It’s not wishful thinking. People respond to consequences.

You forget the spaghetti theory.

Everyone likes spaghetti. If you don't have it for a while, you miss it.

But, if you never had spaghetti, you will not miss it.

These youth will never miss what we have or what our parents had. They never knew how it could be and if anyone tries to tell them, they think it was horrible and abusive and taking advantage of people.

I think you underestimate the amount of brainwashing that has taken place.

Will some youth figure it out and rebel? Yes, of course. But they (and us) are a minority.

I don’t underestimate it.
As I said, if America is going communist, it is all over. If it is all over, America becomes the Second Beast of Revelations and is in service to the First Beast.

I am not underestimating anything at all.

Is this your theory (spaghetti) or one that was offered by another?
It is very good and quite incisive.
Plus, I love teaching by analogy.

I will use this, going forward but would like to give attribution.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

personally, I feel like trump’s MAGA & America First have been a 6-7 crash course in American History & Civics as it has not been taught in schools for years plus historical monuments have been destroyed.

it was good to see trump’s 4th of july celebration. his trips to mt rushmore, his rememberance of veterans who fought for our freedoms

it’s been an uphill battle
