(11,464 posts)when the mob goes and kills the monster (which in other words could be equated to a lynching) historically, what happens when the world is not perfect afterward?
who does the mob go after next?
BTW, Gorby tore down the walls and gave the USSR it's freedom
however, once he did, they tore Gorby down, and the people had no idea what to do next.
change was not immediate, therefore the people somewhat tore down what they had won to get immediate satisfaction
so what do they have now?
those that accepted it would take a long time
but there are those that wanted it all
Parts of the former USSR then, are now doing great
other parts are not
things don't instantly magically happen
(as for the American Revolution, it took the slaughtering of the vast majority of Native Americans, and the robbing of their property and land to get to the point of the so called revolution.
as they said in the 1960s
and its 1-2-3 what are we fighting for?
what are today's rebels w/o a cause fighting for?
and how will they achieve it?
They tore it down in 1968, and its taking 40 years to start building it back up
and people again are making the mistakes of 1968 and will take us then another 45 years after if they were to succede.
(i.e.-the right above means those that tossed LBJ in the river, should have looked at the big picture,and what doing so meant to the next 40 years.)
Damn the LBJ haters.
