Heralding the collapse of Western Civilization along with the US.
Throw in the collapse of Christianity, as well, especially when you got drag queens in churches....
‘Drag Queens Can Now Be Seen In CHURCH’

It’s over. Accept it and prepare oneself via life skills (gardening, hunting, skinning, etc., etc.) and spiritually.
Obsessing about social issues is a harmful distraction for those who should concern themselves with the business of being competent warriors. There is nothing so serious on this earth than the ability to prevail in armed conflict. Without that, nothing else matters.
Wokeness in combat is Deadness.
We’re on our own folks. We’re going to have to rely on organizing militias. The military will be flush with weirdos and anti American jerks that have only one thing on their minds...put us down.
The reason we think that Western Civilization has collapsed is because representatives of Woke Culture are telling us it has. They are telling us that our ways are being replaced by a new culture of LGBTQ, gender fluidity, personal pronoun-obsession, reality-redefinition at will, and grooming of children into various perversions.
It's one thing for a reliable doctor to diagnose your illness, but it's another thing entirely to be told by your crazy aunt that your perception of reality of inaccurate.
I retired from the military in 2013 after 27 years. I saw the “woke” garbage creeping in and questioned it as often. I was eventually told that perhaps it was time I retired.
My daughter is currently serving (8 years so far) and I hear her complaining about it a lot. I’m not even sure what to tell her anymore. Everything is going to $h1t.
I’m sure things will never by the same. But the pendulum swings & people are only going to put up with obvious nonsense for only so long.
“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”
I believe this is true.
And I believe we are well into this last phase.
An excellent article about the destruction of the military by the left.
I will take issue with the time the author lists for the 2-mile run minimum. I think he meant ‘maximum time’ for the run being made longer. 60 points is the passing score for the event. See the chart here:
I remember that the maximum time for the 2-mile run for me, age 45, on my last Army PT Test was 19 min, 45 sec. I did it in about 15 min. The chart shows the current minimum time is 17:00 minutes for a 41 year old male and the max time is 22 min, 42 sec.
And if you were to decide to make the military your career, there is no escaping whatever social indoctrination is in place. You cannot quit and go to a less woke company and stay within your career field because there is only one military. So either you accept it, and agree to instruct all your subordinates in it, or you end your career.
In light of that, the wiser move seems not to join the military in the first place unless and until they get rid of all that crap.
Honestly, our best hope to fight wokism may come from the Supreme Court next term. There is a very real chance that the supreme Court shoots down the concept of diversity as justification for any form of affirmative action, and returns us to a policy of color-blindness. That decision would have a massive ripple effect throughout all levels of government.
In combat the US Trooper will address the enemy with wokeness just before being shot.
Yes. The destruction began with Obama and it’s from within.
I’ve heard that along with historical examples and I buy it. I agree with your assessment as well. But.. are the current hard times once again going to create strong men? Will the cycle continue or has the loop ended?
Can’t tell the future but it doesn’t look like the past. Those self correcting dynamics may be lost for a long time.
I am most certainly concerned about the length or duration of the various phases of the cycle.
They don’t generally go in years. They go in decades. Or centuries.
Actually, I am surprised that Trump and DeSantis act like there is still a viable election process in this country. I had concluded from Joe's election that there would never be another "honest" presidential election. In fact, I figured that, by their choice of Joe and Kamala, the Dems were making that abundantly clear.
Yet, Trump and DeSantis act as if all hope is not lost...yet.
What the Democrats seem to have overlooked is that the presidential election is what precludes the need for revolutions in this country. As folks use to say, we have a revolution every 4 years...and it's legal.
If elections are really taken away, we have to consider what other options we have...legally and otherwise (and, of course, there are no other legal options).
My brother ended up being an Drill Instructor 74-87 roughly, and retiring in’92. He said each class was weaker, until he was finished with them. Then they were the finest class he had ever seen
People from time immemorial have said the newer guys are not as good as the olden days. They mostly were just talking...... until the brass decided to “don’t ask don’t tell”, and place females on carriers, submarines, and in front line units. That was just a blip ago historically.
In the 1990’s I had friends and relatives on carriers. They told me about a lot of stories.
Now with trannies, a lot of females, and the queers, I can only imagine.
There is likely 50-100 years before this phase is over. Just a little news to cheer you up.
LOL, I feel much better. That means I’ll be dead before we are in the middle of the misery!
