Solzhenitsyn certainly understood the risks of civilizational collapse that were facing us in the 70's, and many have only grown worse over the years. Our leadership is largely devoid of courage when facing those who would destroy the Western way of life. This is how Donald Trump got elected, for the people of America who still share the republican values of our founders saw in him, unlike so many others, the courage to stand up to the lies and lullabies of the Left that have taken us so far down the road to ruin. And this is why he must be re-elected in November, for without his courageous leadership against the enemies of America, we are surely doomed.
Go back, all of you and Read The Whole Thing. Even then, Solzhenitsyn could see it coming. If we wish to keep the best aspects of our civilization, there must be a reckoning, a retribution, a retaliation so grim, so dire that it will resonate through the next millennium. The Gramscian, Machiavellian Left have removed any last iota of concern, care or compassion for their fate that I might have once had.
