If you look at the Balkans, it has always been a powder keg of violence and misery. It was a problem to the Byzantines when the occupied it, to the Ottomans, when they did and to the Austrians when they had their chunk. The problems with the Balkans was what started WW1. This problem was "solved" when the Soviets occupied. They managed to get them to cooperate through terror. When they collapsed in '91, the Balkans returned to their natural state.
The issue is when a multi-cultural ethnostate has its different peoples hating each other. That was the big problem with the Balkans. Everyone hated each other and were willing to go to war to get what they want. (I simplified the issues as its an academic thesis to understand it all.)
The issue is that the US has become the same. In France, there are no hyphenated French people. They are French. In the US, you have French-Americans, African-Americans, German-Americans, etc. Each of the peoples are different in their own ways. To be American is to set the first part aside and just be American. It is something up here in Canada that we need to learn to do. (But that won't happen and we're fucked.) But there are many of the minority groups that see themselves as getting the short end of the stick. Now they want to fight for it all. Violence is coming. A race war is coming. Maybe not in all of the nation, but enough to cause significant disruption. I think it'll get so bad the US will Balkanize. In five years, there won't just be one US, but many.
For the cities, it is a common understanding (In my mind) that cities are just bricks and steel and concrete. But that's like saying I'm just skin and bones. For me, its my characters, soul and personality that make up who I am. Same thing with cities. The people make up the cities. Just like that neighborhood you got chased out of. It's the people that count. We say "Cities are Dangerous" as its easier. Cities are nothing without the people and if the people are violent, then the city is violent.
Many Democrats and their communist allies feel they have won, that they'll win in 2022 proving elections are unnecessary, that they will rule indefinitely. When the Russians took power, they executed the Tsars, but the Tsars supported fought on creating the White Russian factions. This war lasted years. The democrats and their communist allies think they are in this period. That they just need to stop the few republicans standing up to them. Then its Utopia time. I hear all the time from Communists how they talk about their Utopia. How it'll be a grand place to live. These people haven't studied history. The first thing a Communist Dictator does one they have power is to purge there fellow revolutionaries. They did it once and will do it again. So the left eats the left.
Unless the course is changed and soon, then these riots will spread. How soon until they start taking territory? How soon until they take a town and declare it independant? What do they do to the mayor of said town?
I'm only Canadian. We have our own problems. But as a studier of history, I understand what the US has done for the Western World. A big part of the Canadian Identity is "Not-US-as-US-Bad." But we rely on the US as the corner stone of our way of life. If the US Balkanize, then I don't know what the world will look like afterward. Will China become the world police like the US was? Will the Middle East do it? Will India? Europe? No one?
My best prediction is that the US crumbles in five years. This creates a power vacuum. China takes Taiwan. Russia takes back all its old Soviet Territory. The world goes crazy and a dozen territorial wars break out. No US, what will keep the war together?
I think we're dead as a country. I hope we can rise from the ashes like a phoenix, going back to the democratic republic our Founders envisioned. But I have my doubts, our people lost their way and we're paying for years of decadence and sins.
Nick, Gen Z gonna give no ducks about a lot stuff one of those is we are all the same BS that only gen x and Y really got to taste before race relations went off the cliff. That sad truth is most of the world is racist and it works.
The USA is the la la land it pretends to be something that has never worked and will never work. Now I am not denying there are parties at play making it far far worse but you just have to look at the eternal 13/50 meme that comes out of 4chan to know it's really is one demographic behind most of the crime. I just hope we go to Brazil instead of south Africa because South Africa is what no one wants and look at the Boer genocide to see what they WILL do if they gain power.
A lot people will do some very violent to stop south africa America if that comes clear the path we on. The only problem is the government betting and preparing for just that. They purging the brass in the miltary so we might already be doomed. I see no out but violence. It has been baked in for a long time now and no pull up gonna stop it.
No, everything the powers that be do is to poke violence out of the majority white Christian populace. Anyone that does that is then used as an example of why they need to stop white supremacy (when usually its a glow-in-the-dark exploiting some mentally ill person to Jan 6th was a damn inside job.) The right has a VERY VERY bad habit of drawing the line of that's too extreme while the left will support anyone who is arrested and give them support after they get out. The right has failed, and any attempt at organization gets you on a fed watch list or trying to go violent before it's the right time.
The only hope I have is state governments going extreme and backing out FED support and pulling their National Guard out of the National Miltary. That's the only way things get even and we have a chance to Stop the Violence is with State's threatening and backing up citizens.
The current race problems seem entirely manufactured to me. (I am multiracial and get kinda tired of explaining my unlikely and complicated lineage and checking boxes on paperwork.) It's a real tragedy because no other country brings together so many people from all over the world, and in our daily real lives there's no racism in work, education or business. But perception can be stronger than reality it seems, especially when it feeds off old fears and stereotypes.
On a topic to what I understand. Meat. I grew up where the Omaha steaks were raised (knew some of the family who had the first herds). It is OK, but the stuff they sold to the local meat market was much better.
What is going on in industry right now is a few large players control most meat production in North America, and they are under "tobacco level" pressure to stop. Gates owns vast tracks of farmland, and is very clear about how no met production can be done by those who work or rent the land. Now, I am not saying steaks or pork will go away completely, but the Elite have decided that meat eating is Bad Thoughts, and taking steps tear it down.
Buy local if you can. Here, you find a farmer and buy a half a cow (sounds like you are doing the same). I like to pick mine out first, but as a farm kid it is something I know. That cuts out the big players, makes the farmer and local butcher more money, and typically tastes a lot better.
For the other topic, well remember anything posted will get out. I agree with where we seem to be heading. Don't like it, don't want it, not sure what to do to stop it other than live my life.
Gates is evil, like the kind history will condemn when his secrets are finally released. This anti-America agenda and what he does with the food supply is evil.

I be agree on all points. I hope we’re not done.

I feel you be are right. Something g I’d about to happen.
I fear this is right, that violence is coming.... but maybe a peaceful divorce is still possible?

The States was how we won the Revolution. Not Rebellion haphazardly. State Governments is the only out I see.
