Culture Wars Era - is it moving into its final phase?

[David Horn]

Without quoting Steve's post, I have to agree with the general thrust.  Even more to the point, I don't see the 4T resolving in normal fashion, with a near stand-off between the two visions for Future America being proposed models but not actual solutions.  Maybe this is due to my long-held view that the generational assembly during this 4T isn't up to resolving anything.  The 1T will arrive, and a truce, of sorts, will quell any further action by either side.  The 1T will muddle along, with the two sides cloistered in their urban and rural settings, neither able to bring the other along, but both able to survive in their enclaves.

The next 2T will drag all this out into the public square, and a resolution will finally emerge.  If the call to the barricades is triggered by an environmental catastrophe, the resolution is predictable.  Otherwise, its up for grabs.
