Democracy is the political phase before revolution. The “Get Out And Vote” campaign was a direct attack on the republic. Even women’s suffrage was explained as a dent in the structure if they too don’t pay the price of poor democratic judgement by being drafted to war. When you zoom out across centuries you see how the civilizations before us have fallen to the same trap. We do it over and over. Humans doing human things, even after starting fresh among new opportunities. The fourth turning is about the amnesia of our species. I realized that religion is the best tool to carry deep lessons and social memory across generations. But even that has its risks of abuse and failure to properly deliver guidance. What to do.
