All of our civilizational systems are failing. Not because they are inherently flawed and thus doomed to ultimately cycle down into dust nor due to the effects of any natural law of entropy. Every system of ours from top to bottom is failing because every last system our civilization runs and depends on has been politicized and is now operated and/or administered only to serve ideological ends and means.

All of our laws, the one's that actually make it, are created to serve political and ideological agendas. By the same token all laws which should be passed, ones our nation and its people desperately need to improve the function of our civilization and our very lives, never make it because ideological and political infighting kill them dead. Every last human being, drunk on their own vanity or not, knows from near birth it is fundamentally wrong and anti-human to murder the most vulnerable form of human life by the tens of millions or at all. Just one example, but a very relevant one to our Age. And yet, half the country cheers on this by law sanctioned mass murder solely for political reasons. Because the ideological "good guys" convinced them it was good.

And so it goes with the enforcement of our laws. Very much so, depending on where one resides in America, a given police department might or might not enforce the same laws similarly, fairly or at all, based on the political ideology that rules whatever town, city, county or state. Take the George Floyd incident for instance. In some locations around America cops have been taking a knee on suspects' necks for decades. Either no one was the wiser or there was a mass multi-departmental cover-up of perpetrator deaths caused by this restraint technique. But because all of our laws are enforced based on the ideology of the rulers of whatever area, Floyd's death, a death of no particular consequence at the time, and certainly not national news worthy, was driven around the world by the politicization of how we enforce our laws. Restraining a dangerous suspect from harming civilians or arresting officers is vital to the process of enforcing American laws. But now, due to politicization of the incident, both civilians and officers everywhere find themselves at higher risk of a violent suspect slipping away and causing more mayhem. Enter the case of Rayshard Brooks.

Now? Now the risk to a few officers or gawking or passerby civilians of an improperly restrained violent suspect has gone thermonuclear out of all our control; out of your control, my control and out of the control of any level of our government? How? Why? Because now, post the politicization of Floyd's unremarkable death, our Congress, our local and state leaders, they're trying to pass or already have passed countless (yes, politicized) dangerous laws to restrict or outright abolish the tactical capability of our police officers to not only enforce the law but respond to 911 calls for people in real imminent danger.

But it's all gone even farther than that. Because of the politicization of the enforcement of laws that led to Floyd's death and the ideology that globalized it, hundreds of millions of dollars in private and public property have been destroyed by rioter-terrorists. Countless lives have been lost or violently damaged by mob violence. Once possibly peaceful protestors have been radicalized into terrorist insurrectionists and even the movement that is responsible for doing that has in turn been radicalized into a full blown attempted revolution or coup d'état against our elected, standing government.

Now here we stand . . . the very survival of our great nation in question, in doubt. All because we elected and in doing so enabled leaders who got to the point where they (with us cheering them on in the background) politicized every last fucking law and aspect of how those laws can and should be enforced. And every court decision and/or ruling as well, but that's a topic for a standalone book on the subject.

Politicization and ideological differences enforced by decades of false narratives are killing the spirit and corpus of our nation. All we had to do was insist, even if by mass violence, that our leaders lead always by objectivism rather than feelings. Is it too late by this late, late hour to salvage our ancient, historically unique governmental system? My best guess is yes; yes it is too late by far because even the last breaths of our civilization will be politicized on international TV. Which leaves one of two outcomes coming to pass. An America run by a political cult who uses terrorism and mass mob violence and resulting chaos as its primary governing tools or an America run by a tyrant who crushes all traces of politicization of laws and law enforcement and in doing so crushes most of everyone and everything else.

A toast . . . to the America that was.

I suggest you cut down the amount of words, and make a clear and concise statement. Half or more of the members here have never read a book, cover to cover.
 
The Roman Empire ended with the sack of Rome in 410.

2020 will be remembered as the sack of America.
