This Fourth of July holiday we might pause for a moment from our festivities to ask how we collectively lost our minds over the last 15 months—and are we yet regaining any semblance of our sanity?
A pandemic caused by the leak of a Chinese-engineered virus and its coverup was cause enough for nationwide madness. But the spread of COVID–19 was followed by a nationalized and often politicized “flatten-the-curve” quarantine that soon ensured a stir-crazy nation. Tens of millions saw no people, and heard nothing human other than what was fed to them through television and computers. No wonder they grew paranoid, conspiratorial, and angry, and soon forgot the therapeutic nature of personal interaction and the shared humanity of being in the physical presence of others.

Everything happening today was set in motion when the ineligible Kenyan from Indonesia was sworn in in direct violation of the Constitution.
VDH once again hits the nail on the head. He’s a national treasure.
Well Said!
A Banana republic with No Bananas
Good and sad article, thanks for posting.
No kidding! There is a LOT written into that article.
It perfectly describes the way I feel about the last 18 months
Thanks for posting.
Yep!
Ouch. Great “State Of Diss-Union” piece.
The Genesis Of Our American Collective Meltdown = Obama, his revolution, communism.
“Everything happening today was set in motion when the ineligible Kenyan from Indonesia was sworn in in direct violation of the Constitution.”
Yes. But it took a long time and a a heck of a ground team to soften the environment first. Starting in the 1930’s. Good ole Frankfurt School, embedded in Columbia University.
Our best days are well behind us, but DAMN, did we have a great run...
True, but the corrupt propaganda media pushing the fake racism is pouring gas on the fire. I hold the media responsible for instigating the Dem Leftist messaging.
Nobody captures the big picture in such clear and concise language, as Victor Davis Hanson. He details and summarizes our nation’s crises all in one, powerful column. All this without detailing the greatest crime in US history - the theft of the 2020 election! I believe in the long run the patriots of this country will conquer the left and restore our country’s greatness. But how long and at what price?

Imagine what the next 18 months will be like. I’m afraid we’re in the early stages of a prolonged meltdown.

Just watch. The Left will find a way to Trump him. They will get one of their weaponized agencies to persecute and harass him. I bet they are pouring over his personal communications right now.
I kind of wonder if VDH really wrote all of that. His writing is usually more structured and concise. This article wanders around all over the map.
Agonizing to read. And spot on. But I’m glad my parents didn’t live to see this.
