    In a history perspective, how do we get out of this?

        Against who, though? Europe isn’t going to fight us. Russia is a joke. If China won that war (far from guaranteed), the world order that settled in wouldn’t be any better.

          IDK, maybe the penguins and seals of Antarctica might get mad at us for drilling for oil down there or something.

      Messaging to help people who will never grasp sarcasm, or two step instructions, stop falling for talking points you disagree with by feeding them talking points you agree with. There aren’t any billionaires paying to make large font easily digested liberal talking points and talking head blather that presents a liberal view, because they disagree, so the counter balance dosen’t exist.

      I’ve gone back and forth on this for a decade in my head, I’m more or less convinced a schism is coming in the form of asymmetrical civil conflict. I pray that it won’t ever come to that because it would be the most deadly conflict in the history of humanity once other powerful countries become involved and it escalates to WW3.

      The unfortunate truth one learns when studying history is that no one in a position of has ever learned a positive lesson from our past and take the action to avoid the mistakes the next time around

        The schism is already here. Just look at the reaction to the New York fraud trial verdict. The rest of us are in denial, pretending that it won’t escalate from what is just words now, but that’s the way it always starts, no?

          Oh I 100% agree that a worldview schism is already present, in many ways we’re already in the prelude. Robert Evans called this period the Crumbles in the original season of It Could Happen Here, which I think is the most reasonable prediction for how things will unfold
