And the churches are dying
Also the schools and universities
The concept of families
Morality - dying
Respect for US military - dying and I say that as a retiree

FReepers:

As silverleaf points out, the institutions are dying that historically served as intermediaries between citizen and state. Preserving and strengthening the role of these intermediaries is the essence of conservatism. But the tide is going out. The institutions that are not withered and vestigial have become corrupted.

At this point, it’s a republic if we can restore it. But that may take many generations.

Have a backup plan. Have a way to get out of the country fast if you need to. At least have a way to get out of the city if you live near one.

Establish networks online now, that can be activated if the net is shut down.

If Trump is elected, it will hold off the descent a bit longer. It will give us all more time to prepare. So we should support Trump unequivocally.
