This is a tough call: One would have thought that 9/11 would have marked the start of the 4T - but not only have the Culture Wars not ended since then, but the Culture Wars have actually intensified (whether or not to receive the COVID vaccination is the most bizarre and ridiculous "culture war" issue of all).
I can't see how we are going to evade a Second Civil War - and since the "Mexican War and Sectionalism" 3T was clearly shorter than it should have been while this 3T was not, the Second Civil War is going to be far deadlier than the first, if for no other reason that the civil war will be nationwide, instead of confined to the nation's southeast quadrant, the way the original one was.
