It literally took democracy to basically collapse and people to literally die on the streets for some groups to wake up

For you...

It took demographicsyou identify with experiencing those things for you to notice groups waking up.

But different demographics have been thru this for generations, and various groups have been waking up to it for just as long

So congrats for joining us. Just try to remember you're not the first, and you hopefully won't be the last. Look around and realize that as you come up with "new" ideas, some people been in this so long they learned it from their grandfather before they learned how to ride a bike.

That's a good thing for you. You don't have to start from scratch.

Just open your eyes some more, stay woke, don't get mad your not a leader and quit.

For you…

I am not claiming nobody noticed... I am saying the overall voting population of the USA did not.

Sure there have been people sounding bells of this collapse for a while but nobody listened and the USA voted a pedophile into office for a second term.

If SOME people noticed earlier, well that's great, but at the end of the day the dumb masses drove the country off the cliff

You still don't understand.

But unfortunately repeati g my advice is unlikely to help regardless of if I do it now or a month from now if we run into each other again.

Nothing personal, I just don't wanna go thru this again later if I know how it'll end.

You still don’t understand.

yes, I do not get what you are trying to say... it didn't even sound like advice.

I am not trying to be confrontational, I just don't get what your point is
