America 'unrecognizable' and on the brink of collapse, experts warn: 'Turning on our own legacy'.
Fox News ^ | 2.7.2023 | Taylor Penley

Is America dying before our eyes? All societies eventually collapse – from the classical civilizations of Ancient Rome and Greece to the ever-alarming decline of modern America, could the past be hinting at what's in store? With skyrocketing inflation, political division, social unrest and a relentless effort to wipe away the fundamental principles of the nation, historians and scholars in Fox Nation's "American Requiem" series offer an elegy for what the country used to be and warn of what it has become.

I am not shocked. There is a lot of hate that is being taught in schools. Glorified and enforced at every level of the new generation of children.
Weather its rage against white people, society, social norms and authority.
The levels of perverse ideals being forced on young impressionable children if off the charts.
It’s like a super monster that is being cultivated by the press and the media that will soon grow to large and uncontrollable and will destroy the host that manifested this parasite.

There was a lot of contribution before and a lot since, but American exceptionalism was nominally abandoned 11/04/2008.

Sorry, our hope is lead.....encased in solid copper.

Barring that, I pray for a Balkanized America.

“It is 6.5% now - while during Carter’s time it nearly hit 15%”

If they hadn’t changed the methodology for calculating inflation, it would be north of 10% now. Just wait until WWIII is in full swing.

There is another article/thread on FR this am from the American Thinker regarding the fall of Denver from one of the best cities in the US to Democrat hell hole. This is a a microcosm of the US in general.

Unrestricted Immigration is a double edged sword. It brings in people who actually want to work to attain the American dream. it also brings in criminals, drug addicts and people who maintain the illegal drug and child trafficking.

Legalizing drugs was supposed to reduce crime. It did reduce the price of marijuana to the point it is not profitable to grow it. However, making drugs more readily available contributes to the decay of society and homelessness.

Mail in voting locks in a Democrat majority in every state it has been implemented. It is imperative to keep this form of voting being brought to more states. It is way to easy to cheat. Once it is in place. That state is lost.

"The gas prices, the housing crisis, the crisis with education, with healthcare… [it's] one crisis after another," retired Vanderbilt and Princeton professor Dr. Carol Swain said.

And it is all deliberate.

“They” say it is 6.5%.

Gasoline is now well over $3.00; up from $2.00. That is not 6.5 percent; that is 50%.

The inflation figures reported have been deliberately manipulated to protect politicians that have voted to impose the inflation tax.

The United States Constitution was killed by the disaster at Appomattox.

America is not dying, it’s being murdered by its elite.

It started back in the 50s, after McCarthy outed the commies/socialists; they resurfaced in Academia.

I was a few years ahead of those leftist teachers in grade school, Jr HS, HS and University.

They’ve infested Academia, local/state/federal Gov’ts, all Unions, Law Enforcement, the Courts, Legislatures, Religion, Military, Business, etc etc etc etc etc. They’re everywhere, because WE LET THEM TAKE IT ALL OVER.

Getting is back is going to be beyond difficult. Way beyond, at this point in time.

I know this “big push for the destruction of our Republic” began over a decade ago with the installation of the 3M president (Mulatto Marxist Muslim), but I never thought a retarded, America-/American-hating, decrepit old man would be installed to complete the task Ba-lack Insane Yo-mama started (and likely still directs).

Everyone needs a hero and needs hope. Trump is mine. I come to conservative sites ONLY for Trump. When he’s gone, I’ll leave the Republican party that left me long ago.

Beginnings? No, that was in the 1960’s…. We’re in the very late stage.

while a single strong leader is good... it takes many more to bring the nation back

the nonstop barrage of anti-American bs in the media constantly erodes any foundation attempting to take hold.

turn off tvs. not even sports (commercials and commentary is where progressives sneak in).

and confront those on the left as anti-American
