American democracy is exhausted - and US media elites are digging its grave

Steel yourself for whatever is coming to replace us when we're gone. Whatever it is, it won't be a nice as what we all grew up with, and that's for sure.

Some of us won't survive the transition.....I'm fairly certain that I won't. But it's been nice while it lasted.

Looking back 20 years ago technology and Media molded us into what we are today. I was part of the tribalism as a conservative. The politicians mimic the populace. The other side can't be trusted even with media sources. I've always been one to look at both sources because I wanted to know what my enemy was talking about. I started listening to Hannity and Colmes because I liked hearing both perspectives, Boy did it hurt when the media criticized my team but they were right at times. My team against your team mentality "I don't care how much cocaine they snort as long as they win!" just keeps us distracted from real issues that affect all Americans our health and finances.

I lost a lot of trust in my government when I found out about health. I asked myself where is the FDA? They're forcing me to take a COVID shot while allowing corporations to poison me. Our doctors are just pill pushers. Foods that make us crave more. False science from the sugar industry. The list goes on...

Once I learned a little about the economy and finances and the dangerous path of our government spending, I left my tribe and begged God to remove all sources of tribalism. Republicans have been talking about debt for 15 years and here we are 120% debt to GDP and also they are a major cause of debt with trillion on wars. The left is the same broken record. I was naive to think our politicians knew what they were doing with fiscal policy.

As a Boomer, I'm embarrassed for what I left my kids. Besides the Kuwait war, I had 30 good years of peace and rock & roll. Now I left my kids with wars and rumors of wars. I can't blame millennials they grew up in the mess boomers allowed. Peace

I feel like we've been 'duped', and for a very long time now.

I honestly don't know how people make it thru life these days without faith in Jesus Christ ...
