Pearls of expression.

If you can’t accept where we’ve been, and that Trump’s election is a symptom of decades of rot as opposed to year zero of a dangerous new world, you’ll never come to any useful conclusions. As such, the most meaningful fracture in American society today is between those who’ve accepted that we’ve been lied to for a very long time, and those who think everything was perfectly fine before Trump. There’s no real room for a productive discussion between such groups because one of them just wants to get rid of orange man, while the other is focused on what’s to come. One side actually believes a liberal world order existed in the recent past, while the other fundamentally recognizes this was mostly propaganda based on myth.^[1]

An aspect of this divide might be the belief of the most powerful, even now, that the Federal Reserve plays a necessary role in safeguarding the monetary health of the nation as opposed to those who think that the dollar's loss of 97% of its purchasing power since 1913 is an unmitigated disaster. Two percent annual inflation as a sensible goal! My foot.

The first group are unfazed by disaster, just as globalism and multiculturalism fanatics are unfazed by the total disaster of the fanatic mixing races, cultures and religions throughout the Western world.
