      1960s generation took over from m WWII generation. We had a communist counterrevolution in the US in the 1960s. It was disguised as a civil rights movement but ALL KINDS of things were happening here in that decade that we never have recovered from even today. And as we're starting to see starting a decade or so ago, the children of the '60's revolutionaries aren't much better.
      This same revolution spilled over to western Europe, resulting in "white guilt syndrome" there, as well as here. Then came the anti-colonial con job, then came the gender benders, welfare state, tremendous nat'l debt, the blame - America-first crowd started, then the endless excuses for communist aggression. Communist ideology powerfully survived the fall of the nation state of USSR and has wreaked havoc with three generations of America, seizing one entire U.S. political party, bringing this nation to great crisis and tumult. But those that might push back are scared away as being racist, sexist, MAGA, etc, while communist treason runs rampant in both sides of the Atlantic - disguised as "equity," "save the earth," "righting past wrongs."
