Interesting article. True. I’ve witnessed this scenario in my lifetime. I had a political minded Dad which caused me to be a conservative thinking teenager.
It’s called tyranny. I see no way back with the amount of control the tyrants now have and the brainwashing of our younger generation.
Empires rise and fall. They never remain.
I don’t like being a pessimist, but I see no way out anymore. Our last hope, elections....destroyed.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” Ronald Reagan
“...It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same...”
Now, there’s the rub. Since WWII Americans have become way too comfortable to be bothered with preserving their freedom. “MINE, NOW” has been the mantra for many decades. Greed and apathy have destroyed a once proud nation.
