So many of us have been accused on here of wanting a Glorious Revolution. Let's get out with it!

163. During the end of the Victorian era through all of the Edwardian era

During the end of the Victorian era through all of the Edwardian era, Britain went through enormous political, economic and social upheavals-- not through revolution, but through law. Additionally, the mere act of revolution has, in so many cases, been the catalyst for even more repression, more violence, and more tumult rather than the end of them.



In short: I've stopped expecting contemporary Americans to have any sense of historicity as it does so interfere with the quick-fix mentality far too many of us seem to have. I've stopped expecting many Americans to consistently apply critical thought on top of historical theory in favor of simply yelling on the internet.

We are indeed free to be ineffectual, petulant, sub-literate idiots yelling to no avail whilst pretending to be well-thought, well-read, well-intentioned citizens.
