Russia, 1917. As World War I drags on, political turmoil slowly paralyzes the Empire. The Czar abdicates. His replacements are ineffectual and incompetent. Violence sweeps the country. One by one, institutions collapse under the weight of chaos and terror. The Bolsheviks, a small group of communist radicals initially supported by German intelligence, launch a revolution that sends the country into a tailspin. The nation is plunged into a terrible civil war which by its end will leave over 10 million Russians dead, with millions more scattered across the globe.

Bump for any not aware of the Bolshevik Revolution.

Sounds vaguely familiar, but I just can’t quite put my finger on it. Sarcasm

Once we elect our way out of this in November, everything will be more better and back to normal.

A lot of folks who lived through WW l will be voting in the '22 mid terms, I predict a Bolshevik landslide.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Think again about voting our way out of it. They still own the judicial and the same corrupt machines are going to be used in November. Mail in ballots will also be used. Too many pare content to think Biden action the last election. They’ll steal every election going forward.

Are you really this dense?

Russia (along with Soviet Eastern Europe) and the US are like ships passing in the might.

Our extreme wealth has spoiled us. Dostoyevsky pointed out man’s inability to live without struggle and, like Rome, we are killing ourselves out of boredom.

Hopefully, everything will be better and back to normal. If they don't try to rig the election again, everything will be better and back to normal.

Maybe someone mentioned this already, but did you miss the part about the Dems stealing the last presidential "election" and getting away with it?


It must be nice to have even a vestige of faith left in the system.

The democRATs and maybe even a few republicans are going to try and rig the election. At every election someone is trying to rig it so they have the edge. If that is NOT the mindset we carry at every election we will be right back to 2020. Cheaters will cheat EVERY TIME ! That is how we should be thinking from this day forward.

(((They))) are using the same sorts of strategies to bring down the US, and the West in general, as we speak.

Yep. The US has “benefitted” from essentially getting to run history’s largest “Ponzi Scheme”. We managed to get the whole WORLD to believe that we are financially strong, that our currency is worth something, and that they should invest with us, based on that.

That was TRUE, in the 40’s/50’s/60’s. We had manufacturing that suppled the World with goods.

These days, we produce next to nothing (compared to China et al). Meanwhile, we’re still running around like we’re providing something special, and living like a bunch of Bernie Madoff’s.

When other countries “wise up”, and drop the Dollar as “reserve currency”, it’s gonna be a rude awakening to all the folks in this country who have made a living either shuffling papers or sitting on their azz. (And the folks who ACTUALLY work aren’t gonna have a cakewalk, “supporting” these leaches, even MORE than they already are...).
