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.

Yeah, but what came between the two? What enabled the transition between the two?
Replying to @marwilliamson
The World Economic Forum is planning the exact opposite of a progressive era in the great reset, which they delineate to include a more rapid consolidation of wealth & power. That’s THEIR self-correcting. The elites are actively & openly against us and politicians work for them.

Continuing to speak up can heal. Tell us when your uncomfortable. Looking the other way has put the earth and it's people in danger. Fight for what is most calling to you, there's a reason for that.

If the left can stop tearing each other down and act like adults who unified for larger issues

Very optimistic. The last gilded age wasn't on the precipice of total climate collapse. That progressive self correction you speak of will have to move quick to avoid our extinction event. I can't say I have much faith seeing how people just keep accepting the abhorrent.

It was WW2 that upend the old order & ushered in the progressive era. This theory of disruption shows how established leaders won't change course much at all. online.hbs.edu/blog/post/4-k…

Corporatists have learned since then not to release power. Power is not conceded, It's taken. The best you can do is to use your platform to specifically & boldly call out neoliberals and prepare people that look to you for inspiration to see past partisan illusions.
