You will be sold out for a sandwich…

Hell, for a "Cheez-It"

America is already falling apart anyway. America produces little of nothing, it's in an ocean of debt, it's alienated most of it's allies, people are not getting cared for, mass killings almost a weekly event now, America's money is becoming worthless, it is mired in a deep recession/depression with inflation topping things off, has poor healthcare, housing is too expensive, toxic politics abound and everything is political, having intermittent shortages of goods and services, sort of like the lights flickering out as the Titanic is sinking.

America does nothing to help itself, so how can that be treason? Let her sink!!!!

This is the classic example of the negativity seen on the thread that is totally out of proportion to the on the ground reality of the USA, no matter how much I know and am aware that it is in decline (and I am). America produces a ton of things, most importantly food, but the problem is that it stands out too much to boomers that we screwed over our working class so other average joes (asians) around the world could get a better life making our elite richer. It stands out to me too, and is a problem I've complained about, but as generational theory suggests and we know, the demographic boom and good times always have their end. "People are not getting cared for" and "Mass killings are a weekly event": hyperbole much? Everything you mention, again yes USA is declining, is media and observation bias. Life can't be all that bad when millions are taken care of by a "broken system" daily that feeds, clothes, and shelters so many people born into corruption that literally were supported by all the "broken" medical care you complain of. Ever been to Guatemala? Seriously, you guys act like the USA is a bad third world country, when it is still the world's power. I've been to these other countries, I know how bad they are, and the USA ain't anywhere near.

Now, we should strive to be much better but we had a huge demographic boom in a materialist country that has been propagandized to hate Christianity. And you wonder why it's a failed state. LOL

More on "Aliens" next.

I have been left brain damaged, which has affected my vision.

Oh, I thought you were making a reference to that Butler guy. Haha, I hope you continue in your journey and keep the faith. Best to you, Guest.

John, my best wishes to you for your health as well. Signing out AMA is your personal choice, just note that the verbiage is there and scary because of medicolegal reasons, not many other ones.

This. I think much of this doom and gloom is posted by people who have never been anywhere else. Go to some third world country and see how the average person lives. By comparison the US is doing fantastic! It's the same with the people saying that the US is a racist society; they must not have ever been to any other country. Try just about any Asian nation because, by comparison, the US is about as non-racist as you can find.

Yes, the US has problems, but it's always had problems and there's never been a golden age, just nostalgia.

** 04-Jun-2021 World View: Kidney function

Well, I've just returned from the hospital for the second time in
three days for two different reasons. They told me that my kidney
function was falling, and that they wanted me to remain in the
hospital for the weekend "under observation," but I told them that I
wanted to go home, but I promised that if I have fever or chills or
anything, then I would call an ambulance and go right back. They made
a big deal about this:

> "You are leaving against medical advice. By leaving
> before completing further testing and treatment there is risk your
> condition could become worse. This worsening condition could lead
> to increased pain, disability or even death. You were made aware
> of these risks before discharge and indicated that you understood
> these risks."

So they let me go. Whew! Will I survive the weekend? Your guess is
as good as mine.

I hope you get better soon and keep posting good stuff to read for many more years.

Every intelligent species will invent automation technology and
artificial intelligence technology that eventually grows into a
Singularity for that species. That is, the species will create a new
AI species that will replace it.

So ultimately Artificial Intelligence will destroy us?

And no. I don't think the Russians or Chinese have the ability to create UFOs.

No, the demonic powers of the world will try to make transhumans and destroy all traces of humanity that we have. Phase 1 is over, the attempt at confusing people with sex and identity, so that they will self mutilate among other things. The goal of the demonic is to destroy human beings, God's special creation, made in his image. Notice that every globalist movement in the world has a primary objective of depopulation. Do you think this is a coincidence?

The objective of the world is power and chaos, which as idols, lead to destruction. Of course, where you see destruction and chaos, you see the ruler of this world. The good thing is that he is defeated. He loses. Think of the greatest gift God could give to you, the knowledge that the greatest enemies have been defeated. Yet we still bask in rebellion and uncertainty because of our lack of faithfulness.

Aliens are a lie to diminish special creation known as man, and to manipulate humans further. I have no problem if a ET existed, but the problem is that there is absolutely no evidence of this, so even as a scientist, if you believe they do, you are a religious believer. Ironic how things work out in the world when you see it clearly.

Amen, as a middle aged man who has grown up when America was normal, it is bizarre that we see this clearly and the others are duped or ignorant.

John, a couple of Thoreau quotes for you. Get well!

“One generation abandons the enterprises of another like stranded vessels.” (Sounds familiar)

“There is an incessant influx of novelty in the world, and yet we tolerate incredible dullness.”

** 07-Jun-2021 World View: Greece and Turkey

Tensions between Greece and Turkey have always been high, ever since
Helen's face launched a thousand ships. Greece and Turkey tensions
were also the reason that Truman announced the Truman Doctrine, making
America the Policeman of the World.

Most recently, Greece and Turkey have been at loggerheads over
drilling for oil in the waters around Cyprus. And let's not forget
that Turkey sent millions of refugees from Syria into Europe through
Greece.

Nonetheless, both countries are members of Nato, and a military action
by one Nato country against another would bring in other Nato
countries, so it's unlikely that anything will happen at the present
time.

Greece's last generational crisis war was World War II.

Turkey's last generational crisis war was World War I, and the
destruction of the Ottoman Empire. Turkey is one of a handful of
countries on the WW I timeline (Mexico, Turkey, Morocco, Saudi Arabia
and Russia) that are in a Fifth Turning, since the Fourth Turning has
passed without a new crisis war.

** 07-Jun-2021 World View: The Future

I want to thank all the people who posted kind words and good wishes.
It means a lot to me. Despite ignoring the "medicolegal" warnings on
Friday, I seem to have survived the weekend. Unfortunately, at my
advanced Methusalean age, I seem to have a brand new problem du
jour every day, and sooner or later they will all catch up to me.
It all seems so pointless.

Sunday was 77th anniversary of D-Day on June 6, 1944, when more than
156,000 allied troops landed by sea and air on the beaches of Normandy
in France, facing massive fire from Nazi snipers. About 4,300 people
were killed, wounded or missing in action that one day. There were
22,442 soldiers under British command who died on D-day and the
subsequent Battle of Normandy in the next two months.

I watched the services in Ver-sur-Mer in France on Sunday at a
beautiful new British Normandy memorial to those 22,442 soldiers,
whose names are engraved in stone. There was a separate memorial to
the French soldiers who died. The ceremonies were attended by a small
number of veterans who had fought at Normandy, and were still alive.

The speeches, led by Prince Charles, were sad and extremely touching,
and described how young boys had raced to sign up, but then got shot
dead by snipers in Normandy. The speeches talked about their bravery,
their willingness to fight for freedom, and how their heroism saved
their country and the world.

These commemorations always make me very emotional and sad, not just
because of the loss in the past, but also because I know something
that most of them don't know -- that they're talking about the future,
probably the near future. There will be new D-Days, not necessarily
in Europe, but possibly in Taiwan, Japan, California, Israel, and
elsewhere. The D-Day commemorations are presented as being about the
distant past, but they're just as much about the near future.

There was one journalist on tv who was rattling on and on about the
commemoration, and the importance of D-Day, when he said the
following: "If it hadn't been for D-Day, then today all of Europe
would be Communist."

Well, that's a strange statement. Did he mean that all of Europe
would be Fascist, or did he mean that without D-Day, Stalin would
have moved in and conquered all of Europe?

Either way, it's not true. We can already see this from the history
of Eastern Europe. At the end of WW II, the countries in Eastern
Europe were all Communist, behind the "Iron Curtain." But within 2-3
generations, everything was almost back the way it had been before the
war, except for a small border change or two. In particular, Germany
was reunified in 1991.

So we can commemorate D-Day, and talk about the heroes -- and they
were heroes -- who saved the world in World War II, but in the end,
all that fighting and slaughter accomplished nothing except to kill
off enough people so that the survivors would have enough food.
That's important, but otherwise it all seems so pointless.

Today, this is the darkest time in America in my memory.

We have a president, Joe Biden, who lived at a time when Democrats in
the KKK were raping pretty young black girls, and were torturing and
lynching black boys. That's what Democrats did at that time. Biden's
idolized mentor, Robert Byrd, was a KKK leader with the title Exalted
Cyclops. Biden and Byrd probably raped a few girls, or at least they
had friends who did. Because of Byrd's position of authority, he may
even have organized or approved of some gangbangs. And Byrd and Biden
must also have approved of lynchings of black boys.

These rapes and lynchings are hard to believe in America, but the
facts are not in doubt. The Democrats, especially in the south, were
White Supremacists who joined the KKK so that they could rape black
girls and lynch black boys. The Democrats did that because they were
completely pissed off and infuriated that they had lost the Civil War,
and that Abraham Lincoln and the Republicans had freed the slaves.
The desire for revenge runs deep. After the Civil War, the Democrats
created the KKK and the Jim Crow laws to make sure that blacks would
never be successful, and would live in poverty in ghettos.

This was just a few decades after the 1921 Tulsa Massacre. On June 1,
1921, hundreds of White Supremacist Democrats in the KKK looted and
burned and killed the black Greenwood section of Tulsa. The violence
and destruction continued for 18 hours before it ceased. In the wake
of the violence, 35 city blocks lay in charred ruins. There were 300
deaths, 800 injuries, and some 6,000 displaced from their homes, and
now homeless. These kinds of ethnic attacks are common in other
countries, but it's almost impossible to believe that they actually
could occur in America. And yet, they did.

So last week there was a commemoration of the Tulsa Massacre and Joe
Biden, who himself as a boy had supported the KKK and Robert Byrd and
massacres of blacks, said the the following at the commemoration of
the Tulsa Massacre:

> "As I said in my address to the joint session of
> Congress: According to the intelligence community, terrorism from
> white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today.
> Not ISIS, not al Qaeda — white supremacists. (Applause.) That’s
> not me; that’s the intelligence community under both Trump and
> under my administration."

Democrats today frequently describe all Trump supporters as terrorists
and white supremacists, so the purpose of Biden's statement is to
incite violence against Trump supporters. Many Democrats have already
done that, with the worst offender Maxine Waters, who was possibly
raped by a White Democrat when she was a girl, and certainly knew
other black girls and women who had been raped by White Democrats.
Biden is also inciding antifa-blm fascists to attack Trump supporters.

So we have Joe Biden, himself a White Supremacist as a boy, now
expiating his guilt by inciting violence against Trump supporters.

Nobody, not even most Democrats, could possibly believe the bilge in
Biden's statement, but it does appeal to his base, people with
Gruber-like stupidity like AOC and her millions of followers, who are
apparently even stupider than she is. Along with antifa-blm fascists,
anti-Semitic AOC and her followers are exactly the people that Biden
was speaking to when he incited violence against Trump supporters.

This comes after Democrats have set up a Stalinist censorship regime
specifically targeting Trump supporters. This is the worst thing I
have seen in America in my lifetime.

So to expiate his guilt at being a White Supremacist most of his life,
Joe Biden has turned into the most viciously hate-filled bigoted
president in the history of the United States, and is encouraging his
most bigoted, hate-filled followers to be the same. He's still pissed
off that the Democrats lost the Civil War and the Republicans freed
the slaves, and apparently has no fear of inciting a new civil war.

How will all this end? There have been plenty of postings in this
thread about how America is "finished."

I've answered this question many times. The way it will end is with a
"regeneracy event." This is a concept in generational theory,
referring to an event that regenerates civic unity for the first time
since the end of the previous crisis war. It's an event that presents
a strong existential threat to the nation or society, and forces all
sides to put aside their political differences and unite behind the
leadership for the common survival.

In 1941, it was the Pearl Harbor attack and the Bataan Death March.
FDR had been an extremely divisive president, but those regeneracy
events unified the country behind him.

Today, it might be a missile attack on an American city, or it might
be a major military disaster overseas. Today, it's most likely going
to be whatever event triggers war with China. But America is not yet
"finished."
