    I think what’s happening in the US today rhymes hard on the fall of the Roman Republic.

    And I’m sorry, but I don’t think the people won back then.

      I do agree. Overall humanity lost big time as many who resisted died and/or were enslaved, but in the long run society healed and we had another peaceful era. If the 4th Turning theory is correct this is just how it goes.
