You are expecting another trigger? The boomers are going to age out of power soon, ending the window for the prophet - nomad - civic constellation of generations. With crisis war triggers rare to impossible given nukes, that leaves the chance of something else blowing up to a trigger low. After COVUS 19 is suppressed, the materialist selfish faction is going to want to shift rapidly into a high.
I’m not seeing another trigger coming along as likely. I was already working out what happens if a crisis configuration goes by without a trigger, which was looking likely until COVUS 19. What do you anticipate?
It may be that having Trump bollox this up as badly as he has will be the needed impetus for real change. That never happened last time, and there's a tiny window where it may this time. The only real limitation: the US Constitution. It's nearly impossible to amend and many of the problems we have as a nation are due directly to the imbalance in power between urban and rural. We won't have the option of secession amendments this time.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
