“What will happen to Americans when the US Dollar is no longer the world currency?”
It’ll be an unimaginable situation for everyone, but the leftists/communists/fascists/socialists/Marxists/anarchists etc.
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” - John Adams.
At what point would you say the immoral/irreligious became a majority in this country? My understanding is that the Baby Boomers and younger became the majority of the U.S. population around 1993. We’ve been running on fumes since then.
Some time in the eighties.
The 1880s.
Social religion can only hold things together so long.
This is not news although nice to see another finally get there.
It may shock moderns, including Christians who think of Pilate and Nero and other psychotic rulers, to realize that the Roman Republic was a very civil place, with virtues akin to ours (absent, of course, Christ).
I tend to think that the people who direct the idiot mouth Dems — who set the agenda that screeching wokists and race baiters bleat out in such with duckspeaking MSM, know exactly this history and very much want this path, intending to live and rule and kill populists and be long gone before the inevitable counterstroke happens.
These are all old ****ers and even the second tier like Schumer and Pelosi and Brandon are withered husks, living on hate and borrowed time.
Given all the schitt that the XiJinBiden criminal regime has done, do you think much of the world trusts the US anymore?
“The giant party is about to end”
It’s the US Government DEFAULT that will be world shattering.
Nobody escapes that.

I noticed that the new ‘guns’ are capable of amazing things. When I was a kid you could purchase a rifle from the Sears Catalog and have it delivered to your door. Funny thing, back then none of the guns ever took themselves out of the closet, loaded themselves, transported themselves to a local grade school, and then killed multiple children. Must be the new AI guns that make that possible...... OR.... People have changed.
If their a real Smartypants they may even throw out a phrase in Latin. That really get the Chick going let me tell you!
“History repeats itself” PERIOD. Its really just that simple.
LOL!
Its the End of the World on this site 5 time a day. :)
The Crack known a FOX News, and Tucker Carlson are a hard habit to quit.
Again. No context of history for most folks here. History began in 1950 ya know. When everything was White, even the Baby Jesus.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831) famously said, “Nothing great in the world was accomplished without passion” and “We learn from history that we do not learn from history”. He was an important figure of German idealism and has become increasingly influential in the analytic tradition as well.
“History doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme.” - Mark Twain............
The worst school massacre in American history happened in 1927 in Michigan.
No guns were used.
Times change.
People don’t.

👍
Hegel is a favorite of mine.
The quote on passion is spot on. I must have missed that one.
“The worst school massacre in American history happened in 1927 in Michigan.”
Yes, nutcase who bombed the school. In the 1920’s, there was a single incident of someone breaking in and shooting two kids. Look what happened to him

People have changed. While there may have been crazy people, the sheer number of crescendo incidents suggests that crazy is rapidly multiplying.
