    And it is a rerun of the first one. Same sides, same issues. The democrat controlled states are the slave states and the republican controlled states are the free states once again. These modern slave states keep their slaves by propaganda and manipulation instead of force. Instead of physical slavery, they use emotional and financial slavery. But minorities are still their slaves just the same.

    It is obvious now that the democrats never did let go of their slavery, they simply regrouped and recaptured their slaves in subtle ways using a much larger army of paid uncle tom traitors to spread their lies.

    All empires come to an end eventually - Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome, England, etc. There is no reason to think that the American Empire won't come to an end as well. Doesn't mean it comes to a sudden, catastrophic end, like Babylon. It can remain intact at its core and simply fade in power, like England. The far left and the far right have done and are doing tremendous harm. It would help if the Republican and Democratic Parties had not given such ground to the extremists and authoritarians in their midst during the 21st Century. But both of those parties became old and decrepit over the past 20 years and failed to respond to what was happening.

    They come to an end when the highly educated foils come to power.

    Maybe from an earthly viewpoint. However, it is God who raises up nations and then destroys them.

    Job 12:17 He leads counselors away plundered,
    And makes fools of the judges.
    18 He loosens the bonds of kings,
    And binds their waist with a belt.
    19 He leads princes away plundered,
    And overthrows the mighty.
    20 He deprives the trusted ones of speech,
    And takes away the discernment of the elders.
    21 He pours contempt on princes,
    And disarms the mighty.
    22 He uncovers deep things out of darkness,
    And brings the shadow of death to light.
    23 He makes nations great, and destroys them;
    He enlarges nations, and guides them.
    24 He takes away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the earth,
    And makes them wander in a pathless wilderness.
    25 They grope in the dark without light,
    And He makes them stagger like a drunken man. (emphasis mine)
