Fuck. I just posted a “not with a bang but a whimper” comment. That shit’s chilling.

They stole the election—no bangs; just whimpers.

the world doesn't really end, it just changes into something the older generations no longer recognize as stable.

the newer generations are able to adapt to the new world much easier and faster while the older generations suffer the loss of the old world and in desperation seek its revival.

this is why maintaining cultural stability is so important and why education and mentorship is so very crucial in maintaining a world that every generation is happy to conserve.

The enlightenment produced one of the most adaptable systems of government yet to ensure that civilization would continue to prosper. The United States is a nation of problem solvers and innovators and that is only possible because the Constitution helped to create an environment where free thinking humans can obtain and share knowledge and work towards goals bigger than themselves.

It's unfortunate that these core ideas have been diluted, forgotten and neglected over time. But the spirit of America is still alive and well in many, it may be unspoken and it may be neglected in popular media but it's an idea that goes beyond any written word or pretty symbol because it's kept alive by every individual's direct connection to God and that's something not any mortal government, corporation, army, or faction can ever hope to extinguish.

The real clowns are the ones that see the fire but dismiss it as a conspiracy theory.
