'Violent, Explosive’ Fourth Turning Is Here: Civil War Or Global Conflict Unfolding | Neil Howe

[@paulrawlins5868]

I was born in '75, grew up in the 80s with Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Transformers, Lego and BMX. Then entered adulthood in the 90s with the end of the Cold War. If anyone can find me a better period to grow up in I'd be curious, maybe it's nostalgia but life felt so much better then.

It’s called dialectical materialism it’s what constitutes the catalyst for a revolution , dialectical materialism and revolution were both words coined by Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels .

The root cause is a debt based monetary system that requires long term increase of the money supply to provide GDP growth.

The fact of the matter is the people are at fault for the policies their leaders pursue. "A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage."

I think it is remarkably naive and uninformed to say that the divisions in the USA fall along the lines of the split between the two main political parties. We are in a new paradigm right now. The division really exists between the establishment forces and a new emerging consensus party now represented by the unity between Trump, RFK, Jr., and potentially Elon Musk, among others. This is a new development and a new political realignment with corporate and institutional powers on one side and new populist-inspired resistance on the other. What is emerging as the impetus for this realignment is the growing realization that our institutions are not only not fit for purpose, but that they have been largely captured by corporate interests and are acting in opposition to the welfare of the general population.

While I can see your point, there is a disconnect between not just political parties, but also class and educational statuses.

also interesting footnote in history forgotten since the cold war, but one of the reasons why England did not actively support the South was the Russian support for the North.

It was the Russian repsonse to the British "great game": Russia supported the Union, because it believed that the united U.S. served as a counterbalance to its geopolitical rival, Britain.

First thing we need a fair election, I.D. and paper ballots.

[@ProfessorNiiji]

I propose an open social ballot system. The voter doesn't hide who they vote for. If you have to hide your vote, you shouldn't be allowed to vote. A large screen will show who you voted for. This stops the coonery and missing ballots, scamming, and voter fraud. Illegals will not vote because the public can see who's really voting .

Anyone born after 1960 might as well be Xers, they have very little in common with those born in the late 1940s and the fifties.

[@jeremywvarietyofviewpoints3104]

It has been defined differently at different times. The modern definition of Generation X is usually given as being born between 1965 and 1980. Strauss and Howe defined it as being born between 1961 and 1981. In their scheme a generation runs for about 20 years.

[@forevermorbid8949]

I don't understand the over use of the these classifications. Is saying "I was born in the 60's" not enough context? I mean the naming system isn't even consistent. If you have any knowledge of the world you'll know what that may imply, and it's not like "X" is any clarification. Don't understand this at all.

Oligarchy suppresses small business and creative enterprise. Oligarchy supports mass migration and depressed wages. Oligarchy undermines decent cultural values. That is why ordinary people with a conscience are justifiably upset. If the oligarchs had a sense of “noblesse oblige” it might alleviate matters somewhat, but their greed now overwhelms all decent values. Of course, their incompetence is becoming ever more evident with regard to basic economics and sensible foreign policy. They are living out a death wish that, oddly, they themselves do not seem to be conscious of or concerned about.

Why do so many people talk about the millennials and boomers and skip right over generation x

[@ljragsandfeathers]

Because the boomers had us first, before they had a chance to clean up their act and wash their hair and get clean from drugs. The millennials are the little brothers and sisters from your dad’s ’new family’ who got all the cash and attention as the parents aged. Not my story, but I know enough people for whom this is true that makes me think it could be a working hypothesis!
