We Americans are currently in a civilizational state historians William Strauss and Neil Howe would call the "Third Turning": an unraveling. The so-called Left is making it happen, too, with conservatives enabling it by conserving yesterday's liberalism and being those nice guys who finish last.
In Marxist circles, this stage would be called "destabilization" the second of a four-part process to subvert a society and seize control. The first, third, and fourth stages are, respectively, "demoralization," "crisis," and "normalization."
The demoralization stage, which essentially is the undermining of a target nation's morality (the process of radically changing the population's "values"), was actually "over-fulfilled" in the mid-1980s already, as Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov put it at the time. This process continues and is manifested in the widespread antipathy for sexual propriety, faith, and all that is great and good and in the lust for perversion, socialism, feminism, multiculturalism, "transgenderism," and anti-Americanism in general. We see it in the tearing down of statues; removal of long present Christian symbols...

We did not choose this fight, but this fight chose us.
I really think this is where we’re headed.
And Trump is following Alinsky’s. LOL.
For later read.
And I’ve been saying for years that I feel like I’m living in “Dr. Zhivago” but without the love triangle.
We are fortunate to have live during peak civilization. The republic appears to be fraying around the edges. The fabric could unravel quickly. There are evil people inside the republic.
I am good. My powder is dry.
Been saying this for years
The 60s and70s were a sick time and those very same agitators and organizations are still at work pushing the same agenda in America.
I may be a 54 year old vet, but I stand ready to serve. My aim is still true, and I KNOW what is at stake.
They are attempting to destabilize the civil order, and take advantage of the confusion to install a totalitarian fascist government.
Trump knows that. He must be reelected in 2020!
Had Hillary won they would really be fast tracking it.....
The progress they have made in this regard, just in the past ten years, is astounding.
But, losers aren't usually around to "like" or "dislike" anything......
Well, duh, they are communists.
Historically the cure for this indulgence is privation, which isn't good news for the rest of us who are going to be taken along for the ride. Whether it's even stoppable at this point is very difficult to say.
There are some things that NEVER should have been tolerated.
But, our freedoms say that we must respect and tolerate everybody’s rights, including the right to express that which is completely opposite of our American values, including the values expressed in the constitution and our bill-of-rights.
We are seeing our values and rights violated and destroyed by people like the “Squad”, and ‘we’ are helping them along. Trump and many/most see the dangers ahead, but, we still cannot stop the attempted destruction of the country by ‘the four’ and the socialists within our government and among us.
Hopefully, the people will wake up and notice and do something in a peaceful manner, otherwise, a ‘hot’ civil war will eventually be the result.
So true. The beginnings of problems. They have more traction, allies, co-conspirators now. Many criminals never stop unless incarcerated or eliminated.
Post WWII was a heckuva time...peace, jobs (suburbs and malls being built), babies being born, a feeling of euphoria in the republic coming out of the war.
Historically, the world has been a slaughterhouse.
Just imagine liberals attacking the heartland. When this is about to start body bags are a good investment.
