Anathema
Crotchety Olde Man
After the events of the last couple days, it appears clear to me thst the future iof America will be determined in the next few years, and not by the politicians.
There is a growing dissent amongst various factions in the population about whst the Society and Culture of this nation should be going forward.
With the inability of any particular political group to gain sufficient power to unilaterally implement and enforce their viewpoint for any extended period of time, smaller, Socially active groups like the Alt-Right, the Resistance, BLM, and others are taking up the mantle of activism for their viewpoints.
As seen in recent months, this is likely to lead to violent confrontations. Those events, if not restrained, are liable to lead to full scale battles in the streets. Thise battles will require Government response which will only serve to provoke further violence, likely in a terroristic form.
The continued rhetoric and rise of violence will eventually end up inciting a civil war . The conflict will likely touch almost every corner of the nation, engulfing most neighborhoods in at least emotional if not physical bloid and fire.
The end of the conflict will not be quick or pleasant. Regardless of which side wins, the current state of American Culture, Society and Politics will be gone forever. The victorious side will purge supporters of the other side from the country. Many freedoms will be lost. A new, very different America will emerge.
