We\u2019re getting close to the end now. Can you feel it? \u00a0I do. \u00a0It\u2019s in the news, on the streets, and in your face every day. You can\u2019t tune it out anymore, even if you wanted to.<\/p>\n

Where once there was civil debate in the court of public opinion, we now have\u00a0censorship<\/a>,\u00a0monopoly<\/a>,\u00a0screaming<\/a>,\u00a0insults<\/a>,\u00a0demonization<\/a>, and, finally,\u00a0the use of force<\/a>\u00a0to silence the opposition. There is no turning back now. The political extremes are going to war, and you will be dragged into it even if you consider yourself apolitical.<\/p>\n

There are great pivot points in history, and we\u2019ve arrived at one. The United States, ruptured by a thousand\u00a0grievance groups<\/a>, torn by shadowy agencies drunk on a\u00a0gross excess of power<\/a>,\u00a0robbed blind by oligarchs<\/a>\u00a0and their treasonous henchmen and decimated by\u00a0frivolous wars<\/a>\u00a0of choice, has finally come to a point where the end begins in earnest. The center isn\u2019t holding\u2026 indeed, finding a center is no longer even conceivable. We are the schizophrenic nation, bound by no societal norms, constrained by no religion, with no shared sense of history, myth, language, art, philosophy, music, or culture, rushing toward an uncertain future fueled by nothing more than easy money, hubris, and sheer momentum.

There comes a time when hard choices must be made\u2026when it is no longer possible to remain aloof or amused, because the barbarians have arrived at the gate. Indeed, they are here now, and they often look a whole lot like deracinated, conflicted, yet bellicose fellow Americans, certain of only one thing, and that is that they possess \u201crights\u201d, even though they could scarcely form an…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
