The last Gilded Age was followed by a Progressive Era and this one will be too. People will only take so much. America has self-corrected in the past and we’re going to self-correct again.

Karl Rove's favorite president is McKinley (Gilded Age.) Trump's favorite Jackson, who trashed qualified people & installed sycophants. QAnon dominates the GOP w/Trump replacing Jesus. Democrats surrender to Republicans. People own ARs. It will be extremely violent.
Hope you are right. I don’t see it. People just keep showing up to the polls and voting #Democrat or #Republican. Kid you not, I have relatives who think they are voting for “the good guys” when they cast Dem on Election Day..

Some of us will be here, writing, thinking, and trying to figure it out, ushering in the next progressive age. I want to coax the next progressive age along.
Really? The gilded age of the robber barons is still here, alive and kicking. We don't need a fake change of scenery, we need a revolution akin to 1789 france. America is the land of the corrupt and the home of banksters.

This correction needs a HUGE FORCE of Love and Conviction!
Its either that or slip into fascism. Both outcomes seem to be equally as likely.
unless people like trump, who may be smarter, gain the White House/high positions in government. there need to be more consequences for insurrectionists. #ArrestTrumpNow

The last guided age was followed by a shit show. America survived it bc FDR knew that the elite had to give or be slaughtered. This time, the elite have dug in. Hard. I see dark days ahead.

New Deal wasn't self correction. It was self preservation for the US oligarchy/business mafia.
