Human Society/civilization is a series of revolutions and counter-revolutions..
We notice a problem, then address it. Before, People get mad about the societal changes and any over reach and we undo 90% of the progress the revolution made..
Civil Rights is a perfect example of that..
Revolution: The problem of slavery leads to the civil war. Which brings about abolition and a big, but short lived effort toward black sufferage..
Counter revolution: the pushback to reconstruction and black sufferage led to arguably the worse episode of racial violence in American history in the aftermath of the war and the retreat from reconstruction..
We got rid of slavery, but swiftly undid all the other progress made I the south.. leading to the KKK resurgence of the early 1900s.
Revolution: the 1960s civil rights movement led to massive jumps in equality and civil rights..
Counter-revolution: the push back to affirmative action and such, leads to the “welfare queen” narrative and the war on drugs..
Revolution: the first “black” president.
Counter revolution: the tea party movement and now trump..
So what does the pushback to trump look like in the future??
How far does the pendulum swing back the other way in the wake of Trump’s craziness?????

Corruption ruled DC to such a degree during the last administration...this is the result.
Well, since corruption and scumbaggery are the baselines for the liberals.
People on gibs are resorting to emotional manipulation, like they always have and will.
Not really a new concept, it's grifting 101.

These anti Trump threads get more and more ridiculous every day.

Sadly, another thread (this one) reported for not following ATS thread-creation rules. Maybe JoshuaCox is a forum owner? He never gets punished like us "little guys".
