Will the youth of America be willing and able to stop fascism?

31. That's my take on it too

Many people are still in denial about the reality that our democracy and our freedom is teetering on a knife's edge.

Between 1965 and 2022 there have been enormous changes in our society that IMO have contributed to our apathy.

From television through cable through the Internet, Americans have become fully commercialized and molded into mush brained consumers. Good consumers don't think about politics and have a knowledge of history - in fact, corporations don't want their customers to have good critical thinking skills.

I'm not sure that the younger folks will wake in time from that pleasant dream of a world in which bad things never happen and evil never wins, to save us.

Sure us geezers can take to the streets and raise the alarm until we are blue in the face, but the reality is that our time is running out. The way it always is, it's up to the young people to carry the torch forward.
