Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

We explore real-life reformation here in this informed, online community.

Is This Why Other Nations Laugh at America?

"...for the majority of the 343,000 personnel in the U.S. Navy, the mission is mostly one of readiness and deterrence, but rarely if ever of actual combat. This reality is apparently contributing to the challenge of recruiting new personnel, because as anyone who has read naval history knows, even during war, much of shipboard life is matter of dull routine. How to entice young men to serve on ships on which young women are a tiny minority—that is, places of confinement, isolation, restricted in almost every conceivable way?

For the last two hundred years, the Roman Catholic Church has faced a similar challenge in its effort to recruit priests and monks. As an ex Catholic priest once told me, one approach was to recruit gay boys from poor regions of the world who, because they are naturally attracted to men, did not perceive monastic life to be an onerous deprivation.

The U.S. Navy seems to have taken a leaf from the same playbook with its new "digital ambassador,” 24-year-old sailor Joshua Kelly, who is also a drag queen."

Picture a Tank Rolling Over a Chess Board

Many Republicans pride themselves on their chess-playing acumen. Dems write a tax increase bill, GOP players write one that doesn't increase taxes, and say, "We'll just checkmate these revolutionaries and WIN this one." Sometimes they do. But Since the Goldwater days, they've been whipped 90 percent of the time. So they study chess tactics harder.

In next three years, the Dems are rolling out an army of tanks. First mission: roll over every chess board and destroy them, leaving the elephants to wander around aimlessly, not knowing how to do politics.

How do we know this? Zoom calls over the last year. The Dems are done with chess.

Kunstler: "Democratic Party election ninja Marc Elias knocked himself out for two years registering new voters by the bale, as in manufacturing them. . . illegal aliens. . . homeless junkies. . . straight-up fictitious persons. . . in order to flood the zone with fake mail-in ballots, that is, in-your-face fraud. And the reason they did it was so ...

What Political Parties Used to Be

"No man is big enough to run this great Republic. There never has been one. Such domination was never intended. Tranquillity, stability, dependability—all are assured in party sponsorship. and we mean to renew the assurances which were rended in the cataclysmal war.”

Warren Harding, July 1920.

Angry Blue Voters or Something Else?

Could it be the architecture of a color revolution being erected? Who are the more serious political activists in the US? Do they just want votes, or something more?
