in the center of the arena to be eaten by the lions.

My thoughts align with yours on this.

It’s not rot. It’s not decay.

It’s corrosion!
The difference being, there is an active agent involved in the decomposition of the substance that was America.

Corrosion penetrates and dissolves.

You can see this in nearly EVERY aspect of society, culture, economics, and government.

It is simply impossible to believe that this is a random degeneration of quality of our essence. This is deliberate.
