I am 82 years old.
I have lived through the Cuban Missile Crisis, the JFK assassination, the Vietnam War, the Turmoil of 1968, Watergate, the Hostage Crisis, two oil crisis, disco, Reaganomics, 9/11.
The covid pandemic....
These past 11 months have been easily the most miserable era in America in my lifetime.
The hatred, the bigotry, the lies, the racketeering and pedophilia are beyond anything I have ever seen.
We are not going to hell as a nation.
We are IN hell.A hell of our own making, no less..

We are IN hell.Four years younger, but same same. Except I've felt like this was coming since 2016.
But when I think about it, I think it started way back with Citizens United.

@Ann1944 I have lived through the same pile of stuff. You are still worse off than I though as I live in Canada. You have my deepest sympathy. I won't pray for you though as trump being alive proves that prayer does not work.
@Ulrich_the_elder
I also live in Canada. My Dad was Canadian, my Mom a British war bride. I was born during one of Germany's bombing raids. -
@Ann1944 Don't forget that one time you (sorry, they) bombed a girls school in Iran and killed over a hundred children between the age of 7 and 12. I guess their siblings and parents feel pretty bad as well.
@alpacamale
I am not American, I am Canadian, we didn't bomb anyone!! -

We are IN hell.@Ann1944 I don't intend to argue about how bad things are now, however segregation in the US lasted until the 1960s an beyond.
You were 11 years old when Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give her seat to a white person on the bus.

We are IN hell.@Ann1944 it's interesting and true when you say this is the most miserable in america. But the situations the usa has created elsewhere in the past can be a good bit worse...
If you describe the situation within the USA now as hell, I'm thinking about how it was/is in viet nam, in cambodia, in palestine, iraq, etc. Not even talking about the colonies yet. The usa has been creating hell on earth, but foremost, elsewhere.

@s1m0n4
Segregation is still going on now. I am against all the hatred in the world. I live in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, right across from Detroit. I remember when the whole city was torn apart with Whites against Blacks. We are all equal in my mind, but I realize your people have suffered & did not mean to offend you. What is going on in the States right now is because the white population is afraid they are losing the upper hand & the white supremists are doing everything to keep what they consider their right to be at the top of the totem pole. Please accept my apology if I offended you, -

We are IN hell.And it is all due to one con man, his lies, his manipulation, his narcissistic perversion and his Republican followers that this came to be.
Triggered by the internal neoliberal capitalist rot that made few ultrarich much to influential.
The resemblance with the 1930s is striking in a distorted, perverted way.
The question is, how to change this unconstitutional and undemocratic aberration… he and his yes men need to be held accountable, or it simply might happen again.
