Point you made is so true, my generation don’t want to read good books, analyses, probability of if and what, all they care is get with a girl or a man, nice TV show and watch sport. I like sport, but I know my limits, for them is just game.
Serious geo political issues are around us, have been for many centuries, but game is changed. With Thermo Nuclear, biological, chemical capabilities, we are in state of ... who pushes a switch first.
With agendas as important to push abhorrent behavior, with hate attacking those who believe in truth, with armies getting ready, all they want to do is have some fun.
While politicians and ambassadors are talking of peace, armies are preparing for war.
Merci.
C’est assez vrai, mon ami.
Politics are not just for the intellectual. Our Founders helped us to understand that freedom requires a majority beating back the tireless minority to prevent a usurpation of rights.
Sadly, since the 1940s, the minorities (not blacks explicitly) have worn down the American psyche and allowed those of us who simply want to live lives to acquiesce to their littlest of desires.
Sadly, those minor desires have turned into major moral and ethical conflicts that now threaten the very existence of the Republic.
It only takes that tireless minority to “set brush fires,” as Samuel Adams once said.
