You are correct, but “we” didn’t create this mess, the left did. Same as in Germany. Anything “we” or a German could do to reverse things at this late hour will see them prosecuted or educated by their government. That is the real hard truth.
Be prepared for the lefties to strongly resist attempts to turn our culture around. There will be a lot more than name calling until we can get a preference cascade. Look at Bernie Sanders, putative candidate for president, calling for the resignation of a Republican governor of Michigan because of water contamination. As if the governor was responsible. What about the mayor of Flint, or the officials in public works? Naw, lefties won’t own up to their actions or their consequences until WE MAKE THEM ACCOUNTABLE. I mean jail time. Fines. Rope, tree, some assembly required, etc.
