Americans are way too divided at a fundamental level to the point that you can say that the USA has an identify crisis at the moment and it is one that goes deeper than mere politics. The very identity of the nation is not something either party agrees on. This level of fracture is not something a country can survive with and thus the collapse will is inevitable.
shareThe West is finished. The rot set in after WW2 and it has been all downhill from there.
True
shareAgreed
shareHardly, Quasi. The US successfully kept Communism at bay for 75 years. And while doing that, they took Man to the moon. That wasn't the work of a rotting society.
But now they've put the vanguard for Communism into a position of power over them. They'll go downhill rather quickly now.
I AM glad Trump lost and DID vote against him, but this was a hollow victory if anyone thought this would bring the country together at all or be some sort of repudiation of Trump. For starters, we have to get through all this before Biden even gets sworn in:
1) recounts
2) lawsuits
3) Trump's refusal to concede
4) Senate run-offs
5) unforeseen events we can't even guess at yet.
If we can weather this period and Biden proves half-way competent, then we'll see.
WE ALWAYS SUCK AS A NATION WHEN WE DONT HAVE AN ENEMY TO FIGHT...AMERICA MIGHT COLLAPSE ON ITSELF A BIT,BUT IT ONLY TAKES ONE ASSHAT TO PUT US BACK TOGETHER.
