Granting power to those whose capacity limits them to a parasitic relationship was and remains a bad idea.

I am subject to believe "The Next Ten Years" is an extremely optimistic time frame. I am more incline to think there will be full on, armed to the teeth race wars within the next five years but probably more likely within the next two.

I guess I find it very difficult to envision anything but a massive fecal wall cloud swirling about on our horizon. And, I suspect, it all began when we transitioned out of the Pepsi generation and into the "Me" generation.

Cis is a newspeak word to describe people who are comfortable in their own gender. The idea was promoted by a guy who thinks he is a gay woman. Wrap your mind around that one for a while.

to Anon @ 10:59 - "cis" is that which isn't "trans". It's a riff on chemistry, now used as another identifier, like "gay" and "queer" used to be normal words before they were taken over and twisted.

Pat just about said it all.

If it's going to happen, let it happen soon so that I can go to face my maker with a massive body count on my ledger and possibly on my way to hell, and my kids get to the Pearly Gates body count free.

Well, they've finally managed to Balkanize this country more than the Austria-Hungary Empire under the Hapsburg's. Well done New World Order! You've managed to find every selfish, ego-centric, mentally ill, instant gratification-minded freak in the u.S., create a "victimized" sub-class for them and handed them marching orders. Only think-tanks like Rand or Tavistock could have come up with this one..

Well, the fact of the matter is that unless someone forgets to feed and water them they will continue on their merry way. You are witnessing a profound regression to the mean which, in this case, is primordial pond scum.

Most likely tipping point would be if the EBT system stops working.

Of course, lots of really interesting times have been kicked off without ever going through the most likely tipping point.

One likely scenario has the real "shot heard round the world" being the result of an ND by a guy who had been drinking his breakfast in a Lexington tavern waiting for the regulars to finally show up.

Oh well!
