Excellent find.
As a white male, I know I am in trouble.
Yes, thanks for the link. That is a good overall framework to describe how important a man can be, regardless of his flaws.
Yes. I posted this a couple of weeks ago on the Societal Collapse thread - "Like him or hate him, he forced those on the left to reveal their true selves. He also exposed the two-tiered level of justice in this country. Law no longer matters, only the people enforcing it."
Unfortunately, I think the world as a whole is beyond redemption, and that Trump was a respite, not a savior. The whole global system will collapse under the weight of its own corruption and immorality. The few good men we have left are not enough to stem that tide. We have to hit bottom before things can truly be made better, and we've a ways to go for that to happen.
I said it once a while back - preparing for what's coming is more than growing your own food, moving away from cities, etc. It is also arming your children and grandchildren with the spiritual and intellectual tools they'll need to rebuild, because the burden will fall on them, not us. Homeschooling with a classical liberal arts curriculum is probably the only way that will happen, as even the best schools these days have forgotten the real purpose of education.
