Grey Champions and the Election of 2016
#69
I thunk S&H misunderstood the nature of the last 2T by overemphasizing the stereotypical hippie countercultural stuff Eric loves so much, which caused them to completely miss the greater trend the 2T inaugurated, that of increasing popular opposition to everything "establishment", and increasing resentment against having their lives controlled by paternalistic social-engineering. The Counterculture on the Left and the anti-government rage against the "Nanny State" on the Right are one in the same thing, the rejection of the social trends of the Great Power Saeculum, which had favored increasing centralization and control of society by technocrats.

The Millennial Saeculum can be summed up by "I am not a number, I am a free man!"
