That institutional strength will however begin to weaken in a decade or so should the present day split continue to grow and fester.
I'm curious as to how you settled on ten years, Renauda.
And Rainman, can it not be that short overt events (like CHOP and the statues) give an erroneous impression of the time flying by? Maybe they don't, maybe they're accurate indicators. But especially with events like these, short, sharp, shocking, mightn't it take the ordinary, non-statue tossing citizen time to assimilate his outrage, or what passes for it, and react?
I don't know. Just speculating.

Could even be a dozen or so. Just won't be any time soon, despite the domestic restlessness and current federal inept leadership at both executive and legislature levels. Contrary to what some people say, US institutions remain firm.
Elbows up!

Thanks, Renauda. You have made my morning. This message redd by me whilst eating a French bread pizza, so the credit might have to be split.

Of course theyre fine right now. Wait 12 months into a Biden presidency and you'll have to sing a different tune.

I doubt that Biden will win the November election.

@Renauda Right after I posted the above, I was reading about The Compassion Book, a compendium of Buddhist sayings intended to cultivate compassion and fearlessness. One of the sayings was, "Don't be swayed by external circumstances".

I agree with @Renauda
To me, the US system has a pretty good way of not letting things swing too far in one direction of the other.

Actually Renauda's prediction is that the sky will not fall this election but that it will in 12 years.
Education is extremely important.

That's more a Stoic thing than a Buddhist thing.

Good point Horace. I guess I dont fully agree with him then. 555555
I think that things will continue to move on in a good way in the US.

My prediction is that the world will end right after Trump makes his tax returns public.

No one said the sky would fall if Reagan was elected. I was there. Were you?
No one said the sky would fall if Bush was elected. I was there. Were You?
No 9ne said the sky would fall I'd Clinton was elected. I was there. Were You?
No one said the sky would fall if Bush was elected.
The sky did begin to fall when Obama was elected. We are seeing the results of his being in office right now. Just as you have agreed to already, these things do take time. But the root of all this racial tension and divisiveness got it's start because of Obama. Obama sold us out to China and globalism.You're stuck in a narrative that doesn't hold water.
-
The left's fetishization of race began long before Obama. He did not help because he loved that messaging. It was an important failure on his part IMO. There are plenty of AA folk who do not love that permanent victim messaging though, some even in the Republican party, and it seems clear that the right's best move is to elect one.

On the contrary, the sun will shine for you and a few others here in a dozen or so years.

I don't understand enough of your prediction to know whether that's fair to say. How about you, what is your judgement about your predicted outcome?
