The stench of moral decay, especially in politics, is creeping across America

It goes further than that.  The US has tons of hangups and moral panics about all sorts of stuff. There's sex, drugs, SJW horseshit,and social conservative horseshit. I rather doubt Millies have a monopoly on any of the above crap.

Excellent point. Millies have an innate sense of right and wrong that's either a bit too perfect (see wokeness as the prime example) or distorted by their less than ideal life experience.  In a way, these can be melded together and reworked into a new moral code that actually values decency and punishes misbehavior in accordance with the damage it inflicts on society in general and individuals in particular.  Of course, can is not the same as will.  

This 4T may play out on that battlefield.  If so, it beats the hell out of fighting on a real one.  I would like to be around to see it.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
