Does anyone think america is slowly falling apart?
>last two years start seeing massive political rallies >start seeing clashes and fights between huge groups >starting seeing a level of hatred and animosity i have never seen before >nothing was this bad during bush/obama years >both political parties solely exist to blockade/impede the other one >everyone getting poorer, more unequal
i feel like america is slowly drifting downwards and nothing is stopping it. has me kinda worried and if trump decides to start wars and get bogged down in MORE insurgencies and shit its only going to become a huge clusterfuck at home.
you are young and this is your first time witnessing political agitation

more social media. Obama only got in because no one wanted to seem racist not voting for him, can you imagine the basketball American outcry if he had lost?
Mason Martinez
i'm 25 and have followed obama/bush era politics for decades.
the only big rallies were glenn beck peaceful marches/iraq war protests/random globalization protests and it was calm as fuck and civil.
the shit i'm seeing now is unprecedented. antifa and radical SJWs/alt-right did not exist and people were firmly in the democrat-republican spectrum. now they are entirely outside of it and anti-system in general.
shit literally feels weimar-tier.
William Davis
>both political parties solely exist to blockade/impede the other one Thats good for populace, government needs to stop expanding.
>everyone getting poorer, more unequal If everyone is getting poorer, they share that equal trend.
>get bogged down in MORE insurgencies N Korea isn't an insurgency, its an all or nothing bombing attack.
Easton Hall
>not seem racist voting for him
nope. he was actually a good campaigner and promised great, bernie-sanders tier things. he was just another politician though it turns out.
i remember obama-romney and obama-mccain quite strongly. obama-romney he won by default because romney was classist as fuck.
Elijah Gray
The Bush years were a neverending hell for this kind of thing. There were like a million people who marched to protest the Iraq War here, and that's only one country.
Isaiah Garcia
if they occupy north korea, i don't think it's going to be over in a month. it might last long depending on how closely people actually follow jong-un.
i think south korea will easily stabilize the peninsula and offer aid/economy/jobs but its hard to tell.
Matthew Ramirez
no everything is relatively fine m8 thanks for the concern, understandable and have a good day
Samuel Reyes
yeah but that was over quickly. it wasn't even violent either and people were angry at bush, both left and right. veterans for peace were prominent leaders protesting for example.
the current protests is more people both hate/tolerate the current government but hate each other more.
Joseph Hall
lol you're really delusional if you honestly think this
Nathan Howard
Both sides are made up of privileged idealistic retards who want to be part of the next great political movement, this has happened in every country ever since the 1970s
Gabriel Kelly
you're right. but every campaigner promises shit. he won over the vote because he's black prove me wrong.
Luis Walker
Nationalists dont breed hatred, we simply want the establishment of our peoples community and to protect our people, we have no desire to murder others.
Joshua Clark
>lol you're really delusional if you honestly think this >A July 18–21, 2008 NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll showed that 20% of African American registered voters and 8% of white registered voters considered race the single most important factor when voting

Nah, just ordinary local retardation.

Nah, everyone's just being a loud faggot nowadays because every dunce with a modicum of charisma and an opinion can talk shit in the net
Angel Anderson
lol in the 70s they had militant black guys walking around with guns in their hands, in the 90s they had the goverment literally killing militias and religious fanatics with armored vehicles and militants blowing up government buildings with hundreds of people in retribution and today a bunch of college kids insult each other on twitter and that is supposed to be the end?
Yes, this is the end of America, and unfortunately Canada will be dragged down with us. Prepare for scarce resources, and tribal warfare. If you were smart, you would immigrate to Europe where everything is safe.

Does anyone think that Sup Forums is even more obsessed with us than usual in the last few days? Must be Trump's war mongering? We will be fine. But I am glad it rubs you fuckers the wrong way.

Most of those posting under the US flag on Sup Forums, are self-hating whites and millennial progressives of the following type:
They desire the transformation of the United States into a non-white country, and are actively leading the charge to turn it more diverse and multicultural, while marginalizing the white males and reducing their social and economic power. Many of them are members of Antifa, and all of them fully support the protests taking place on college campuses, where they receive their liberal arts degrees. They consider it important to include PoC in all forms of media because it helps people especially in Western countries to make the psychological adjustments that are necessary for the transformation of their countries into multicultural societies.
They despise white America more than the most anti-Americans on Sup Forums are capable of, and are the most eager proponents of its destruction. The leading figures of the anti-American and anti-white intellectual movement in the US, are almost entirely composed of white males. They are united in their belief in and support for the extermination of the white working class demographic in the US. They consider it, just like the extermination of the bourgeoise in Marxist ideology, to be an inevitable step in the creation of a post-racial, multicultural United States, where the power is no longer dominated by white men, but distributed among women, ethnic and sexual minorities.
They are actively celebrating the death by suicide and drug overdose of the white American males, as they hold these people responsible for Trump's election and for holding bigoted, racist and homophobic views. It gives them satisfaction.

We've been through a lot worse in the 60's and 70's and it's not in the interests of our elites to be ruling over ashes. The only way I can see a legit SHTF scenario is a second great depression or if the multikulti leads into Lebanon-style sectarianism.
Austin Gomez
lol, i didn't notice that. at least it's safe? not very manly, but safe.
Evan Wilson
Going with this. The divisiveness and the mutual hatred both parties have for each other may feel more intense for you now because you're old enough to identify with one side and actually have a grasp of the situation. I'm the same way. I'd imagine the 60s were like this but even worse.
Adam Rogers

Angel Young
They're progressive.... to death, I hope.
Ryder Hall
The already existing political tension are being fueled by the era of social media. Even regular media outlets have been influenced by it. It's not necessarily something new, just overblown, and more public appearing thanks to the explosive popularity of social media. In reality most of the US is the same as it ever was. It's really just isolated pockets.
Logan Rodriguez
>bush 8 years >obama 8 years >decades
Jeremiah Flores
he is also 25. he's followed politics since he was 5 y.o. or less ("decades" it's minimum two decades i.e. 20 years) :^)
Hudson Lopez
In all honesty most of takes place on social media, any irl events that happen are uncommon but more noticed.
John Allen
Violence is lower now than it was 30 years ago. Political rallies that exist now have minuscule attendance compared to the ones that were held in the past. A lot of people certainly have a feeling that there is a ton of political turmoil in the country, but why?
People who care about politics can now vent and discuss online and never actually do any physical agitation. But with the internet the only way you can get attention is by turning it up to 11, so news companies and anyone else that can affect political opinion have to resort to sensational bullshit in order to get enough ad revenue to cover their massive costs. If there's anything Gawker and Buzzfeed have taught us is that the only way you can afford to pay journalists for an online-only publication is through clickbait yellow journalism, and those companies like CNN that aren't internet-only are seeing their main source of revenue (cable TV) being slowly killed off. A majority of these media sources were liberal before the internet so whenever they had to turn up the sensationalism to make ends meet they sort of overloaded the population with radical liberal ideals.
But the internet also creates its own content in the form of social media. The radical content being pushed by the traditional media companies was being laid on so thick it caused some people to throw it off completely. Even the more sane liberals came to be viewed by these people as just another part of the noise. This lead to the increase in radical conservatism and its own equally vocal presence online.
So now both sides just continue to pump the internet with radical bullshit that makes everyone agitated and think the world is ending. In reality violence is low and the economy is on the rise, the country is not without problems but all those problems are behind magnified and presented to you in a dramatic way because of the transition from a TV dominated age to an internet dominated one.
Dylan Wilson
pretty spot on
Owen Carter
This happens in every country at some point. Most governments don't even survive one such period. America has survived several. This is nothing compared to - for example - the idiocy of the 1960s.
Leo Sanchez
It's really funny how the country is getting richer but the people are not. And they are so fucking stupid about it. Half of them even got tricked into thinking it was due to "bad business deals" and muh globalisation boogeyman when in reality probably no country benefited more from globalisation than America
Any Americans want to try and speculate why the wealth gap is *really* increasing?
Christian Hall
Because it's not trickling down like it supposedly ought to.

Nigga, in the 60's the United States had the Symbionese Liberation Army - an African American terrorist group operating throughout California, robbing banks and murdering white students. Despite this, it still enjoyed underground support from white students at the University of California, Berkeley.
There's nothing today that comes even close to those guys. Face it, these revolutionary types always burnout before they're 40.

This shit is no where near as bad as things that happened between the 60s and 80s in America, some shit in the 60s was fucking crazy.
The difference is now you have social media, easy internet outlets to spread info, everyone has a camera in their pocket, etc.
You're just able to get exposed to a thousand times more info instantly regarding the subject.
Christian Lewis
Nationalist by definition feed off opposition. If the country isn't seen as broken, there is nothing to reform. What we're witnessing is two nationalistic ideologies becoming bloated off of this shit show.
Jackson Garcia
This tbqh. Back in the day you wouldn't have almost 100% of the people involved + bystanders + media with $200 chink phones (at worst) to instantly upload to facebook and youtube then spread the links on reddit and Sup Forums.

Welcome to the current year.
The comfy post ww2 peace and stability is unpredecented in history and won't last. Growing inequality, ethnic conflicts due to forced massimmigration and multiculturalism, the collapse of social order due to progressivism, lack of sex and gf for millions of young men due to feminism and sexual liberation, internet allowing ideas to spread rapidly without control... it's all a brewing pot for a massive explosion. The coming decades will decide what happens to the west. It seems like we'll either go down the path of complete collapse and slow colonization by the Chinese, or we go full fascist-authoritarian and collapse anyway but possibly bringing down the world with us in a major conflict.

It's literally true though. Men these days are more lonely and sexually frustrated than ever before and it causes them to seek out extremism and radical solutions. If you look at European muslims who join ISIS, it's almost exclusively bullied sperglords. Same with Sup Forums.

The West has been slowly drifting leftward since female emancipation. It's simply reached a breaking point for the average Joe, who has had enough of the extreme equalism and political correctness. The pendulum is beginning to swing the other way, but there is no way that things will go back to the way they were. The West will fall, and in its place, a new white ethnostate may emerge, with less distinction placed individual subtypes of whites (Slavs, Germanics, Latins, etc.)
