What your currently seeing in America is what happens when the most dimmest, dullest, and scared humans pick a leader. This will turn out to be a cautionary tale for generations to come, or until humans are extinct.. Whichever happens first. I give us until 2100.
Sit back and enjoy the shit show folks.
I would weep for the future, but my wife and I happily have no children. Anyone with children or grandchildren need to rethink what kind of future world they want for their progeny. Unlike the 19th Century when nationalism and tribalism were viable options, we live in a world of instantaneous communication where the extinction of the species is a button press, a misunderstand, or misinterpretation away. The environment that supports all the worlds living organisms is at the mercy of our now 7.5 Trillion individuals. We are literally a virus gone unchecked upon mother earth.
If you haven't read Arthur C Clarks Childhood's End, I recommend it. From my perspective, intervention from overlords is the only thing that will save humanity.. At least for a little while.
