So Trump isn't THAT BAD?
#5
I wrote the material in response to someone whom I am not mentioning. That person is welcome to say who it is.


The 2T is innocuous to the extent that those taking the Voyage to the Interior recognize that reason is necessary for making sense of the journey and that that voyage is best done with an intent to offer some interesting 'tales of the traveler'. So if someone gets psychedelic visions and can put them into coherent form for the entertainment of others, then such is wonderful. But much of the Voyage to the Interior involves a deep dive into booze and hallucinogens.

If there were ever a Golden Age it would be one of a balance between the positive virtues of all four turnings with none of the vices. That is a pipe dream. We are stuck with the generational cycle a s a way of compelling us to adapt to the time and respond as quickly as possible to a needful trait that we neglect. Bad as a 3T goes, it at least forces us to pay attention to the children again so that they not become cynical and helpless and that people enjoy some hedonistic delights that give them some memories just in time for recollection for the upcoming era of stark deprivation.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
