What will it take to break America out of its delusion?

[Samseau]

I wish I could share the optimism of many others in this thread. When I was younger, I definitely felt like Anabasis but cold bitter experience has doused those flames.

I agree that America still has it better than most. I disagree that America is good. America being the best shit sandwich in a world of dogshit isn't exactly something to be proud of.

The vast majority of people I encounter aren't doing too hot. And I live in one of the richest parts of the USA. Many of my friends have made it, I am comfortable, but we're just lucky. I couldn't tell anyone how to replicate our successes.

I have a friend who is down and out, and he applied for instacart as a part-time job. He showed up for the interview, and there were twelve other applicants. Out of those twelve, 3 got the job. Sweet dear God almighty, how is the USA doing well when a fucking grocery shopper job can be so selective as to reject 75% of its applicants? This economy is FUBAR, this country is in deep shit. Right now everything is running on debt.

My experiences match the official stats, which is why the USA's M2 Money Velocity is in deep depression levels right now.

So yeah, America is still the best, but America has declined tremendously and unless Trump is elected it will get much worse in the future (and even Trump may be unable to do anything). The fact that America is the best is extremely ominous not just for the future of Western Civilization, but the rest of the world as well. If things do not turn around soon, we are going to find ourselves in a massive dark age by the end of our lifetimes. People will be unable to maintain technology, infrastructure, economy, military, etc.

Talk to any old man, they will tell you how much better things used to be in America, so just imagine how much worse things can get by the time we're old men.

Or it is functioning as intended. Maybe this go around will convince some that Capitalism doesn't give a fuck about the idealism you project onto it. But that has a lower likelihood of success than pulling an AFC out of the fem-centric. You all have access to the analogy par-excellence (hypergamy), and still refuse to look around.

Neither. The giant sucking sound into the wallets of the "donors" is working as intended, but they're too myopic to see that they're detroying the economy in the process.

What's funny is that if you spelled it correctly, I would've disagreed. But your Freudian slip is near-perfection.

For a lot of native-born Americans it's gotten nothing but worse since the 1990's. You can still make money and there's plenty of opportunity, but therein lies the (((mindfuck))): It's almost not worth it to make a good living in this country anymore. Yes, the girls are easy. Millennial girls in particular are truly down for whatever. For this we give thanks, but the vast majority of women are either demented, fat, or both. While not at European levels, a good percentage of the men are passive-aggressive cucks. Everyone's distracted on their phones. They majority are in debt that they'll likely never pay. Almost any job is practically indentured servitude where you're supposed to eat shit like a good little house slave for some diabetic pigman. The low-level jobs are swamped with immigrants who will work for way less and never complain. People are medicated to the gills. The ones who aren't medicated are either A. Depressed or B. In the gym solely to avoid depression and to do ATM with the aforementioned millennial girls... It's a mentally retarded culture of obese, consumers distracted by their fucking phones.

I get it's easier to make money here than anywhere else. I will also concede that the best way to go is BE AN ENTREPRENEUR // FORGET THAT 9-5 LIFESTYLE // BE YOUR OWN BOSS. The majority of people aren't going to start up their own shop, and for the employee this shit is only going to get worse... The majority of the US is in a not-so-quiet desperation as this country's been strip-mined. Money's worth way less than even ten years ago, but it's "STILL BETTER THAN AFRICA..."

^ So fucking what that it's better than Africa, India, or wherever else? Do we get a Diversitopia Participation Trophy for that fucking bullshit??

Don't kid yourself that this bloated, degenerate, shithole of a Republic is only going to get worse and all the positive thinking, self improvement, and dank Pepe the Frog Trump memes aren't going to change a thing.

People are governed by their own self-interest. Until it affects them directly, or hits a little too close to home for comfort, they're not likely to wake up from their delusion. Unfortunately, this means things will likely get a whole lot worse before they have any hope of getting better. The vast majority of people would seemingly rather accept a pretty lie than the ugly truth.

Fuck I feel sick right now...

I was just in line and I turn around and saw this fat young thing (woman) in a short dress with a 'you can do it' tattoo on her arm. It had a picture of a feminist flexing her bicep... Her ugly fat boyfriend was buying 2 copies of the new stars wars.

I don't think I can wait 2 more months to head back to the East. Where ever I go, feminine men and muscular women... I don't know if I'm stuck in a nightmare or what...

Seriously I don't know how you guys don't go crazy... Dogs meowing, cats barking..

Does anybody have Anabasis' contact? I have been going through his posts today. He's my countryman and soul brother based on his posts.

PM me if you have any leads on how to contact him.

Thanks in advance,

A Carrington level event (solar flare) that leaves the majority of the globe dark for a few months at least that fries more or less all electronics and power grids (cars, hospitals, ATM's, social payments, hard drives).... and its going to happen. A good blast would and is going be the biggest calamity of our lifetimes.

I often wonder why its not discussed and every device has a mandatory faraday cage.

You think the USA and Europe is fun now? Wait until people come to face when they have to fight with the immigrants for food and water and they'll see how much the refugees came for the love of the country alone.

It'll be like a spell broken in a fantasy film, when we can't do anything electronically.

Hunting states will be fine as 1. Most have excellent agriculture And 2 we love to hunt. The weakest states would be liberal states or states with a high population to land ratio.

True to an extent, but being from a rural area of the south that is agricultural heavy. I have noticed over the years the rates of younger millennials that know how to hunt, fish and have experience in larger scale agriculture dwindling fast.

My family's farm struggles to find skilled labor and farm hands, we also have a hunting club with the average younger member age being in their late 30's and other than sport fishing our commercial fishing industry was decimated years ago by the federal fisheries.

My younger male cousins are more interested in social media, video games and skateboarding than hunting, fishing and learning to work with their hands. They are as weak as city slicking liberals.
