Antoun,

The violence is already here, it's just the usual anarchy. I don't see a line of confrontation between the political sides. The rainbow coalition might chain themselves to a fence and if some NGO is funding them, burn some buildings, but the people with the guns are on the other side and they are mostly threatened with economic collapse. They are the ones all the divide and conquer is being aimed at, but the only consequence has been to boycott various brands, like Budwieser.

The fact is, the core of any culture are those who reproduce, or the culture dies. So trying to upset that element is bound to fail. You would think that if the Catholic Church could have normalized pedophilia, they certainly would, as it would have reduced a lot of the problems they have had, the last several generations.

As for the current left, right divide, it does seem a lot of it is hormones, with men on the right and women on the left.

Yet from an organic perspective, women are naturally more conservative than men, as they need that sense of a strong community to even want to have babies. The fact society has been reduced to economic units for our banker overloads has destroyed that core cultural sense of the village. Which is a big part of why birth rates are dropping all around the world. There is just no instinctive sense of a healthy situation to have and raise kids. They are just units to be fed into the machine.

Meanwhile the men have lost the normal productive jobs that give them a strong sense of identity and community. So the stuff is made in some other part of the world and it's all about the salesmanship. Hollywood and hasbara.

An incredibly hollow bubble. Built around history's largest financial bubble, of notational assets with increasingly less tangible value.

Artificial Intelligence being the latest wave.

So you see why just a total collapse might not be a bad thing, in the long run? Those who do make it through, will be tested.

Those who learn to work together, not just be their own egos.
